Glückspils Men's T-Shirt with Mushrooms and Wheat Beer

Mushroom spotting with a head of foam

On the left a fat cep with two small offshoots at the base, in the middle a fly agaric with a red cap and white spots, on the right a tall wheat beer glass with foam spilling over. A narrow handwritten name sits under each picture, and on the third one the mushroom turns into a Glückspils. The drawings are in full colour and the captions in dark brown, so the motif stays readable on pale natural and on white.

What Glückspils means

Glückspilz is the German word for a lucky devil, literally a lucky mushroom. Swap the final letters for Pils and you have the joke the shirt is built on: in the woods, given the choice, this wearer reaches for the glass.

Who it suits

Mushroom hunters with a sense of humour, a walk that ends in a beer garden, and the friend who sets off every autumn with a basket and comes back thirsty. With fungi and wheat beer across the chest, the evening's conversation is already settled.
