Talk travel to me.

Have you ever made an *ass* of yourself trying to communicate in a foreign country?

If you're shaking your head "no", then you're lying.

Or maybe your lexicon is ~limited~ so there's a ton of important stuff you don't know how to say?

Let the stress-fest begin.

Enter the Iconspeak tee ($33), a shirt that features important icons so that you can communicate non-verbally with THE WORLD.

The shirt came to be when George, Steven, and Florian — three travel-obsessed friends who had met in Bern, Switzerland — went to Vietnam on vacation. While on their trip, George's motorcycle broke down, and he had a hard time conveying this information to a local mechanic.

How it works: Point to one or a series of the 40 key icons to depict your message.

You can say things like:

- Is the water safe to drink?
- I have an emergency.
- Where can I rent a bike?

There’s also the symbol for car, beer, tap water, tools, clock, camera, wi-fi, and a bunch of others that'll get you out of a traveling pickle.
