Our Story

Born in Brazil in 2015, Usedons was founded with a simple mission: to create T-shirts for Catholic youth groups. What began as a small initiative soon revealed a greater purpose.

Jefferson de Oliveira, founder and owner of Usedons, enjoyed designing Catholic T-shirts for the youth group he coordinated, as well as for other Catholic groups he was involved with. One day, after creating a design with the phrase “I belong to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,” he realized there was a much greater demand than expected. It was not only young people from church who wanted the shirt — many others were also looking for clothing that expressed their faith in a meaningful and authentic way.

As time went on, the desire to build a truly Catholic brand became stronger. With five original designs, Usedons began selling through youth groups, Facebook, and the internet.

Through dedication, creativity, and consistent work, the brand continued to grow. With new, original, and often lighthearted designs, Usedons became recognized first across its home state, and then throughout Brazil. Today, we proudly serve customers across the entire country, and we continue to dream bigger — reaching beyond Brazil to places like the United States and Europe.

Catholic fashion has been growing steadily within the Christian market, especially among young people seeking apparel that reflects their faith with a modern, stylish, and inspiring identity. Many had difficulty finding Catholic clothing that felt youthful, attractive, and authentically evangelizing. Usedons was created to help fill that space.

More than simply offering church apparel, Marian devotion shirts, saint-inspired designs, Catholic hoodies, and other faith-based pieces, our mission is deeper. We want to be an instrument of God in the lives of young people. We want our clothing to communicate holiness, joy, and conviction.

Inspired by the words often attributed to Saint Francis of Assisi — “Preach the Gospel at all times. When necessary, use words.” — we believe our shirts can also be a form of witness. Through evangelizing messages and the life we live, we hope to inspire others to encounter Christ. Our desire is that not only the shirt, but also the way we live, may speak of faith.

We are Usedons.

Wear and Evangelize.
