‘Don’t Mistake Legibility for Communication’ — David Carson Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Literary Tee — Oversized Tee

“Don’t mistake legibility for communication.” David Carson, a professional surfer before he was a designer, ran the 1990s magazine Ray Gun as a controlled explosion of overlapping type and torn grids. When one interview bored him, he set the whole thing in the symbol font Zapf Dingbats — unreadable, and still the most talked-about page in the issue.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
