Product Insights
The Will You Be My Rat T-Shirt by DOMREBEL is an original studio art piece disguised as a tee: a hand-finished, front-and-back screenprint from a Montreal art collective, printed on custom ringspun 100% cotton jersey knit and assembled in Canada. Its core promise is art-first, not apparel-first — the distressed, speckled ink and slight per-shirt variation are designed, not defects, and the 225 CAD entry-level price (roughly four times a standard graphic tee) buys that original hand-drawn studio work, not upgraded specs. Domrebel, founded by two Montreal students in 2003 and still independent, trades on rebel lineage, while the relaxed, true-to-size fit sits between S and XL (with XXL available at Japanese stockists) and the cut is roomier than a regular-fit competitor. The main tradeoff is care and commitment: machine heat cracks the print, hanging stretches the collar, and the tee demands cold inside-out washing, air-drying, and folding — all for a deliberately imperfect, handcrafted look that varies piece to piece.
Verified claims
- Sizing
- True-to-size relaxed tee; full chest spans 112–128 cm from S to XL.
- Size range
- Listing stocks S–XL only; the same tee reaches XXL at Japanese stockists.
- Fit comparison
- Cut is relaxed, while the Psycho Bunny Caspian tee is regular fit with standard length.
- Fabric
- Custom ringspun 100% cotton jersey made exclusively in Canada for DOMREBEL.
- Print longevity
- Wash inside-out cold and fold; machine heat cracks the print.
- Artistic provenance
- Original studio screenprint from Montreal art collective, not a licensed design.
- Print method
- Traditional screen printing on cotton — not sublimation — leaves the ink firm and textured when new.
- Care
- Wash inside out in cold water and air-dry; heat cracks the print and shrinks the cotton.
- Storage
- Store by folding rather than hanging, so gravity doesn't stretch the collar or press hanger creases into the ink.
- Print finish
- The distressed, speckled look is designed from day one and hand-finished details vary shirt to shirt.
- Made in Canada
- Knit and assembly are Canadian, per independent retail listing; cotton and dyeing origins aren't covered
- Handcrafted finish
- Handcrafted pieces show slight unit-to-unit variations by design, not by defect
- Price positioning
- At $165 USD it costs about $120 more than the $40–45 Tetramode performance tees
- Independent origins
- Two Montreal students founded DOMREBEL in 2003 with $350 and no fashion background; it remains founder-owned.
- Name origin
- DOMREBEL comes from Latin words Dominus Rebellis, meaning Master of Rebellion.
- Entry-level pricing
- 225 CAD is entry-level for DOMREBEL; the premium over $40-45 tees buys original studio art, not upgraded specs.
- Worn finish
- Worn, speckled screenprint is a deliberate studio finish; each tee varies slightly.
- Value
- At $165 USD (225 CAD at Simons), roughly four times a $40–45 graphic tee.
- Per-piece variation
- Every tee is hand-finished, so print placement and distressing vary slightly from piece to piece.
- Original studio art
- Front and back graphics are direct screenprints of original hand-drawn DOMREBEL studio artworks.
- Graphic lineage
- The mouse design is part of a DOMREBEL pattern of cartoon makeovers, including a Looney Tunes character as a skeleton.
- Artwork finish
- The faded, speckled ink and slight per-shirt variation are DOMREBEL's intentional hand-finished style.
- Print design
- Original screenprints cover front and back; the Caspian carries one tactile raised bunny logo.
- Options
- All four variants are the same Off White colorway; choosing one is purely a size decision.
