By the late ‘90s, Blockbuster Video had become a cultural institution and the undisputed king of home entertainment. With thousands of brightly lit blue-and-yellow stores across North America, a Friday night trip to Blockbuster was a weekly ritual for millions of people. Customers browsed endless aisles of VHS tapes, increasingly popular DVDs, video games, and snacks, all while hoping the latest hit movie wasn't already checked out. This is where Blockbuster’s new leadership realized that their entire business model was based on giving the majority of customers their second or third choice. Since there is nothing worse in retail than being out of stock, Blockbuster launched a new campaign called “Go Home Happy” that involved pumping up the numbers of new releases and giving anyone who was unable to rent their chosen title a free rental for their trouble. This design is based on the shirts that employees wore and some stores offered as giveaways.
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 Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing 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, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch, making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

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.
