Why black T-shirts?
Meander Placid started with a simple thought: I’ve always worn black.
Black feels effortless — it works on its own, or paired with anything else.
But finding the right graphic T-shirt wasn’t easy. Most were too loud, too basic, or simply didn’t feel right.
So I decided to create what I couldn’t find: black tees I actually want to wear — quiet, comfortable, and designed with intention.
Comfort is everything. Each piece is made with soft, breathable cotton, so even with prints, the fabric never feels heavy or stiff.
These are shirts I live in — and maybe, somewhere out there, someone else has been looking for the same thing.
Why Chinese characters?
Some of our titles use Chinese, but they aren’t direct translations of the English names.
They’re chosen as poetic expressions, shaped by the images and the mood they carry.
At the moment, only one design — the Meander Placid tee — uses Chinese characters on the shirt itself.
It’s also a poetic interpretation rather than a literal meaning.
Even if you don’t read Chinese, it doesn’t matter — I often see calligraphic characters as artworks in themselves.
If you’re curious about the meaning of a particular word or character, hit me with an email — I’d love to share its story.
