Tau Ceti Fox Pocket Logo V2 Design Details

This design is meticulously machine-embroidered on a premium Navy garment for a high-contrast, professional finish. The left-chest logo measures 8cm x 8cm and features a curled-up red fox inspired by the viral 1950s cardigan pattern. Beneath the fox, crisp typewriter-style text reads ‘TAU CETI MISSION / R. GRACE’. We use high-quality Faded Crimson (#D9534F) and Stark White (#F9F9F9) threads to create a durable, tactile design that won’t fade or peel like screen prints. The juxtaposition of the folksy fox with sterile, scientific text creates a unique visual tension perfect for any sci-fi enthusiast.
