Rose City Oversized Tee

The path was straight... but we stay swaying.

The Rose City Oversized Tee is a soft black cotton statement piece for anyone who's ever colored outside the lines — on purpose. Inspired by Erinem’s lyric from “Syncopated and Hated” ("the path was straight but I swayed and stay syncopated"), this design celebrates intentional deviation — the art of going left when life tells you to go right.

Front graphic: a dagger pierces through a blooming rose ouroboros — the cycle of creation, destruction, and rebirth, set over a bed of Tyler, Texas roses (if you know, you know).
Back graphic: five glitch-shifted iterations of the word SYNCOPATED stacked like defiant echoes. Just in case anyone missed the point.

It’s soft. It’s oversized. It’s human-made, like your resistance.

🌹 Built for the ones who refuse to walk a straight line — even when it’s paved for them.
