Define yourself with this dictionary-approved Unisex Jersey T-Shirt featuring the "Bowhemian Definition" design. Soft, lightweight combed ring-spun cotton keeps you comfortable in practice rooms, lessons, rehearsals, campfire circles, or a casual day out. This shirt isn't just a clothing item; it's a dictionary entry written just for you. Bowhemian (noun): a string player who lives outside the lines and inside the music. See also: shows up to the jam with three tunes and leaves with thirty, considers a broken hair on the bow a fashion statement, and has never once played a piece the same way twice. It is not a phase. It is a lifestyle, and now it is spelled out in black and white so nobody has to ask. Great for gifting during holidays, birthdays, recitals, or the start of festival season, this tee resonates with fiddlers, violinists, folk and bluegrass players, and anyone who appreciates both dictionary-style humor and comfort in their everyday wear.

The definition layout looks so clean. Fabric is light and comfortable, and it has washed well several times without fading.
