Wood-grain texture, faded color, a lobster rendered with the kind of character that only comes from age — this is the vintage coastal aesthetic working exactly the way it should. A lobster tee that looks like it came from a fishing village general store that doesn't have a website. Printed on garment-dyed cotton that carries that same sun-worn, salt-treated quality. Authentic. Earned. Permanently casual.
Built on 100% ring-spun US cotton — individually garment-dyed so the color pools at the seams, fades at the edges, and makes every shirt one of a kind. Pre-washed, pre-shrunk, and already broken in from day one. Gets softer with every wash.

Classic crew neck, short sleeves
100% ring-spun US cotton
