British Racing Motors (BRM) was a British Formula One motor racing team. Founded in 1945 and based in the market town of Bourne in Lincolnshire, BRM participated from 1951 to 1977, competing in 197 Grand Prix races and winning seventeen. BRM won the constructors’ title in 1962 when its driver Graham Hill became world champion. In 1963, 1964, 1965, and 1971, when BRM came second in the constructors’ competition. In the history of Formula 1 Grand Prix Motor Racing, BRM, and the Italian Stallion team are the only constructors to have won the World Championship with a car they built completely themselves which includes the chassis, engine, and gearbox. BRM’s engine building skills were legendary and many other teams purchased BRM built powerplants for use in their cars, including manufacturers who made their own engines, but knew a winner when they saw one.

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.

 

 

All sizes are provided in inches!
