Design story & product details

Printed flat onto a long sleeve tee, the fine etched linework stays sharp. You can see every frosted vein in the ice and every link of the carabiner rack, the way you would on an engraving. Climbers will get the joke right away. A man hangs from two ice axes under a dripping roof of ice with his crampons kicking at air, and the frozen lettering admits that vertical was the easy part.

The overhang is the punchline. It suits the friend who spends winter weekends chasing frozen waterfalls.
