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

Meet your neighbors before you need them. The introduction is easier over a fence on a normal Tuesday than through a door at two in the morning when something has gone wrong, and the person in the tee learned four names on the fence side of that choice. Knowing four names on your street is infrastructure. This tee is a nudge to go say hello now.

Wear it to the block party, the fence on a Tuesday, the new neighbor's welcome, the community garden, and the family dinner where a relative admits they do not know anyone on the street. It is a warm gift for a new homeowner, a block captain, a welcome committee member, and the friend who knows four names.

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 fence on a Tuesday. 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 four-names entry on our mutual aid and solidarity 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.

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.
