If loving Pirates and Squirrels is wrong, I don’t want to be right. Philip Tseng has combined the [sea styles of Pirates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seafarer-cotton-sweaters) and the cuteness of Squirrels in the “Arr, Let O’ Me Nuts” shirt being sold at Threadless Tees.

The [Threadless Tees design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/panda-dunk-tshirts) by Philip Tseng is pretty hilarious. You’ll look as badass as the models featured with your [Squirrel Pirate tee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-monsters), though the addition of the eye-patch does add to the greatness. Take a look at Philip Tseng’s design (aka my new favorite shirt).
