Commonly known as “the Golden Kola,” Inca Kola is a distinctly Peruvian soft drink created in 1935 by British immigrant Joseph Robinson Lindley and his family. Instantly recognizable by its brilliant golden-yellow color, the soda has a remarkably sweet, fruity flavor traditionally associated with lemon verbena, or hierba luisa, although many American drinkers compare its unusual taste to bubblegum or cream soda. Over the decades, Inca Kola became deeply ingrained in Peruvian culture, where its colorful advertising emphasized national identity and helped it compete successfully against much larger international soft-drink brands. While it has never achieved the same mainstream popularity outside Peru, Inca Kola remains a source of national pride and can be found internationally in Peruvian restaurants, Latin American markets, and specialty shops, usually sold in its familiar bright yellow bottles and cans.
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.
