Factory Original, Professionally Rebuilt Heart Surgery Recovery Tee

Some engines just need a rebuild. Turns out hearts do too — this heart surgery recovery shirt says so with a mechanic’s sense of humor.

This one’s for anyone who’s been through open-heart surgery, a bypass, a valve replacement, or any repair job the cardiologist signed off on — printed like a shop warning label, because that’s basically what happened. Factory original. Professionally rebuilt. Running better than ever.

The front carries the label in full: bold vintage lettering, an anatomical heart, and an EKG line running straight through it. Flip it around and the back keeps it simple — a small heart, and three words that cover everything: Grateful every day.

Soft, heavyweight cotton, printed in-house in Santa Ana. Part of our Heart Recovery collection, built for hospital hallways, cardiac rehab, the first walk around the block, and every year after that gets marked as a good one.

Whether it’s for you, or for the person in your life who came out the other side of surgery still cracking jokes about it — this shirt says what a lot of recovery cards can’t.
