When Your Life Is in the Sewer - Vintage Twist T-Shirt
We make things that work better and last longer. Our products solve real problems with clean design and honest materials.
Printed Tee
Some days you float. Some days you’re just sitting outside wondering exactly where it all went wrong.
Our Pennywise – When Your Life Is in the Sewer tee gives the iconic horror clown a very different kind of nightmare: adulthood.
Designed in the style of a battered old photograph, the artwork features Pennywise taking five from the whole child-eating business, cigarette in one hand, bottle in the other, accompanied by the handwritten words:
“When your life is in the sewer.”
Finished with distressed edges, scratches, faded colours and the Etch & Ember Studio stamp, it has the feel of a photograph that’s spent several decades somewhere it probably shouldn’t have.
Part of our Vintage Twist Collection — familiar pop-culture imagery reworked with a worn, retro aesthetic and a healthy dose of questionable humour.
