I Bring My Own Chalk: Lifting and Gym Bag Tee

Some rooms ban it outright. Some have a shared bucket you would rather not put a hand into. So people who lift seriously carry their own block, in their own bag, and the inside of that bag is white forever.

Outside a gym it lands somewhere charming. A pool hall, a snooker player, a teacher, somebody eccentric about stationery. The wrong picture is gentle, which is why this one gives so well.

Filed as a DECLARED EQUIPMENT label with ONE BLOCK beneath it. Declaring a single block of chalk as equipment, on a form, is funnier than any picture of it would be.

What it is

• Unisex softstyle tee, 4.5 oz/yd² (153 g/m²)
• 100% ring-spun cotton in the solid colors. Sport Grey is a 90% cotton, 10% polyester blend, and Dark Heather is 65% polyester, 35% cotton
• Double stitched neckline and sleeves, side seamed, tear away label
• Sizes S through 3XL
• Fourteen colors. Seven light ones printed in near black ink, seven dark ones printed in cream

Where it comes from

Custom printed in the USA. Every shirt is printed here, one at a time, on a soft cotton blank woven overseas.

Nothing is printed until you order it, so nothing sits in a warehouse and nothing gets thrown away.

Getting it to you

Free US shipping on orders $45 and up. Under that it is a flat $8.00. We make it after you order it, which takes 2 to 5 business days, and it then takes 3 to 4 business days to reach you from a US facility. Most orders arrive in 5 to 9 business days. You get a tracking number by email as soon as the label is created.

Care

Machine wash cold, inside out, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print.

The Natural colorway

Natural has small dark speckles through the fabric. That is the undyed cotton showing, and it is expected rather than a fault.
