"be grateful"

Depending on if you are a “glass half full” person or a “glass half empty” type of person, I wanted to remind people to be grateful for what you do have in life. Regardless of any shortcomings in life, there’s always something to be grateful for. (Kyle Abraham, Artistic Director of A.I.M)

Because each Lingua Franca sweater is customized to order, making it truly one of a kind, all sales are final and we are unable to accept returns/exchanges. Lingua Franca embroiderers use their best discretion when stitching to ensure each product meets our high standards and unique, well-known style, but this may also result in unique variations in the look, size, and placement of the embroidery.
