A little stack of books. The text: I read banned books. Books open worlds. They introduce you to people you’d never meet, experiences you’d never have, perspectives that stretch how you think and feel. They make you smarter, more empathetic, more capable of understanding people who are nothing like you. The idea of banning books- denying people access to knowledge, to other people’s stories, to content that might help someone feel less alone- is something to push back against. Hard. This design does it quietly and clearly. For the reader who believes that access to books- all books- matters. Who sees book banning as a restriction on thought, empathy, and freedom. Who reads banned books deliberately, as an act of conviction, and is not shy about it. – 65% ring-spun cotton, 35% polyester – Charcoal Heather is 60% ring-spun cotton, 40% polyester – Carbon Grey is 55% ring-spun cotton, 45% polyester – 100% cotton face – Fabric weight: 8.5 oz./yd.² (288.2 g/m²) – Front pouch pocket – Self-fabric patch on the back – Matching flat drawstrings – 3-panel hood – Tear-away tag Fortis Fidei — Latin for Strong Faith — is a values-based apparel and lifestyle brand for people who think deeply, believe boldly, and live without apology.
