CF Nak / Overhaul: Murph We Honor

Every year, Memorial Day asks something of us. This gym answered with a shirt that says exactly what needs to be said.

Overview

Printed in black and charcoal on a heather grey triblend tee, the front carries a bold stencil portrait of Lt. Murphy alongside large block lettering for "MURPH" and supporting gym badge art. The design pulls from military stencil tradition mixed with a modern street aesthetic. The back is clean and deliberate: "WE HONOR" in a wide spaced runic style font with Lt. Michael Murphy's dates beneath it. Heather grey was the right call here. It keeps the whole thing understated and lets the message carry the weight.

Results

This is a gym shirt that earns a spot in the drawer for years. The front gives you something to look at, and the back says something worth reading. It works during the workout and just as well outside of it. That combination is hard to get right and this one does.
