Description
This women's tee is made from 6.1 oz 100% ring-spun US cotton in a boxy, slightly cropped mid-length cut. It features a topstitched ribbed collar, shoulder-to-shoulder twill tape, a seamless body, and a double-needle bottom hem. Dyed with OEKO-TEX certified low-impact dyes in a WRAP-certified facility, using a salt-free clean pigment process that uses about half the water of conventional pigment dyeing. Boxy fit, sizes S–2XL — it runs close to the body, so size up for a looser drape. Slight shade variation between garments is normal.

Meet Acadian quillwort
Isoetes tuckermanii subsp. acadiensis (Kott) D.F.Brunt.
Acadian quillwort grows as a compact rosette of narrow leaves rooted beneath pond and lake water, less often in rivers. Spores develop inside the widened leaf bases. In Maine, its habitat includes gravel, sand or mud, usually beneath acidic water; maintaining water quality and natural hydrology helps protect these populations.
