A muscular man wearing a light gray “we were a poem, not a plan” T-shirt sits in a camping chair in a sunlit forest.
 
Hey Guys, Upton here. Growing up, I was surrounded by poetry. My favorite poem is still ‘Mother to Son’ by Langston Hughes. It’s a powerful poem about struggle and survival, and it speaks to my spirit. My scars are reminders of how strong I was against something I faced. This shirt is a symbol of resilience, and it’s a message for anyone who knows what it means to be a survivor. It’s a screen-printed poem that resonates with you, and it supports an NGLC business, a certified gay-owned business, and a bilingual screen-reader-adapted blog. This one will haunt you long after the shirt hits the dryer from my metal heart to your closet with love. Upton

 STITCHED TO OUTLAST YOUR NEXT SITUATIONSHIP
 
 
Look—this thing holds its shape better than your ex’s excuses. Ribbed knit collar, tapered shoulders, dual side seams. It fits right and stays right. Wash it. Sleep in it. Fuck in it. It’s not going anywhere.
