How to measure
Lay a tee you already own flat. Length runs collar seam to hem. Width is armpit to armpit. Sleeve goes shoulder seam to cuff. Match those to the chart. Between two sizes, size up for room.
Care
Machine wash cold, max 30°C / 86°F. Non-chlorine bleach only when needed. Tumble dry low. Do not iron. Do not dry-clean.
Good to know
Specially spun fibres create a strong, smooth surface that prints clean. Cut tubular-knit in one piece with no side seams, it holds its shape and cuts fabric waste. The ribbed collar is seamless and highly elastic, keeping its shape wash after wash. Twill tape over the shoulder seams stabilizes the back and prevents stretching. Printed Direct-to-Garment on 5.3 oz 100% US cotton, true black. Ethically grown cotton under the US Cotton Trust Protocol, Oeko-Tex certified.
The kite in the thunderstorm is the story everyone knows, and historians still argue about whether he actually flew it. What is not in doubt is the lightning rod that came out of the work, which he refused to patent on the grounds that useful things should belong to everybody. Franklin ran a print shop, built a postal service, talked France into a war, and never once became president. The man contained a great deal. Some of it was smoke. For people who do their best thinking sideways.
A Benjamin Franklin graphic tee for history readers, science fans, and anyone whose best ideas arrive off the clock. Franklin in spectacles and a colonial coat, kite string in one hand and something rolled and lit in the other. A gift for history buffs, printers, tinkerers, and the pleasantly unbothered.
