Stride and Prejudice Shirt, Bookish Running Tee, Jane Austen Gift for Runners, Audiobook Run Club, F
A Jane Austen–inspired running shirt for the bookish runner who measures distance in chapters, not miles.
Stride and Prejudice is the official uniform of the Audiobook Run Club, where the only rule is: run til the chapter's done. A vintage-style Regency lady in a sunhat (and suspiciously modern running shoes) sprints past a stack of classic novels in a distressed 70s retro print.
Perfect for:
• Runners who only lace up because the audiobook is getting good
• Book club members, Austen fans, and English majors who jog
• A funny gift for your reading buddy, running partner, or the friend who's "just one more chapter" about everything
Pairs perfectly with our Chafe Your Dreams running tee, for the complete run club look.
The Design: An original Deadpan & Paper design, I made the typical retro stripes you see on vintage tees into a pile of books. I changed the shoes on this vintage lady into sneakers, manipulated the colors, added distressing, and used a genuine vintage font from the early 1900s! Of course all the verbiage is of my own making, with a punny mashup of all things voracious readers and runners.
The Shirt: Comes in Heather Mustard, Heather Dust and Athletic Heather Colors. Those are 52% Cotton and 48% Polyester, so actually ideal for working out or running. The White tee shirt is 100% airlume spun cotton.
The crew neckline and retail fit keep the silhouette neat for layering under jackets or wearing solo. Subtle, durable printing on the chest holds its detail through washes, and the tear-away label keeps the shirt comfortable against skin. Wear it to club meetups, weekend routes, or cozy post-run coffee breaks and let it quietly announce your love of stories and movement.
