Chicago Union Giants Hand-Painted T-Shirt

$42.00 $0.00

Want the old school real deal? This is it! Vintage tees created one at a time, by hand! Each one decorated by hand (like in the old days), and each one an original. Each features a naturally muted, naturally distressed image that harkens back to the early days of professional sports.

The Chicago Union Giants club was more than just a Negro League baseball powerhouse — it was a strong, solid well-managed organization that demonstrated the viability of African American baseball as a professional enterprise. Negro National League found Rube Foster achieved regional and national acclaim as a star with the Union Giants, and the team gave birth to Foster's remarkable Chicago American Giants and the Negro National League.

The waterbased inks and dyes used in producing the shirt's unique design are applied to the fabric with a hand brushing technique, and the design is washfast. Because they are hand-painted, each shirt will be a little different than all the others.

The shirt is made of preshrunk 100% soft, ringspun cotton fabric. The shirt is imported, but decorated right here in the USA.

Begin or continue your collection of extraordinary vintage tees with this Chicago Union Giants shirt.

Please note that your shirt will be individually produced just for your order. Production time is normally 5 business days, but varies seasonally depending upon order volume.
