B + EMETH = be-emet: “in truth”. The Classic Varsity line kids' t-shirt, in its widest palette: nine colors, from black to pastels. Set on the name EMETH, the B reads be-emet (באמת), “in truth”, “for real”.
On the chest, in the center, a large cream B in college lettering, outlined with a dark double border, with a cracked-paint effect. A band runs across it and carries EMETH in capitals. The sleeves and back are plain. Good to know: on the pastel colors, the word EMETH, also in cream, is more discreet; it's the B and its dark outline that stand out.
Be-emet: being true, from an early age
In Hebrew, the letter beth (ב) placed before a word means “in”, “with”. Emet (אמת) is truth; be-emet means “in truth”, “sincerely”, “for real”. It's said every day in the Psalms: “Hachem is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth” (Psalms 145:18). A simple idea to pass on to a child: tell the truth, and be true.
