200 YEARS LATER ❋ 1798 LYRICAL BALLADS TOUR ❋
In 1798, Wordsworth and Coleridge set out to do something entirely new: to bring poetry closer to everyday life. The result was Lyrical Ballads,a book that would go on to change English literature forever, and the inspiration behind our name and our ethos.
For this piece, we imagined what their tour merch might have looked like. Printed on 100% cotton, pre-washed, heavyweight fabric.
The Lyrical Ballads Tour 1798 T-shirt takes its cue from the graphic language of vintage concert tees, with the tour mark across the front and our dove on the sleeve, a small detail tying it back to the rest of the series.
Two poets. One collection. One very fictional tour.
The merch they never got, 200 years later.
In 1798, William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge published Lyrical Ballads, a collection that would go on to change the course of English literature and become the inspiration behind our name and our ethos.
There was no tour merch... obviously. So, 200 years later, we made one.
The black Lyrical Ballads sweater is our homage to Wordsworth and Coleridge, imagined as that tour merch they never got,.
A little piece of literary history, reimagined for today.
This is our homage to them: the tour merch they never got, 200 years later.
