The verse
HEART WIDE OPEN
“A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart.”
Luke 6:45
What’s stored up comes out eventually. Under pressure, it always does.
The good doesn’t appear in the moment - it’s drawn from what you’ve been quietly keeping all along.
Heart wide open. Not soft. Just unguarded on purpose.

Before you order
Made to order asks a little patience. Here is what that means, in plain words.
Everything else lives on the FAQ page.
Why does it take 2 to 3 days before it ships?
We print nothing until you ask for it. Those 2 to 3 working days are the print, and they are the reason there is no crate of last season's belief waiting to be discounted.
Full answer on the FAQ pageIt doesn't fit. What happens now?
Consumers in the EU, the EEA and the United Kingdom have 14 days from receiving the order to withdraw, then order the right size. There is no exchange, because there is no shelf to swap from, so Find My Size on this page runs the arithmetic against the real measurement chart before you buy.
Returns and right of withdrawalWill the print crack or fade in the wash?
Wash it cold or at 30°C, inside out, and hang it dry. No tumble dryer, and never iron on the print. The dryer kills a print faster than the wash does, so skip it and the print outlives the season that made you want it.
Full answer on the FAQ pageWhen is it at my door?
Europe and the UK, 6 to 10 working days in most countries; the US, Canada and Australia, 7 to 12; the rest of the world, 10 to 30. Some countries are faster or slower, and the shipping page shows your country. Production runs 2 to 3 working days on top of that, and customs, weather and public holidays move the estimate.
Shipping times by countryWho pays if I send it back?
Return postage is yours, and a faulty or wrong item is on us. We print one piece for one person and have no shelf to collect for, so tell us at info@thwrd.com within your 14 days and we refund within 14 days of that, including the standard outbound shipping you paid.
Returns and right of withdrawalMore questionsFewer questions
What does the Heart Wide Open shirt say?
It reads HEART WIDE OPEN with Luke 6:45: “A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart.” One verse per piece, printed instead of a logo.
What does Luke 6:45 mean?
What you store up in your heart is what comes out, especially under pressure. The good is not produced in the moment. It is drawn from what you have kept all along.
How heavy is the Heart Wide Open tee?
It is 240 gsm combed cotton, pre-shrunk, in black with a washed effect rather than a tie-dye. That is heavyweight: it hangs straight instead of clinging, where a basic 140 to 180 gsm tee drapes close. The fabric guide compares every weight.
Is the Heart Wide Open t-shirt oversized?
Yes. Heart Wide Open is a loose, oversized tee with drop shoulders that still fits true to size. It comes in S to XL, and an L measures 63 by 79 cm (24.8 by 31.1 in), chest by length, laid flat. He is 6'1 and wears L; she is 5'6 and wears S.
Is there a white Heart Wide Open shirt?
Yes. The Heart Wide Open Black & White comes in black or white, as a front print or a back print. This version is black with a washed effect.
What is The Word?
The Word is a faith-rooted streetwear brand from Denmark. Heavyweight combed cotton, declarative typography, words drawn from scripture. The garment is the medium, never the meaning. It states what you serve without asking anything of the person reading it.
What sizes does The Word offer?
The Word offers sizes S through 2XL on most pieces. We use 240–260 g/m² premium combed cotton with an oversized fit. Use our Find My Size tool on each product page for guidance.
Do you offer bundles or discounts?
Yes. Pair any tee or hoodie with our Heavyweight Sweatpants and the bundle discount applies automatically at checkout. No code needed.
Where is The Word based?
The Word is based in Denmark and ships worldwide. It was founded by Thomas Finn and Krisztina Maria, a family brand built in one of the most secular corners of Europe.
