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 stapelia
Stapelia L.
Stapelias are clump-forming succulents whose thick stems do most of the visual work. The shoots may be rounded or sharply four-angled, smooth or hairy. Their tiny leaf rudiments are short-lived. Flowers arise near the bases of the stems, sometimes singly and sometimes several together. Kew: Stapelia, Flora Zambesiaca and Flora of Tropical East Africa
