About This Design

rivers T-Shirt

rivers T-Shirt

still waters run deep I can be quite reserved with people I don't know very well My mother met Langston Hughes when she was in college. It boggles my mind now to think of it. He was truly a great poet. My mother also had a real fascination for rivers. (She hated roses(!), but that's another story). She was raised in St. Louis on the Mississippi River. Her favourite piece of music was Paul Robeson singing Ol' Man River. She asked us to play it at her memorial, and we did. I bought the CD myself here in Durham at Offbeat Music, and I still have it. She asked us to spread her ashes along a river in the Ozarks where she'd spent childhood summers, and we did. This is all almost straight out of Faulkner, but that was my mother. For these reasons, and in spite of some of them, I think this is a beautiful poem.

I give wanted to give this a 4 instead of a 5 because these Basic DARK T0shirts run unexpectedly SLIM or Narrow. Which is great if you do not have a potbelly, but I have a paunch. It isn't the shirt's fault that I've got a beer belly. The design and shirt itself is a quality cotton shirt. The color is more of a deep purple, but still a very pretty color. The Basic DARK T-shirts run a bit SLIMMER than the Basic Ts. The neck is a fraction narrower (or seems to be narrower) also. I'm a paunchy middle-aged woman and my neck is 12 inches (31cm) thick and the neckline fell about the same as in the photo of the man, and I had the desire to tug it a bit. So if you're a thick necked man or like loose shirts, be aware these are slimmer shirts. Once I get rid of my lockdown paunch it'll look great. The shirt washed well in cold water with no apparent bleeding. We don't have a dryer, so it hung dry. Did not shrink. Love the colors and the design. The design looks smaller on my shirt than it does on the model on-line. But still, it looks good on the shirt. The printing looks as it does on the model, just the size seems fractionally smaller. Washed garment in cold water, hung dry and design appeared unaffected.

I'm wearing this as I type... It's fab! Lovely quality. Soft material, perfect fit, nice and warm (It is very cold here, I live at the top of a hill and the wind is brutal in winter). Couldn't be happier with this. My Girlfriend really likes it as well - always a bonus! I was really impressed by how the printing turned out - my photo's don't do it justice. This is a complex design with a lot of colour variations but the finished article is really impressive. I couldn't be happier with how this has turned out. This is also one of my first designs to have been purchased by someone else (thank you so much!) I'm really curious to know what they think of the finished product...
