Seller's description

Say hello to your new go-to shirt for surviving those early mornings and double shifts.

Whether you’re a night shift worker running on fumes, a tired mom surviving on reheating the same cup of coffee, or just someone who feels a little undead before 9 AM, this premium garment-dyed tee gets it. Featuring a classic "Dead Tired But Caffeinated" graphic on the front left chest and a bold, vibrant illustration on the back—complete with a 1950s retro zombie diner waitress pouring a fresh, steaming pot of coffee—this double-sided shirt perfectly captures that exhausted, over-caffeinated energy.

Printed on the fan-favorite Comfort Colors 1717, this tee offers that coveted vintage, lived-in feel from the very first wear. The relaxed fit and striking color palette (pairing perfectly with bright blanks like White, Ivory, and Butter) make it the ultimate comfy uniform to throw on over leggings, under your scrubs, or with your favorite worn-in denim.

Why You’ll Love It:
- Humorous Vibe: A highly relatable, sarcastic design that speaks straight to the soul of every tired professional, parent, and caffeine addict.
- Vintage Aesthetic: The 1950s pinup-meets-retro-horror illustration style perfectly complements the garment-dyed fabric for an eye-catching, authentic throwback look.
- Premium Quality: No side seams and a heavyweight feel ensure this becomes a long-lasting staple in your daily survival rotation.

Product features
- 100% ring-spun US cotton for lasting comfort
- Garment-dyed finish for soft color and lived-in texture
- Heavyweight (6.1 oz/yd²) with relaxed fit
- Double-needle stitching and tubular knit (no side seams) for durability

Available S–4XL, pre-shrunk, and in 13 colors

Every coffee drinker needs this. I love it. The quality is amazing. They run true to size. After purchasing seven of their shirts and now added a sweatshirt from them to my collection... I'd like to say my expert rating status just went up 😂. Seriously though... these are great shirts.
