Great Dane Mom Shirts

Anyone who lives with a Great Dane knows the lean. A dog that stands taller than most kitchen counters will walk up, press its whole side against your legs and stay there, and owners talk about it as the breed's way of saying hello. The breed was developed in Germany, where it is still called the Deutsche Dogge, as a boar hunting dog, and over the centuries it became the calm, gentle giant people know today. The American Kennel Club recognized it in 1887, and Pennsylvania made it the official state dog in 1965.

This shelf is for the woman on the receiving end of that lean. None of our designs literally says "mom," so we picked the ones about closeness and the ones with style. The closeness first: "Right Beside You," with a Dane resting a paw on the words, the Art Deco "Space Beside Me," "Stay a Moment," "Stay Connected," "Still Together," "Still with You," the heartbeat line of "Dane Lean" and "No Way Back" for the day you fell for the breed. "Heavy Days Lift" is for the dog that makes a hard day lighter, and "Center Can Wander" for the center of her world. Then the elegant ones she can wear anywhere: "In Good Taste," "Dressed in Motion," "Steal the Show," "Long Muzzle Typeform" with its pink collar and the scenic-route map of "The Beautiful Detour."

Every design is printed on our Washed Tee: 100% cotton, 250 gsm, washed vintage finish, relaxed unisex fit, S to 5XL, three colors per design. 2 or more tees ship free in the US, and 3 or more get 15% off automatically.

FAQ

Do these shirts say Great Dane mom?

No. They are original Great Dane designs picked for the woman who loves her Dane: closeness, loyalty and elegant poster art. None of them is on our funny Great Dane page, so you can mix designs from both.

How does the Washed Tee fit a woman?

It is a relaxed straight unisex cut and true to size, from S to 5XL. Many women size down one for a closer fit or keep their usual size for a roomy, lived-in look. Check the chest width in our size guide. Tees are printed to order, so we cannot take returns for a wrong size.

Does the art match my Dane's coat?

The drawings show the Great Dane shape and stance in poster colors, a mix of black, white, fawn-like tones and artistic color, rather than a specific coat. Owners of fawn, brindle, harlequin, mantle, blue and black Danes all recognize their dog in the silhouette.
