Hummingbird and columbine print · 100% ring-spun cotton · seven garment-dyed colors · Comfort Colors 1717 · printed graphic, nothing stitched on

Garment-Dyed Tee · Seven Colors · Backyard Birds

Right on Time

The flower waits. The bird arrives.

Close-up of the detailed front chest print on a Chili Comfort Colors 1717 tee — a ruby-throated hummingbird at wild red columbine, no text in the design.

Shown in Chili. Garment-dyed 6.1 oz cotton, soft from the first wear.

A ruby-throated hummingbird hanging at a stem of wild red columbine, wings a blur, tail fanned, the nodding flowers tipped just so for a bird that drinks from below. Emerald back, white chest, the throat catching a flash of red.

Red columbine blooms in the exact weeks the hummingbirds return north, and that is not a coincidence; the plant is built for them, red and nectar-rich with spurs too deep for most bees. The bird earns it. Many cross the Gulf of Mexico in a single nonstop flight of about 500 miles, on a body that weighs less than a nickel. The throat is only red when the light hits it straight on. Turn away and it reads black.

Front view of a Chambray pale blue 6.1 oz garment-dyed Comfort Colors 1717 tee, worn — a detailed hummingbird at red columbine, printed across the chest.

Shown in Chambray. A washed light blue, the easiest of the seven to wear.

The Design

Large front-centered chest print — not a back print

Subject: a male ruby-throated hummingbird feeding at a stem of wild red columbine

Style: field-guide watercolor — the blurred wingbeat, the fanned tail and the nodding spurred flowers drawn separately

No text. There is no lettering, slogan, quote or wordmark anywhere in this design

Technique: a printed graphic — the ink sits in the face of the cotton with no background panel, and nothing is stitched or sewn on

Details

Large front print, centered on the chest — not a back print

Relaxed unisex fit, roomy through the chest, straight through the body

Crew neck, short sleeves, no pocket

Ribbed collar; twill-taped shoulder-to-shoulder; double-needle sleeves and hem

Tubular body with no side seams, so it keeps its shape

Seven colors — Butter, Chambray, Island Reef, Bay, Mustard, Chili and Black — sizes S to 4XL

Ready-made design — choose a color and size, nothing to upload or customize

Designed in Colorado · Made to order in the USA, printed and shipped in two to five business days · free US shipping, no minimum

Fabric

Printed on a Comfort Colors 1717 garment-dyed t-shirt blank

100% ring-spun US cotton, 6.1 oz — heavier and softer than a standard tee, with a little structure to it

Soft-washed after dyeing, so it arrives already broken in

Dyed after the garment is sewn, using salt-free pigment dyes; OEKO-TEX certified

Holds its shape through the wash, with almost no shrinkage at home

The graphic will not crack or peel. It is printed flat into the face of the cotton — no heavy vinyl patch, no rubbery texture, nothing to pull loose

Choosing a Color

An emerald back, a white chest and a red throat over red flowers. Seven grounds, light to dark — and this is a design that genuinely gains on the dark ones.

Butter. Pale yellow, like morning light. The columbine reads clearly and the emerald stays green.

Chambray. Washed light blue, the easiest of the seven to wear with denim, and the one in the photo above.

Island Reef. Soft mint. The foliage settles into the ground and the red flowers step forward.

Bay. Soft sage — the garden color. Green on green, with the red doing all the talking.

Mustard. Deep gold, the warmest of the seven, and the one that pushes the emerald back toward blue.

Chili. Brick red. The flowers sit down into the ground and the emerald back pops hardest of all — the color in the close-up at the top.

Black. Maximum contrast, and the classic way to show this bird: the throat catches the light against the dark exactly as it does in life.

Garment-dyed colors look softer and more muted in person than on a screen, and each piece varies slightly. That lived-in tone is part of the charm.

Sizing

Fit at a glance: relaxed fit, roomy through the chest · length hits at the hip · short sleeve · 6.1 oz heavyweight cotton · runs true to size

A relaxed unisex cut that most people wear true to size. True to size with a relaxed unisex fit. For a closer fit, size down one; for an oversized look, size up one.

Adult sizes only, S to 4XL. Between sizes? We'll make it right, free.

Care
