Your Ring Is in the Trap: Plumber Tee

The P trap holds a plug of water that blocks sewer gas, and it also catches everything small that goes down a lavatory drain. A wedding ring that went down the sink is almost always sitting in the bend.

Out of context it sounds ominous. A threat, a betrayal, a line from a film, and the word trap does all of that on its own. What it actually describes is the most gratitude a plumber gets in a year: pulling the trap and handing the ring back.

Filed as a work order note with LAVATORY DRAIN REASSEMBLED underneath, because that is the other half of the job. It is one of the few in this set a customer would buy.

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.
