Even Monkeys Fall Out of Trees
(猿も木から落ちる) ("Saru mo ki kara ochiru")
Translation: Even experts mess up.
Real meaning: Everyone does.
This Japanese proverb is a gentle reminder that perfection is overrated, and mistakes are part of being human—even if you’re really good at what you do.
Printed in clean, minimalist style, this shirt says a lot without trying too hard. It’s confident, self-aware, and quietly funny—perfect for people who don’t take themselves (or life) too seriously.
Wear it as:
A reminder to yourself
A subtle flex of wisdom
Or a graceful response to “one of those days”
Because falling doesn’t mean failing.
Sometimes it just means you’re human.
Even monkeys fall out of trees.
And that’s okay.
