It's an Oboe Thing You Wouldn't Understand
One design for this subject, on a Unisex Standard T-Shirt. If more appear in the same line they will show up here.
Which one to pick
Hobby designs tend to carry the vocabulary of the craft, which is exactly what makes them land with people inside it and mean nothing to everyone else. The one design here keeps the wording plain.
If it will be worn while actually doing the oboe, pick a darker colour — these shirts meet dust, water or dye sooner than most.
Who it is for
For someone whose oboe takes up real weekends rather than an occasional afternoon. The joke claims membership, so it only reads properly on someone who has earned the claim.
They make their own reeds
Oboists carve and adjust their own double reeds, which is a craft in itself and the reason no oboist travels light.
The orchestra tunes to the oboe, which oboists mention with entirely justified satisfaction.
It is a difficult instrument by any measure, and almost nobody makes merchandise for it.
Sizing and ordering
- Unisex tees run true to size — size up one for a relaxed fit.
- Allow two to three weeks. Each shirt is printed after you order, so production time comes before shipping time.
- Checkout happens on the print partner's site — Senprints handles printing, payment and delivery.
If it is not quite the right craft
The wording only works when it names the exact craft, so it is worth checking before you buy. Quilting, Saxophone and Sewing each have their own page with their own designs, and there are more below.
