I'm Not Afraid of Ghosts, I Work in a Shelter Shirt

Nothing in a haunted house compares to a Saturday intake.

This one's for shelter and rescue people. The staff, the volunteers, the fosters, the transport drivers, the ones running the kennel at 6am and answering the surrender calls at 5pm. You've seen things a horror movie wouldn't dare put on screen, and you came back the next day anyway.

Angie has spent nearly 40 years in canine behavior, including the dogs that land in rescue with a history nobody wrote down. She knows what that work costs and what it's worth.

Makes a good team shirt, a good volunteer appreciation gift, and a good way to spot each other in public.

The shirt

Printed on a Bella + Canvas 3001 unisex jersey tee.

• Bella + Canvas 3001 unisex jersey tee, sizes XS through 3XL
• 100% combed and ring-spun cotton
• Fabric weight 4.2 oz./yd.² (142 g/m²)
• Pre-shrunk, side-seamed, shoulder-to-shoulder taping
• Printed on demand, black only

Size chart

Measurements are of the garment laid flat, in inches. Width is measured across the chest one inch below the armhole.

• XS: width 16.5, length 27
• S: width 18, length 28
• M: width 20, length 29
• L: width 22, length 30
• XL: width 24, length 31
• 2XL: width 26, length 32
• 3XL: width 28, length 33

Fit note: This tee runs slim. It's side-seamed with a tapered body, so it fits closer than a boxy unisex tee at the same listed measurement. If you want a relaxed fit, size up. Easiest check is to lay a shirt you already love flat, measure it, and match those numbers to the chart.

Care instructions

Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not bleach. Do not iron directly on the print. Do not dry clean.

Washing inside out in cold water is the single best thing you can do to keep the print sharp. Hot water and high heat are what fade a design over time.

Disclaimer: The fabric is slightly sheer and may appear see-through under certain lighting conditions.
