Style: Short Sleeve
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 feltleaf willow
Salix alaxensis (Andersson) Coville
Feltleaf willow is often among the first tall shrubs to occupy a new river gravel bar. Its tiny seeds arrive by wind or water and germinate rapidly on moist mineral soil. Broken stems can also root when buried in damp sediment, allowing floods to carry both seeds and living pieces of the plant downstream. US Forest Service FEIS: Salix alaxensis
Bloom window
Interior Alaska
In interior Alaska’s lowlands, catkins appear from mid-April to mid-May, before the leaves; alpine plants may flower as late as mid-June. US Fish and Wildlife Service: Willows of Interior Alaska
Native range
Its native range joins Siberia and the Russian Far East with Alaska and northern Canada. It favors bright, open sites, especially riverbanks, floodplain deposits and other recently disturbed ground; shade from later forest growth can eventually suppress it.
