- Boxy, oversized fit that works layered or on its own

Design & Story
Some things are steady, even as everything else changes.
It’s in the way you keep showing up, even on the hard days.
The way you hold more than anyone sees.
A kind of love that’s given freely, and felt in everything.
Designed to pair with the kids Forever tee, a quiet connection between the two.
Inspired by vintage tattoo art, where meaning is chosen and carried for life, this piece holds that same sense of permanence. Not loud, not fleeting. Just something that stays.
Created for Mother’s Day, but not defined by it.
A small reminder of a love that grows with you, something you carry, always and forever.
