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 Appalachian gooseberry
Ribes rotundifolium Michx.
Appalachian gooseberry is a woody shrub of rich, rocky woodland. Its greenish-yellow flowers can be easy to overlook among the leaves, but their projecting stamens give them a distinctive, delicate outline. Compared with Missouri gooseberry, this species has shorter prickles and smaller blossoms. Native Plant Trust Go Botany: Ribes rotundifolium
