The Rainbow Hand image on a long sleeve, heather blue t shirt by Disorder. The inspiration for the Rainbow Hand long sleeve tshirt is from the Hand of Fatima symbol, which is  believed to provide protection from the evil eye.   The origin of the Hand symbol predates Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Therefore, the Rainbow Hand symbol is a symbol of unity that belongs to us all.

After you place your order,  we print your t shirt, this is done to minimize clothing waste. Therefore, helping us to reduce our impact on the environment and make our brand more sustainable.

The history of the hand symbol is a long and fascinating one. Its use as a sign to protect predates Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Typically, the hand symbol is represented by the open right hand, an image recognized and used as a sign of protection in many societies throughout history. The Hand symbol is believed to provide defense against the evil eye. In Islam, it is also known as the hand of Fatima, so named to commemorate Muhammad’s daughter Fatima Zahra (c. 605 or 615 – 633). In addition, the Levantine Christians call it the hand of Mary, for the Virgin Mary. Furthermore, Jews refer to it as the hand of Miriam in remembrance of the biblical Miriam, sister of Moses and Aaron.

To summarize, we can trace the origins of this ancient symbol, long into our history. Therefore, Disorder believes it doesn’t belong to any one group exclusively, it belong to us all.  I see the Rainbow Hand as a powerful symbol of unity and protection for all against the evil eye.
