Sturgis 50 Years of Thunder 1990 F/B Vintage Men’s T-Shirt

The Black Hills Motor Classic, aka Sturgis Rally, is a motorcycle rally held annually in Sturgis, South Dakota, and the surrounding Black Hills region. It was founded in 1938 by a group of motorcycle riders and originally focused on stunts and races. Over the years, the rally has become a pluralistic endeavor that consists of events put on by many different groups ranging from road trips and races to concerts and parties. 1990 was the event’s 50th anniversary, and before you whip out the calculator, several years during WWII were canceled due to gas rationing. From the original nine riders in 1938, attendance in the modern era has historically been around 500,000 people, so needless to say the event is still going strong after all these years and considered the ultimate destination for motorcycle enthusiasts from around the world.

Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Gildan 5000B tees, one of the best-wearing kid’s t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, this youth pro weight tee is perfect for every kid who wants a comfortable shirt to play, relax, or romp around in and our durable, high-quality prints will survive many adventures.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.

All sizes are provided in inches!
