The Icon Speak T-shirt is not just comfortable clothing with beautiful symbols, it is actually an amazing invention, a must-have for all travel lovers. On the T-shirt there is a table with small drawings that will help anyone who does not know the language of the country in which he finds himself to clearly explain what he needs.
The idea for such a universal symbol table came to three friends from Switzerland during one of the feasts after a little adventure with a broken motorcycle somewhere in the middle of Vietnam.
George, Stephen and Florian said that during their travels they very often had to deal with a language barrier that could be overcome only by drawing a symbol or drawing on the first piece of paper or just on the ground. They thought it would be great to have a certain set of signs always at hand, one of which you can simply point to and thus make it clear to people who do not know English that you, for example, have something wrong with the carburetor. Soon, the guys began to memorize and write down the most necessary notations that would be useful not only to them, but also to any person during their travels.
