40 Poorly Translated Shirts That Make A Strong Case For Spellcheck On Clothing

There’s something uniquely cursed about a t-shirt that combines bad translation with even worse design choices. And thanks to the brilliant madness documented by the @translatedtees Twitter account, we now have an entire fashion parade of shirts that make you say, “Who approved this?”

These funny shirts aren’t just suffering from a few lost-in-translation moments. They’re full-on design fails. Fonts that fight each other, graphics that make no sense, and phrases that feel like a sleep-deprived AI wrote them. It’s not just the language. It’s the layout, the color choices, the existential slogans. It’s all of it. And it’s beautiful.

Here are some gloriously unhinged t-shirt disasters that somehow made it out of Photoshop and onto someone’s torso.
