About the Festina Lente design

"Festina Lente" (Make Haste Slowly) — an ancient Latin adage embracing the wisdom of balancing speed with patience, diligence with deliberation. This vintage-inspired illustration features a dapper Victorian gentleman hare standing proudly atop a giant garden snail shell, resting on his walking stick while displaying the Latin motto on a ribbon banner. Designed in a timeless copperplate woodcut and cross-hatch etching style. A thoughtful piece for lovers of Stoic philosophy, dark academia, classic literature, history enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates charming, antique animal oddities. That idea carries through to the hoodie version.

The design also works well if you are drawn to snail themes.

What you are getting

It uses a soft cotton-blend fleece that keeps its shape after washing. The print is applied after you order, so every hoodie is made for its buyer. Unisex sizing makes it easy to order for yourself or as a gift.

Christmas gifting notes

Redbubble publishes holiday shipping cut-off dates each season; ordering early in December avoids the rush. Redbubble handles printing, shipping, and returns, so you can order the hoodie straight to the recipient's address.
