Enfants Riches Deprimes Black ‘Nursery To Misery’ T-Shirt

Enfants Riches Deprimes Black ‘Nursery To Misery’ T-Shirt

The ERD Nursery To Misery T-Shirt compresses an entire childhood into four panels and a punchline. Solid black cotton, cut in ERD’s boxy oversized fit, the chest carries a white line-art illustration laid out like a comic strip — “nursery to misery.” arcs across the top in a bold, slightly wobbling script, sitting above a grid of hand-drawn figures caught mid-motion: a child on a swing tangled with strange floating shapes, another spinning with a hoop, a figure mid-fall, each frame boxed off in thin white outline like panels torn from a warped picture book.

Beneath the illustrations, “erd.” signs off in the same loose, sketchbook lettering — lowercase, almost dismissive, like the artist couldn’t be bothered to capitalize the thing that just wrecked you. The linework stays intentionally rough throughout, more scribbled than rendered, giving the whole graphic the feel of a school notebook doodle that got a little too honest about what growing up actually felt like.

Made from 500gsm cotton in ERD’s oversized unisex fit, the shirt is produced in a strictly limited micro-batch, individually hand-finished so the fine white linework prints with slight variation piece to piece. It comes in S, M, L, and XL. Thin line-art holds up worse than bold graphics under a bad wash, so check garment care before this one meets water or heat.

Enfants Riches Déprimés — French for “Depressed Rich Kids” — was founded in 2012 by conceptual artist Henri Alexander Levy, colliding 1970s French avant-garde tailoring with raw punk nihilism. The label frequently returns to childhood as unfinished business — nurseries, playgrounds, report cards — reframing early innocence as the first casualty rather than something to be nostalgic about, hyper-exclusive objects built around discomfort dressed as whimsy.

Crafted across Los Angeles (USA), Italy, and Japan.

Started in a crib. Never really left it.
