Sharp gothic script on top, a burning heart underneath.

Dripping old-English lettering and a heart drawn in light give Blackletter Glow Heart its dark-romantic look, and it's a gothic shirt men can pair with black jeans and boots or wear under an open jacket. Light, comfy cotton makes it easy to wear from afternoon to after midnight, and it's a thoughtful pick for anyone whose style runs dark and romantic.

Gothic shirt men's art: a dripping word above a sparkling heart

Across the top sits a single word in white blackletter, the angular, broken-stroke script of old manuscripts and tattoo flash. Thin paint drips run down from the bottom of the letters, so the word looks freshly painted on a wall late at night.

Below it, a heart outline seems to burn like a lit sparkler: a bright red-pink line wrapped in a soft haze of light, with flecks of red splatter scattered around it and one long drip falling from its point.

The pairing of hard gothic lettering and a heart that seems lit from within gives the print its mood: dark but tender, a little dramatic and completely sincere. It suits anyone who keeps their romance on the shadowy side.

Light cotton that stays comfy from morning to late night

• Light 4.5 oz/yd² (153 g/m²) knit that keeps you comfortable through a long day out or a crowded room
• Soft 100% cotton in the solid shades; the heather shades are a 65% polyester, 35% cotton blend
• Double stitching at the neckline and sleeves adds durability where a tee gets tugged the most
• A reinforcing strip sewn across the back of the shoulders strengthens the seam behind your neck
• The fabric is turned during making, so there's no crease running down the middle of your shirt
• Tear-away label: it pulls right off, so nothing itchy sits against your neck

Who it's for

Men who dress in black most of the week, fans of gothic art and old-English tattoo lettering, romantics with a dark streak, and anyone who decorates with candles and wrought iron. If you've been hunting for a goth graphic tee that's more heartfelt than grim, this gothic t-shirt fits a club night, a date, a vintage market or a lazy Sunday. It also makes a good gift for Valentine's Day, Halloween, a birthday or an anniversary.

Quick answers

Does the heart actually glow in the dark?

No. The glow is part of the drawing: the heart is printed in regular ink to look lit from within, so it looks the same in daylight, under string lights or at a dim bar.

Which size should I pick?

This men's tee has a regular fit and standard length. Check a favorite tee's measurements against the size guide next to the size options, which lists length, width, sleeve length and body chest for every size.

Where on the shirt does the print sit?

Center chest, with the word above the heart at a medium size that's easy to read across a room. The back of the shirt stays blank.

Will the drips and splatter look the same on every shade?

The art shifts a little with the shirt. On the darkest shades the heart reads as a sparkly glowing line, while on some lighter ones it can look bolder and more graphic, with darker flecks around it.
