“I identify as…”
Few phrases have travelled the internet quite like it.
It’s been serious, satirical, misunderstood, debated, memed, weaponised, reclaimed, repeated and remixed more times than anyone can count.
Most brands avoid it.
I Identify As™ runs straight at it.
Not to mock identity.
Not to mock people.
But to celebrate the everyday chaos people actually identify with.
Because most of the time, people aren’t identifying as anything deep or political.
They’re identifying as:
• tired
• overwhelmed
• hungry
• running late
• socially drained
• one email away from switching their phone off
That’s the real human experience.
And that’s exactly where I Identify As™ lives.
The brand leans into the phrase because it already belongs to the culture.
People use it to describe their mood, their vibe, their personality — not their politics.
So I Identify As™ turns that energy into humour.
Humour that punches sideways, never down.
Humour that reflects real life, real people, real chaos.
Identity isn’t always serious.
Sometimes it’s just a mood.
Sometimes it’s just a moment.
Sometimes it’s just the most accurate way to describe how someone feels right now.
And that’s why I Identify As™ exists.
To turn chaos into connection.
To turn everyday mayhem into something people can laugh at.
To reclaim a loaded phrase and make it light‑hearted, relatable and human.
Because at the end of the day, identity doesn’t always have to be deep.
Sometimes it’s just a T‑shirt that makes someone smile.
And that’s exactly the point.
