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 American lotus
Nelumbo lutea (Willd.) Pers.
American lotus grows in shallow freshwater, sending stout stems and broad round leaves up from rhizomes in the mud. Large pale-yellow flowers later give way to the distinctive seed heads often compared to showerheads. NC State Extension
