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 hammock velvetseed

Guettarda elliptica Sw.

Hammock velvetseed grows as a shrub or small tree, commonly around 2–3 m tall in the Bahamian account but capable of reaching about 7 m. Its leaves occur in opposite pairs, with small triangular stipules occupying the space between their stalks. These paired leaves give the slender branches an orderly appearance.
