The black t-shirt base provides a versatile canvas that pairs easily with jeans or work aprons. Available in standard unisex sizing, this shirt fits most adult men comfortably, making it a reliable option for gifting without needing precise measurements.

How should I care for this graphic tee?

To ensure print preservation, machine wash the shirt cold inside out. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to maintain the fabric shape and color integrity.
