I'm Late I Didn't Want to Come

About This Item

This DipaliZ tee is a unisex softstyle cotton T-shirt carrying the line: sorry I am late, I did not want to come. The shirt is made from 100% ring-spun US cotton, chosen for a lighter drape than a heavyweight tee. The whole design is the sentence, set in two weights so the apology and the admission read as separate thoughts. It is worn most often by the reluctant party guest, and it makes a reliable gift for the friend who cancels plans.

The story behind this design

The two clauses are set in contrasting weights, a light apologetic script for the first and a blunt sans-serif for the second, so the sentence turns on itself halfway through. Nothing is illustrated; the change in typeface carries the entire joke. The ink is kept to one warm charcoal that sits comfortably on grey, white and the undyed natural cotton alike.
