About us
One shop. Two doors.
Insanely Cozy Designs is a small Brooklyn apparel company with two ways in. Through one door is a library. Through the other is a clinic. Same people, same care, very different reading material.
Quiet, please
Shhirts Library
My mom was a librarian, so a library was always going to happen.
The General Stacks hold bespoke everyday tees you'll only find here, printed when you check them out. Special Collections are one of a kind: secondhand shirts hand-painted with UV-reactive art and hidden messages that only show up under a blacklight, each one catalogued and credited to the artist who made it. Unauthorized Biographies is where the parodies are shelved.

The Clinic
The Clinic started with my own diagnoses.
Every hat, tee, hoodie, and tank carries a real ICD-10 code, the same kind a doctor writes on a chart, in the colors and styles you choose. Mental health is health, and wearing your code is one way to say it out loud.
Whichever door you came in through, welcome. Make yourself cozy. Just keep it down in the Library.
