WEARMATH.COM is proud to release another awesome math t-shirt design. Heawood famously discovered that every map on a torus can be coloured with seven colours, and this is best possible, since the pictured map (Heawood’s Map) depicts a tiling of the torus with seven hexagons, every pair of which shares an edge.

Note that over the coming months we will be changing how the WEARMATH.COM math t-shirt store is organized. Rather than being organized by type of mathematics apparel, the math t-shirt store will be organized by design. This will allow us to provide you with a wider range of products to help you share wonderful mathematical ideas and images.

WEARMATH.COM is pleased to announce our latest design based on the 5-edge coloring of the Petersen graph.

Petersen Graph 5-edge Coloring Math T-shirt from WEARMATH.COM (as a Ringet Tee)
In an earlier design, we used a 3-vertex coloring of the Petersen graph as the basis for the design. This property is not that remarkable though. However, it’s a fact that for the Petersen graph
— that is, the automorphism group of the Petersen graph is isomorphic to the symmetric group on five letters and acts on the 5 edge color classes.
The Petersen graph 5-edge coloring math t-shirt design is available as a t-shirt, sweatshirt, long sleeve t-shirt, hoodie, ringer t-shirts, sleeveless t-shirt, and women’s t-shirt in a variety of colors.

The Petersen graph is an undirected graph of with 10 vertices and 15 edges. In graph theory, it provides many counterexamples. The Petersen graph has many interesting properties:1
- It’s nonplanar
- It has chromatic number 3
- It has crossing number 2
- It has orientable genus 1
- It has non-orientable genus 1
- It is a unit distance graph
- It is strongly regular
- It is symmetric
- It is one of only 13 cubic distance-regular graphs
- It has a Hamiltonian path but no Hamiltonian cycle
- It is the smallest vertex-transitive graph that is not a Cayley graph
- It has chromatic index 4
The list goes on….
You can now proudly wear a 3-coloring of the famous Petersen graph with the latest design from WEARMATH.COM.

WEARMATH.COM is proud to announce the release of the Szekeres Snark design:

Szekeres Snark Graph Theory T-Shirt from WEARMATH.COM
A Snark is a connected, bridgeless cubic graph with chromatic index equal to 4. The Szekeres Snark is the fifth known snark with 50 vertices and 75 edges. It was discovered by George Szekeres in 1973.1
This design is available as a t-shirt, sweatshirt, long sleeve t-shirts, hooded sweatshirt, ringer t-shirt, sleeveless t-shirt, and women’s t-shirt in various colors from the WEARMATH.COM Math T-Shirt Store.
