“Calls Take the Scenic Route” — Heavyweight Unisex Crewneck T-shirt

Classic regular unisex fit with set-in sleeves, a rib-knit collar and taped neck and shoulders. Solid colours are 100% cotton; heathers are cotton-polyester blends. Heavyweight 6.0 oz/yd² (203 g/m²) jersey.

Design story & product details

A large communications satellite is drawn at a tilt across the design. It has an off-white dish ruled with fine navy grid lines and blue solar panels at both ends. Heavy blackletter wraps tightly around it and reads Calls Take the Scenic Route. It’s a dry joke about every call that lags, echoes or drops, blamed on a signal that bounces off something in orbit.

The engraving-style riveted body is the detail that makes this heavyweight crewneck tee worth owning. It’s a good gift for a ham radio operator.

Classic regular unisex fit with set-in sleeves, a rib-knit collar and taped neck and shoulders.

Artwork on the front and the back, as shown in the photos.

Care

  • Machine wash cold, inside out, on a gentle cycle with like colours.
  • Use non-chlorine bleach only when needed; tumble dry low or hang dry.
  • Do not iron the print and do not dry clean.
