rode my bike 18 mi round trip to Alshiref’s downtown #pdx shop to get the tee. he was there! and showed me how he prints his designs himself behind the counter. we fangirled hard together about the St. John’s bridge (honestly cathartic to check in with a kindred spirit on this topic). he said when people complain his print is upside down he looks down at it and exclaims NOT FOR ME! 😂 he said he’s Egyptian and so he flipped it to pick up on traditional Egyptian collar type shirt designs
