The shirt: Your choice of fabrics and colors:

  • 100% cotton Made in the USA shirt in Carolina blue. Grown, knitted, dyed, and sewn in the USA. 6.1 oz Your best choice if you're looking for a 100% Made in the USA shirt.  S- 5X. See size chart.
  • Our standard 4.3 oz. Poly-Cotton shirt in Light blue heather and Black that gets rave reviews. Our softest shirt. It's also our thinnest and lightest. It is very high-quality and long-wearing, but it is thin and light. Lots of people love them, which you can see in the reviews, but if you judge t-shirt quality based on weight or thickness, do not get this one. Instead, get one of the two 100% cotton shirts above. If you're looking for our softest shirt, the one people rave about, this is the one. S - 3X. See size chart.

Note that the $3 price difference for the 100% cotton Made in the USA shirt is our higher wholesale cost; there is no additional margin.

If the size you want is not available, our "Revolutionary Superheroes" design is also in a black 100% cotton made in USA long sleeved shirtblack women's cut v-neck shirt, light blue pullover sweatshirt and charcoal grey crewneck sweatshirt, and a light blue heather tank top for women.

We also have this design in a red shirt for kids.

This design is also in a  large 24" x 36" poster printed on glossy 100 lb. paper, small 5x7 print, a die-cut sticker, a magnet, and a pocket notebook.


Thanks to Alex and History Dame for the photo.

Thanks to John and Rick for the photo of them wearing the t-shirt during Twin Day at their school. They are both US History Teachers in San Antonio, TX.

Timing

We try to ship orders within three business days of receiving them. This applies to in-stock items. Framed items or items requiring personalization may take up to two weeks longer. If there is an extended delay, it will be noted on the product page.

We close for a week over Independence Day and Christmas. A notice will appear at the top of every page of the site in advance of this closure.

We ship most orders via USPS, so if the post office is closed, we won't be shipping orders that day.

If you need to receive your order by a certain date, such as to give as a gift or have for a trip, we recommend ordering at least two weeks in advance, especially if you are using USPS shipping. 

If you're looking for reliable, on-time deliveries, we strongly suggest upgrading to "UPS 3 Business Day Select Shipping."

Additional notes:

  • When fulfillment takes longer, such as around the Christmas holidays, we'll put up an announcement in the site and will list recommended shipping deadlines below.
  • If an item is out of stock, we will contact you.
  • If one of your items is an advance order, that will be noted on the product page along with an estimate of when it will ship. If that estimated date changes, the product page will be updated.

          Founding Fathers and a Mother Shirt!

          I got this shirt because we owe so much to our founding Father and Mothers. I naturally had to get the Carolina Blue being a native of North Carolina. It is beautiful and good quality. I can't wait to wear it. Shipping was fast too.
