"I Orange Heart Vermont" Tee

Red hearts are for people who love beaches and chain restaurants. Orange is for the ones who know what October does to these mountains. You've white-knuckled a dirt road in mud season, paid eleven bucks for a jug of syrup from a guy named after his own barn, and defended your position that cheddar should be sharp enough to draw blood. Orange is foliage season, it's blaze vests in November, it's the pumpkin-colored glow of a general store at 4:45pm when the sun has already clocked out for the day. This is for the person who sees a tour bus full of leaf peepers clogging up a scenic pull-off and feels a confusing mix of rage and civic pride. You live here. You earned the orange. The flatlanders just rented it for a weekend. Cut from soft, substantial fabric that holds its shape through sugaring season, stick season, and that fake spring in March that lies to everyone. Comfortable enough for a long drive, durable enough to survive your washing machine and your lifestyle.
