South Africans took to the comments section to express their thoughts, saying:

Missy Law said:

"R200 making is expensive; you can buy the T-shirts 2 for R90 at @goingunder clothing and have them printed for R50 each in bulk. But that’s in Cape Town though."

Leon OomVanAfrika added:

"I would pay R350 because of your purpose behind it. Just keep in mind what delivery is going to cost non-locals to get one."

Gladys Buhlebendalo raved over her saying:

"Wow you're so beautiful @Rachel John."

LuuInLife wrote:

"R350 is reasonable because y’all will make a R150 profit."

Busy Lizzie expressed:

"R350 is not too much! This is the average price of a tshirt at cotton on. Maybe add a little pamphlet in with the story behind the organization. Love the design!!"

Nolwandle (Goddess of the Sea) replied:

"Your hair is beautiful, they just jealous."
