Rabel Betshmuel — Fri, 29 May 2026 19:02:39 +0000

Built for match day, everyday wear, and everything in between, this Lions of Bet-Nahrain t-shirt brings Iraqi football pride and Assyrian-inspired design into one bold piece. With a modern classic fit and moisture-management fabric, it’s made to keep you comfortable whether you’re watching the game, hitting the gym, or styling it as part of your everyday rotation. No fuss, no awkward fit—just a clean, wearable shirt with heritage, energy, and pride built in.

About the Art: Lions of Mesopotamia is a new body of work that brings together ancient Assyrian visual language with the living energy of Iraqi football culture. Rooted in lion imagery inspired by Mesopotamian art, the series reimagines strength, guardianship, pride, and territorial presence through a contemporary graphic lens. For me, this work marks a personal shift. While my practice has long been grounded in Assyrian heritage, this is the first time I am consciously allowing my birthplace, Baghdad, and a broader Iraqi identity to enter the work with clarity.

Please keep in mind that the art of embroidery can result in subtle variations, and perfection in every stitch may not always be achievable. Each piece is crafted with care and attention, but the nature of embroidery lends itself to unique and charming imperfections that add character and uniqueness to your item.

Washing Instructions:

Embroidered apparel can be machine-washed cold, inside-out on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and like colors. You can use a small amount of chlorine bleach, but non-chlorine is the safer option.
If you notice any color residue in water, rinse the garment in lukewarm water and then in cold several times, but try not to rub any stained embroidery. Embroidered clothing can also be dry-cleaned.
After washing, don’t leave the clothing to soak or lie in a pile while wet. Don’t wring out the embroidered items, but if you want to tumble-dry them, use a cool air setting.
If the garment needs ironing, do it inside-out, preferably between two pieces of cloth. You shouldn’t wet embroidery before ironing or use a steam iron.
