Xenotees

Xenotees has hit pageboy with popular fervor. With their “french pet lobster” and “giant fork” tee shirts flying off the racks, they have proven to be a Pittsburgh favorite.

Check out the inspiration and translation for the french pet lobster…
“J’ai le goût des homards, qui sont tranquilles, sérieux, savent les secrets de la mer, n’aboient pas…”

“I have a liking for lobsters. They are peaceful, serious creatures. They know the secrets of the sea, they don’t bark…”

Supposedly the French poet, Gérard de Nerval, would walk his pet lobster with a ribbon. This was his reasoning for adopting a lobster as opposed to a dog!
