Where's the lahma?™ Ishihara Test T-shirt
Sale Price: $27.99 Original Price: $29.99

The Ishihara Test design is a play on “Where’s the lahma?” while tying the phrase to one of the biggest challenges in The Egyptian Cook’s everyday life: his vision. The Egyptian Cook is legally blind due to Stargardt disease and, as a teenager, underwent countless Ishihara Tests during the difficult process of his diagnosis. Since seeing was already challenging, he found it frustrating to search for hidden numbers within the colored dots. For this design, he recreated the concept himself, replacing the traditional number with the word “lahma.” It turns a difficult and personal experience into something humorous and uniquely connected to his identity and the phrase that helped shape his brand.
