The B-52 Stratofortress is a long-range, subsonic strategic bomber that has been a cornerstone of America's ability to deliver an overwhelmingly powerful response anywhere on Earth at a moment's notice. Originally developed to deliver nuclear weapons during the Cold War, the massive eight-engine bomber entered service in 1955 and has evolved into one of the most versatile and enduring aircraft in military history, capable of carrying everything from conventional bombs and precision-guided munitions to nuclear weapons and cruise missiles. With its enormous 185-foot wingspan, distinctive swept wings, and unmistakable silhouette, the B-52 earned the affectionate nickname BUFF, short for "Big Ugly Fat Fucker," a fitting description of this lumbering behemoth. The Stratofortress has seen combat in conflicts ranging from Vietnam to the Gulf War and Afghanistan, proving remarkably adaptable despite its age. While the last B-52 rolled off the assembly line in 1962, continuous upgrades have kept the aircraft relevant, with plans to keep the legendary bombers flying well into the 2050s, potentially giving it an unprecedented century of military service.

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 youโre on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
