“Memento Mori” – Vaelus Edition

$35.00
Memento Mori—“Remember you must die.” A timeless reminder from the ancients that life is fleeting, and what we do here matters. This design, brought to life through the vision of Lucien Valen, fuses street-style grit with philosophical weight, making it both modern and eternal.

At Vaelus, Memento Mori is more than a phrase—it’s a call to action. Every acre restored, every gallon of water replenished, every family ranch saved is done with the awareness that time is short, but legacy endures. We wear this design not as a symbol of fear, but as a vow: to restore, to defend, and to leave behind a Texas stronger than we found it.

Bold, haunting, and honest—this piece speaks to the truth that drives all our work. In remembering mortality, we choose to build immortality through restoration.

“Every $35 shirt sold restores approximately 5,000 gallons of water to Texas aquifers each year. Together, we’re turning apparel into restoration.”
