I Survived A Broken Rib tee with rough, hand-drawn lettering—a wry, honest design for people who've healed from injury.
The story behind this design
Raw, hand-scratched lettering dominates this design: 'I Survived A Broken Rib' spreads across the chest in white, distressed strokes that look carved or graffitied onto the black fabric. The typography is intentionally rough and weathered, with scratchy texture that mirrors the physical toughness of recovering from a serious rib fracture. There's no sugar-coating, no flowery symbolism—just straightforward, slightly tongue-in-cheek honesty. The design captures both the ordeal and the survivor's wry sense of humor about it. It's the visual equivalent of a knowing nod to anyone who's endured that particular misery.
Who it's for
People recovering from or healed from a broken rib, athletes sidelined by rib injuries, and anyone who appreciates dry, honest survival humor. Perfect for wearing during recovery as a morale booster, or years later as a battle-scar badge. A funny, thoughtful gift for a friend or family member heading into or healing from rib surgery, or for someone with a sharp sense of humor about their own healing journey.
