A humorous fencing tee displaying six activities—practice, watch videos, research, talk, think, and dream about fencing—perfect for obsessed fencers.
The story behind this design
On a white shirt, the title 'Things I Do in My Spare Time' sits in bold black letters at the top. Below, a six-panel grid illustrated in simple black line art shows: two fencers lunging (labeled 'Practice Fencing'), a screen with fencers (labeled 'Watch Fencing Videos'), a laptop screen (labeled 'Research Fencing'), two fencers conversing (labeled 'Talk About Fencing'), a thought bubble with fencers (labeled 'Think About Fencing'), and finally a figure in bed dreaming of fencers (labeled 'Dream About Fencing'). A small badge reading 'Sleep Fencing' sits in the upper left. The humor is self-aware and relatable—it's the gentle mockery of obsession that only true enthusiasts can fully appreciate. The line-drawn, almost comic-strip style keeps it light.
Who it's for
Serious fencers—whether competitive, recreational, or retired—will instantly recognize and laugh at this design. Coaches who live and breathe the sport. Gift-givers shopping for someone whose fencing passion borders on all-consuming (in the best way). It works as a locker room conversation starter or a team gift, celebrating the singular focus that drives the fencing community.
