Printed with high-quality inks for long-lasting color and comfort. This classic cotton tee wears like a memory. The soft, mid-weight fabric and relaxed crew cut let vintage-inspired graphics sit naturally across the chest, like an old road sign you’d spot at a weekend car meet. It feels sturdy without being stiff — the kind of shirt you reach for when you want comfort that lasts through a drive, a morning wrenching on a project, or an afternoon wandering flea markets. Subtle details — a ribbed collar that keeps its shape, shoulder tape that prevents stretching, and a tear-away label for scratch-free wear — make this more than a novelty; it’s built to be worn and lived in. The muted white base puts the retro emblem front-and-center for an effortless, used-in-a-good-way look.
