Tattooed and employed tee featuring a bold skull emblem for tattoo artists and inked professionals who break stereotypes daily.
The story behind this design
A striking circular seal dominates the chest, with 'Tattooed' arcing across the top and 'Employed' across the bottom in uppercase, bold letters. At the center is a skull rendered in clean, bold line work, flanked by crossbones beneath. Two smaller decorative tattoo-style flourishes (scrollwork or ornamental elements) sit on either side of the circle, giving the design a traditional tattoo badge or official seal aesthetic. The entire design is rendered in a stark silver-gray on black, creating high contrast and a professional, authoritative feel. There's an undertone of reclaiming the narrative—turning stereotypes on their head with dry humor and confidence.
Who it's for
Perfect for tattooed professionals, inked office workers, and anyone who's tired of outdated assumptions about what tattooed people do for a living. Ideal as a gift for a coworker who's proud of their ink, or a personal confidence boost when navigating traditional workplaces. Also appeals to tattoo artists who maintain professional studios and want to celebrate that identity without apology.
