A love letter, shortened to its unfortunate conclusion.

A large gray heart sits at the center of the shirt and reads LIFE IS SUFFERING. The shape offers reassurance. The message has reviewed the available information and declined.

The graphic uses the same faded gray tones found throughout Drop 001. Its worn texture keeps the heart from feeling polished or sentimental, while the cropped silhouette gives the oversized graphic enough room to become the entire point.

The back is left blank except for a small metal ring at the collar. Nothing further needed to be added. The heart had already said plenty.

A romantic gesture for people with realistic expectations.

  • Individually numbered and limited to 50 pieces total
  • Black (long) cropped short-sleeve shirt
  • Raw edge, will roll slightly after washing
  • Large LIFE IS SUFFERING heart graphic
  • Distressed gray print
  • Clean, unprinted back
  • Small metal ring detail at the back collar
  • Coordinates with the Suffering Hat

THE SHIRT

Based on the best-fitting vintage band tee ever owned.

Most merch begins with the artwork. The shirt underneath is an afterthought. We wanted the opposite: a shirt worth wearing even before anything was printed on it.

Built to capture the feel of a favorite vintage band shirt, it starts with heavyweight 6.1 oz cotton that feels substantial without being stiff. The fabric is garment-dyed for softened color and lived-in character, while the relaxed fit feels comfortable without being excessively oversized.

Each shirt is designed, hand-printed, and finished in Denver, Colorado. It’s made from 100% ring-spun, pre-shrunk cotton, reinforced with double-needle stitching, and finished with a black D-ring at the back. Black on black, because black is the only valid color.

  • 100% ring-spun, pre-shrunk cotton

  • Soft, garment-dyed fabric
  • Lived-in look and feel
  • Relaxed unisex fit
  • Double-needle stitching
  • Black D-ring at the back
  • Designed & hand-printed in Denver, CO
