This pendant is inspired by the infamous words of Charles Bukowski — the same words engraved on his tombstone: “DON’T TRY.”
At first glance, it might sound like defeatist advice. But it’s anything but. In a letter to a friend, Bukowski explained what he really meant:
“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. It could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, jobs, and maybe your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery — isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine.”
The message isn’t about giving up — it’s about not forcing what isn’t meant for you, and about giving yourself completely to what sets your soul on fire.
The front of the pendant features a lone boxer, standing against a background shattered like broken glass. On the back, hand-engraved: “DON’T TRY.”
A reminder to fight the good fight. And when the time comes… don’t try.

Ring Size Guide
Ring Size Guide
The most reliable way to find your ring size is to swing by a local jeweler and have them measure your finger properly. But if that’s not an option — no worries. Here’s a simple way to figure it out from home.
Before You Measure
Decide which finger you want to wear your ring on. Remember — your dominant hand usually runs a little larger than your non-dominant one.
Also, make sure your hands are at a comfortable room temperature. Cold makes fingers shrink, while heat makes them swell. We’re looking for that everyday, honest size.
How to Measure
1. Cut a thin strip of paper or grab a piece of string.
2. Wrap it snugly around the base of your finger — tight, but not cutting off circulation.
3. Mark the spot where the ends meet.
4. Lay it flat and measure the length in millimeters.
5. Use our Ring Size Chart below to match your measurement to a US ring size.
| Inside Diameter (mm) | Finger Circumference (mm) | Ring Size (US) |
| 15.8 | 49.3 | 5 |
| 16.5 | 51.9 | 6 |
| 16.9 | 53.1 | 6.5 |
| 17.4 | 54.5 | 7 |
| 17.8 | 55.7 | 7.5 |
| 18.2 | 57.1 | 8 |
| 18.5 | 58.2 | 8.5 |
| 18.9 | 59.3 | 9 |
| 19.4 | 61 | 9.5 |
| 19.8 | 62.3 | 10 |
| 20.2 | 63.5 | 10.5 |
| 20.7 | 65 | 11 |
| 21.5 | 67.5 | 12 |
| 22.3 | 70.2 | 13 |
"About Our .25 Sizes"
You might’ve noticed we don’t list a 10 or 10.5 — but a 10.25 instead. Simple reason: it covers both comfortably. Rings naturally fit a little different depending on the day, the weather, or how you wear them. A 10.25 hits that sweet spot between too tight and too loose. Most people won’t feel the difference between a 10, 10.25, or 10.5...so we went with what works.
If you're in between sizes reach out and I'll help you figure out what works best!
