19.23 Tees by Ami Kealoha

19.23 fulfills the requirements of the holy t-shirt trinity. Colorways are muted and complementary, like one of the "paratrooper" designs (left), which features a rust-colored release print on a khaki tee. Most include a few lines of whimsical text in place of an interior tag, such as the Emma Rossi haiku in both English and French on the peacock (right) that reads, "Earth mostly water/Blazing with witness vapors/Primordial light." There's a lot more neo-romanticism where that came from, like a design that re-creates the classic broken-heart best friend necklace on two tees. Buy your own from 19.23, starting at $34.
