Inspired by a promise A. A. Milne made in his own foreword to The House at Pooh Corner — not spoken by any character, but by the author himself, to every reader about to finish the last book: "it isn't really Good-bye, because the Forest will always be there … and anybody who is Friendly with Bears can find it."

The design features an old wooden gate standing open onto the morning forest, a robin perched on the post and a pair of small boots left neatly beside it — while just past the first tree, a golden bear peeks out, waiting. Whoever left those boots went in, and never entirely came back out.

Milne knew his boy would grow up; this was his answer — the door doesn't close. A hundred years later the promise still holds for every reader who kept a soft spot for old bears and deep woods: the Forest is right where you left it, and you still know the way.

Washing Instructions

Follow these care tips, and your Mystic Eden shirts will keep their vibrant colors longer:

  1. Flip your t-shirts inside out before washing and drying. It might seem small, but it makes a big difference!
  2. Choose gentle detergents and opt for low temperatures.
  3. Don't overdo the spinning. Too much spinning can wear out your shirts faster.
  4. Air dry your t-shirts whenever you can. If you must use the dryer, avoid heavy items like winter coats and blankets.
  5. When ironing, flip your t-shirts inside out and start with a lower heat setting. Sometimes, designs and irons don't mix well.
