One of the items from the line is a simple white tee that’s been stamped with bold red lettering. The color palette of this piece helps the wearer dress up or down the look, offering something that can be worn while running errands, or paired with a leather jacket for a night out. The front of the shirts read ‘[Nike SB](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-sb-2)’ on the left breast While the reverse reads ‘Girls Don’t Cry.’ The artistic and bold lettering on the back of the shirt helps it to stand out from the crowd, making it a go-to [statement piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/humanrace-4) that can seamlessly elevate any look.
