Care Guide
Care Guide
Because a literary quote this iconic deserves to look first-edition fresh.
- Wash and dry your tee inverted to keep ink as sharp as Darcy’s wit.
- Cool water + mild detergent = no fading tragedies.
- Fewer spin cycles mean fewer plot twists for the fabric.
- Line-dry whenever possible. If you must tumble, don’t pair with heavy tomes like jeans or hoodies.
- Iron inside out on low heat; never place the hot iron directly on the printed line.
Follow these steps and your Fiction Threads tee will stay vibrant long past the final chapter.
Wear the enduring fire of determination with this bold “To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield” t-shirt, drawn from Alfred Lord Tennyson’s powerful poem Ulysses. With a minimalist mountain graphic and clean typography, this design captures the spirit of resilience and the unyielding pursuit of meaning — a mantra for adventurers, dreamers, and doers alike.
Penned in 1833, Tennyson’s Ulysses reflects the poet's own grief and longing to push forward in life despite sorrow. This stirring final line, spoken by the aging hero Odysseus, has inspired generations — from students to mountaineers, astronauts to poets. Whether you're navigating real summits or metaphorical ones, this shirt reminds you (and others) never to surrender your inner quest.
