Design story & product details

The word Yes is brushed in rough red-orange and slanted hard forward. The rest follows in heavy navy capitals: the pole is supposed to bend. Every vaulter has given that answer to a worried relative in the stands. Beside the words, an engraved, cross-hatched vaulter seen from behind hangs from a long red-orange arc of pole on this oversized heavyweight tee.

Track people will notice the red spike plate turned up toward them, with its black spikes showing. The shirt suits a high school pole vaulter heading to the state meet.
