Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

A search engine used to work. You typed a question and got pages made by people who knew the answer, and now you get a confident summary of something nobody wrote, stacked on ads and stitched from whatever was cheapest to copy, and the librarian in the tee remembers the old version. Finding things out was a solved problem. This tee misses it.

Wear it to the library reference desk, the journalism school, the tech conference, the research office, and the family dinner where a relative reads the summary aloud as fact. It is a good gift for a reference librarian, a researcher, a fact-checker, and the friend who scrolls past the summary.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a research office. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the solved-problem entry on our anti-AI movement page.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Common questions

Did search really work better before? You got pages written by people. The librarian wearing it can demonstrate the difference in one query.

Would a research office order these? Offices do. Every shirt is printed to order. Any mix of sizes, one order.

Which color do librarians pick? Graphite and Chambray. Ivory for the conference.

How does the 1717 fit? True to size, relaxed body. Order your usual.

Wear it to: the all-hands where they announce the new tool, the studio, the classroom, the town meeting about the data center.

Fabric and fit

Comfort Colors 1717: 6.1 oz 100 percent ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed and soft-washed so it feels broken in from the first wear. Relaxed unisex fit, true to size, S to 4XL in eight colors. Double-needle stitching, no side seams, sewn-in label.

Measurements for every size are on the size and fit guide.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
