This tee embodies the legendary tale of Wu Song Fights the Tiger, a defining story from Water Margin. Wu Song, known for his strength and defiance, encounters a man-eating tiger on Jingyang Ridge. Ignoring warnings and relying on sheer force, he defeats the beast with his bare hands, freeing the villagers from years of terror and securing his place as a folk hero.
On the back, an intricate illustration brings this moment to life—Wu Song, poised in battle, his stance unwavering, his beads draped around his neck. These beads, often worn by monks and warriors, signify discipline, resilience, and spiritual strength—values deeply rooted in Chinese culture. His triumph is more than a feat of physical power; it reflects the enduring belief in courage against adversity. This design honors the legends that shape history, carrying their spirit forward.
