Rhode Island: the state so small you can drive across it during one podcast episode, yet somehow every trip still involves a bridge, a toll, and a guy in a sedan doing 85 in the breakdown lane. You love it. It also broke your heart roughly nine thousand times, and this shirt says both at once.
Wear it when the beach parking costs more than your rent, when the clam cakes are somehow all dough, when a nor'easter cancels everything but the potholes, and when someone from "up north" acts like a 25 minute drive is an expedition across the tundra. Coffee milk fixes a lot. It does not fix the February gray or the summer bridge traffic. Hence the busted little heart.
Cut from soft, mid weight fabric that actually holds its shape, with a smooth print that survives the wash cycle and the clam shack grease. Comfortable enough for errands, sturdy enough for the whole shoulder season, and perfectly acceptable attire for complaining about your home state while refusing to leave it.
