rinse after saltwater or chlorine• wash cold • hang dry (no heat) • no bleach/softeners • do not dry clean or iron
avoid contact with rough surfaces and velcro fasteners as they can pull out the fibers in the fabric, damaging its appearance.

the inspiration

inspired by Elijah Kalā McShane’s reminder to live pono. pono means balance and doing what’s right—this shirt is a small cue to practice that, every day. may this shirt bring a little balance and peace to your day.
