Highlights

If you know… you know.
This tee is a cheeky, dark-humour twist on the iconic 1970s British public information films that traumatised a generation in the name of safety. Only this time, Charley isn’t warning you about electricity pylons or strangers…
He’s got something a little ruder to say.
Perfect for lovers of retro British nostalgia, cult TV references, and humour that’s just the right amount of inappropriate. This design blends wholesome 70s cartoon vibes with a very un-wholesome punchline – ideal for those who enjoy confusing older relatives and delighting your most chaotic friends.
Why you’ll love it:
• Retro-inspired cartoon artwork
• Bold circular design with vintage colour palette
• Soft, comfortable everyday tee (Printful non-organic base)
• Unisex fit – easy to style oversized or fitted
• Guaranteed to spark double-takes
Great for:
– Fans of 70s British TV nostalgia
– Lovers of dark humour
– Pub nights
– Alternative fashion
– Gifting to that one mate who definitely shouldn’t be allowed nice things

Because sometimes… Charley says what we’re all thinking.

Charlie says orange colour t-shirt for Brother's birthday. He loved it as a kid of the 70's. Had a good laugh. Highly recommend this gem of a shop 🙂
