The semicolon did nothing wrong. It sat quietly between two related thoughts for two hundred years, then a longer, flashier mark turned up and took the work.

Cut for a women's fit, not the shop's boxy heavyweight: soft combed ringspun cotton, a relaxed body, side seams and a little extra length.

This is the campaign shirt for the reinstatement. Wear it for every semicolon retired early by a writer who reached for a dash instead.

The type was set by a person who still uses one occasionally, on purpose.

Measurements are the supplier's own, and may vary by up to 2cm.

THE GARMENT

• Bella and Canvas 6400, relaxed women's cut
• Combed and ring-spun cotton, 4.2 oz (142 gsm), light and soft rather than stiff
• Heather colours are a cotton and polyester blend, which is what gives them the flecked look
• Relaxed through the body with a slightly longer length

Colours: Black, Navy, Pink, White, Dark Grey Heather and Heather Mauve.

Printed to order, never held in stock, so nothing is made that nobody wants.
