For Fats & Queers, and Everyone Else, Too!
We started Shift + Wheeler because we were tired of slow fashion that forgot about us (fat and queer people). So we just started making stuff for ourselves. Turns out other people liked it, too! Dresses, tops, skirts, bags, and more … all made in our little studio in Astoria, Oregon, USA.
Our products are made from linen, denim, cotton, waxed canvas, and leather. Real materials that last. Sizing from S–5XL.
Fats and queers are our people. But we think everyone deserves clothes and bags made with care, built to last, and designed for all kinds of bodies.

This dress is so beautiful and easy to wear. I bought the same one for my daughter who is 4 inches shorter than I am and somehow it looks good on both of us.
Love the fabric, substantial but not too thick. Fit is great - be sure to read how to measure instructions). Planning on a trip to Astoria and will certainly stop and shop !
This dress is already a staple in my wardrobe. It’s beautiful and functional and I love both the natural materials and that is made locally.
I love this store! The clothes are really unique and well made. Just beautiful! There are lots of other fun little items too. I bought a couple gifts when I was there. The bandanas are very cool and chic. Great store and super friendly owner and staff. I will be back for sure!
Who doesn’t love critical thinking? Fun sticker. Good quality. Right up my alley!
Love the tote! Bought it during my cruise in Astoria and would also love to buy the shoulder bag, unfortunately not available with shipping to Germany - see u next time:)
Beautiful and very well made! We look forward to having this displayed in our home, and taking it on trips as our "camp flag" when we go on getaways with our friends! A new tradition is born.
Taking class at college and just cut out the overalls on Monday evening. Love the fabric!
I absolutely love Shift & Wheeler designs! The bags and clothes are stylish, made incredibly well, and last! I highly recommend!
I LOVE supporting a small local business run by such accepting, creative, values driven people!! I needed a replacement bag for work /running around, and this is perfect. Fits a laptop, wallet, book, notepad, keys. The straps are long enough to throw over your shoulder, but not so long that it’s awkward to carry by hand when overstuffed stuffed with farmers' market finds. Beautifully made, with a cool lining and two outside pockets.
The only downside is the one big interior compartment can turn into a full-on Mary Poppins bag situation, with everything disappearing to the bottom. But that’s pretty much user error. Thanks S&W!
How fabulous is this!?
This is the bag of all time. I walked into the shop and it selected me. I imprinted upon this bag. Everything about it is wonderful, love that it’s handmade and that the space lets you see a bit of the artists studio. You have to acquire this bag. Stop reading my review and buy it
Absolutely love this bag! It’s the perfect size.
We returned and bought two dresses and a linen top. Fantastic fit and design. Thank you Becky!
Great shop with very friendly and helpful staff! I had so much fun in there. And the labels were a big hit as a small gift. Thank you!
