Osteoarthritis Shirt – Retro Symptoms Sold Separately T-Shirt for Spoonies & the Chronically Ill

Osteoarthritis is a common form of arthritis that causes joint pain, stiffness, and swelling due to wear and tear of cartilage. This retro-style t-shirt keeps it real with the line “Symptoms Sold Separately,” because osteoarthritis symptoms can vary day to day and impact mobility in different ways.

Featuring bold vintage lettering and a warm sunset stripe, this design highlights the persistent discomfort and resilience required to manage osteoarthritis. This tee offers visibility, community, and a touch of humor — because dealing with this chronic condition deserves recognition and style.

I’ve personally tried this shirt, and it’s super soft — like “wait, am I even wearing a shirt?” soft. It’s unisex, so it runs large for women — and good news: it barely shrinks, if at all, even after a wash and dry. Lightweight, comfy, and breathable enough for flare days.
