🕷️ “CREEP CATALOGUE” LONG SLEEVE

4-Species Tarantula Study / Archive White

A long sleeve tee that feels ripped straight out of a mad entomologist's personal stash — a clinical, almost scientific print showcasing four distinct tarantula species, frozen mid-crawl in inked still life.

Each spider is detailed with creepy precision — from fuzzy legs to layered chelicerae. Positioned like a vintage field study illustration, but with just enough chaos and asymmetry to feel wrong.

The base: an off-white washed cotton with subtle sun-damaged yellowing, like it was unearthed from an old specimen crate or basement lab.
Slimy, sterile, and strangely stylish — arachno-anatomy as fashion print.

Story:
This piece is said to reference the illegal spider trade zines circulated throughout parts of East Asia in the 2000s — underground guides for exotic collectors, banned in several countries due to the threat of ecological damage.

This shirt mimics those zines’ layout: no names, no context, just a quiet threat in each image. A tribute to the strange beauty of fear — the kind of tee you wear when you want people to ask "Why spiders?" and you respond "Why not?"
