Once shipped, allow 3 to 5 business days for delivery.

Most orders arrive within 5 business days. In rare cases, or during heavy shopping periods, it can stretch to 10. Plenty of time to crack open something good.

Washing & Care Instructions

Follow these, and your Echos of Antiquity t-shirts will keep their vibrant colors longer!

  1. Wash and dry your t-shirts inside out. It's a simple yet crucial step.
  2. Opt for low temperatures and gentle detergents. Your shirt isn't a summer barbecue, so avoid high heat!
  3. Resist the temptation to spin excessively. Extra spins can lead to more wear and tear.
  4. Air dry your t-shirts whenever possible. If tumble drying, avoid heavyweight companions like winter coats and blankets.
  5. Iron your t-shirts inside out and start with a lower heat setting. Designs and irons aren't always the best of friends.

Customer photo review of Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

The printing is faint and hardly shows up on the blue shirt. I am wondering if this was a poor print lot

Customer photo review of Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Super comfy. But the blue type doesn't show up well on the blue shirt. Consider a different color scheme when you purchase!

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Store owner replied: Hi Barbara, Thanks so much for the feedback—really glad to hear the shirt is super comfy. We appreciate the note about the color contrast and will take that into account as we continue improving designs. We’ve already reached out to you directly so we can take care of this for you.

Comfortable shirt and arrived quickly. I really like the compliments I’ve gotten on the shirt and the quote.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Ordered three different shirts. Have only worn this one. Uber soft, light weight and a conversation starter. Do not regret this purchase. Amazing..

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

I love the saying on this shirt. It’s so TRUE ! If we don’t continuously stand up for what’s right, we will end up with evil people in government leadership, ruling our state or country for their own benefit. I am an 81-year-old woman with a PhD in Psychology so I don’t say this lightly ! Buy this shirt and become the bearer of important wisdom !

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Really love the print but thought the shirt would be a bit more lightweight. However, having a couple of older white guys give me the stink eye and a young person come up to compliment the shirt was worth it

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

This is the fifth T I have purchased. Do not hesitate to throw it in your cart. You will not regret it. Excellent quality, true to size, soft, drapes nicely.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

This is a very comfortable T-shirt with soft material, nice light blue color and a distinctive quote from Plato. I am pleased that I purchased from Echoes of Antiquity because I received personalized attention to my order. The price was reasonable. I will definitely order more shirts.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

The shirt is great; antiquity has all the info if we only would read it! The shirt arrived well packed and without any fuss. Thanks for a great product!

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

This may be my favourite quote in today’s world so I love wearing it and the T-shirt is great, too!

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Fits well, the image on the shirt is well done. Look forward to wearing it in the next "No Kings" rally.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

It’s a nice shirt and I picked the showcased advertised shirt. Lighter Blue with purple printing. The printing seems a bit blurry and it doesn’t show up well on the blue shirt. Do a lighter shirt with a dark printing if you’re ordering.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Store owner replied: Thanks so much for your feedback, Sharon—we really appreciate you taking the time to share it. We’re glad to hear you like the shirt overall, and we’re sorry the print clarity and contrast didn’t come through as expected on that colorway. Your note is genuinely helpful, and we’ll keep it in mind as we continue improving our designs and color pairings. We’ll be reaching out to you directly so we can take care of this for you.

As I have come to expect from Echos of Antiquity, my shirt arrived promptly, and in pristine condition. I am looking forward to wearing it to a study group I belong to. I know my friends will appreciate it as much as I do.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

I love the shirt, but I haven't worn it yet. I will let you know when I do and what kind of responses I get.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

The shirt fits perfectly. I wore it to a public event and got LOTS of favorable comment. I'm quite outspoken on politics, and Plato's statement here fits expresses my own viewpoint eloquently.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Excellent quality shirt, love it. Good fit, great graphics and a message from antiquity that is also relevant today.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

This was a gift for my husband. I received the shirt fast and we like the design. But the printing is very pale and hard to read. It's like they were running out of ink. The words and picture don't look bold like the picture at all. He'll wear it, but I'm disappointed.

Plato Quote Price of Apathy T-Shirt

Store owner replied: Hi Tina, Thanks for your feedback. I’m sorry the print didn’t come through as expected. We’ll take care of this for you and follow up with you via email shortly so we can sort out the best next step.

Great quality, soft material and printing is good. I would rather have a printed tag instead of the Gildan tag but that is ok.
