DipaliZ 2b or not 2b Unisex Jersey Tee Ribbed Knit Collars

This DipaliZ wordplay tee is a unisex jersey short sleeve t-shirt in 100% Airlume combed and ringspun cotton. The design sets a pencil alongside the phrase 2B or not 2B, a joke about pencil grades rather than existence. The shirt is made in white only, in sizes S through 3XL. Sketchers, English teachers and anyone who owns a tin of graded pencils will enjoy it.

The story behind this design

The pencil is drawn at a diagonal with the sharpened end pointing into the text, so the object physically introduces the line. Its hexagonal barrel is rendered with two flat tones and one bright edge, enough to read as a pencil without turning into a technical illustration. The 2B is set in the same grey as the graphite tip, a quiet connection between the joke and the drawing.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What is the 2B or not 2B joke?
A: 2B is a pencil grade, so the design turns the Hamlet line into a joke about graphite hardness.

Q: What colour is this tee?
A: White is the only colour made.

Q: What fabric and sizes are used?
A: The tee is 100% Airlume combed and ringspun cotton in sizes S to 3XL.

Q: Would this suit an art student?
A: Yes. The joke depends on knowing pencil grades, which makes it a natural gift for illustrators, sketchers and art students.
