PURRZUM T-Shirt

AS SEEN ON TV

A framed pencil drawing of a Norwegian hillside — spruce forest, a pale boulder on the path, and one tabby standing bolt upright in the heather, staring at it. PURRZUM above, BRUTAL KITTENS below, in tall blackletter. The quietest shirt in the catalog, and somehow the heaviest.

THE LORE

Purrzum is a one-cat band, and the cat is not taking visitors. Every record is made alone — no studio, no producer, and famously no proper microphone: offered a professional rig, the artist demanded the worst mic in the building and tracked the vocals through an old helicopter headset. Scholars of the genre call this decision "correct." The name means "darkness" in a language invented for a fantasy novel, which remains the most metal use of a library card on record. The covers are always borrowed from nineteenth-century Norwegian drawings: fog, spruce, and one pale boulder that may or may not be a troll. Our tabby stands upright in the heather because something moved behind that boulder. It will keep standing there until the forest explains itself.

Parody. Fan-made. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or remotely approved of by any actual band. NOT AVAILABLE IN ANY STORE.

THE FABRIC

We tested t-shirts for years. This one won.

We spent years testing t-shirts, washing them, wearing them into the ground, until we landed on this Comfort Colors blank. We print on this one on purpose. We wanted yours to feel like the band tee you grabbed at a merch stand five years ago: soft as hell, perfectly broken in, the one friends keep telling you looks great on you. The one you'd save in a fire.

Why it feels that way:

  • 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton. A mall tee runs 4.2 to 5 oz. You feel the difference the second you pick it up.
  • Dyed after it's sewn. The whole finished shirt goes into the pigment bath, so the color lands a little differently on every piece. Yours is one of one, and it fades into a vintage look the more you wear it.
  • Broken-in on arrival. Enzyme-washed at the dye house, so it skips the cardboard-new phase and only gets softer with each wash.
  • A collar that holds the line. Snug ribbed neckline that stays snug. No sad, saggy necklines.
  • Relaxed, slightly boxy cut. The way band tees fit before slim-fit took over.
  • Pre-shrunk for real. All those dye-house washes already did the shrinking. Wash cold and the fit you bought is the fit you keep.

Care for the cursed: cold wash, inside out, low dry. The slow fade is not damage, it's the point.

SIZE & FIT

SHIPPING & RETURNS

Every piece is made to order in darkness, typically 2-5 business days of production before it ships. Worldwide shipping, tracking lands in your inbox the moment it leaves the lair.

MATERIALS & CARE

Fabric specs for this exact garment live in THE FABRIC section above. Universal rules of the pit: wash cold, inside out. Hang to dry in the moonlight. Never iron the print. Do NOT let the cat sleep on it (you will lose).

Cat Throne and Purrzum Shirts

I received the Purrzum shirt for Christmas in a size Small. I'm petite and only 5' and usually wear a small or XS in most clothing brands, but when I received this, it was really tight. I could wear it, but it wasn't comfortable. Finally we got an exchange and I got a medium. It fits a lot better, but still isn't quite how these types of shirts usually fit on me. The neck also seemed a big high. I really like the company and designs, all I can say is that maybe it would be nice if they had a different style of shirt with a slightly more scoop neck and one that doesn't come up as high/tight on the neck, and maybe got some that are slightly looser to be more true to size. These are extremely fitted.
