A soft, lived-in tee for people who find refuge in pages and quiet corners. This heavyweight garment-dyed cotton T-shirt wears the sentiment plainly on the chest: “READER NEEDS: 1. MORE BOOKS 2. LESS PEOPLE.” The relaxed cut and muted, broken-in color make it feel like an old favorite from the first wear. Slip it on for slow mornings with coffee, library runs, or evenings curled up with a new title. It’s for the booklover who prefers the company of stories and wants clothing that quietly says so without shouting. The subtle print and classic crewneck let it pair with jeans, cardigans, or a cozy cardigan-and-socks setup for reading marathons.
