Winston Salem State circle tee with bold ram mascot graphic and circular text layout—institutional pride worn with contemporary style.
The story behind this design
A black tee featuring a striking centered circle design with a ram's head portrait in bold red and white at its core. The ram is rendered in a strong, simplified graphic style with defined horns and direct gaze. Text wraps around the circular perimeter in white capital letters, reading 'The Yard Essentials' at the top and 'Winston Salem State' curving along the sides and bottom, creating a badge-like emblem effect. The design feels institutional and commanding—evoking school spirit and campus identity while maintaining clean, modern graphic sensibilities. The tight color control (red, white, black) gives it polish and wearability.
Who it's for
Designed for current students, alumni, and community members connected to Winston Salem State. Ideal as a homecoming gift, graduation present, or way to show institutional affiliation year-round. Appeals to anyone who values their educational heritage and wants to wear it with pride and contemporary design sensibility. Works for campus life, casual outings, or as part of a personal wardrobe that reflects identity and belonging.
