Either, Or

Matching outfits and couple’s clothing often feature clever and complementary phrases that reflect the harmony or contrast between two individuals. These phrases can range from classic pairs like ‘naughty’ and ‘nice’ to more whimsical ones like ‘yin’ and ‘yang’ or ‘thing one’ and ‘thing two.’ They serve as a fun way for people to express their connection or differences with one another through fashion.

However, not all attempts at such pairings hit the mark. In the case of these shirts, the phrases ‘hug’ and ‘hit’ were chosen, which takes a rather unconventional and puzzling approach. While ‘hug’ conveys warmth and affection, ‘hit’ has a negative connotation, making it difficult to imagine anyone willingly sporting the ‘hit’ shirt. The creators of these shirts may have misunderstood the essence of matching apparel and the sentiment it aims to convey, resulting in an unintentionally humorous juxtaposition.
