Red hearts are for people who actually love something. Orange is for Minnesota, where the official emotional setting is "it's fine, I suppose." Six months of winter, two weeks of road construction, and a mosquito population that could carry off a toddler? Yeah. Orange feels about right.
This is the shirt for anyone who complains about the cold every single January and then absolutely refuses to move anywhere else. You tolerate the slush. You defend hotdish to outsiders. You say "ope" fifty times a day and spend twenty minutes saying goodbye in a driveway at negative four degrees. That is not love, exactly. That is something warmer than a lake in May and cooler than a deep fryer at the state fair. That is orange.
Cut from soft, durable fabric that holds its shape through everything from lake weekends to shoveling the driveway again. Comfortable enough to live in, sturdy enough to survive every season this state throws at you, which is roughly nine of them.
