This design is also in a made in America long-sleeved shirt, sticker and a magnet.
Also available, the Civil War "Irish Brigade" shirt.
Historical Background behind the Design
The Iron Brigade, also known as The Black Hats, Black Hat Brigade, Iron Brigade of the West, and originally King's Wisconsin Brigade was an infantry brigade in the Union Army of the Potomac during the American Civil War. Although it fought entirely in the Eastern Theater, it was composed of regiments from three Western states that are now within the region of the Midwest. Noted for its strong discipline, its unique uniform appearance and its tenacious fighting ability, the Iron Brigade suffered the highest percentage of casualties of any brigade in the war.
The nickname "Iron Brigade", with its connotation of fighting men with iron dispositions, was applied formally or informally to a number of units in the Civil War and in later conflicts. The Iron Brigade of the West was the unit that received the most lasting publicity in its use of the nickname.

It is an excellent shirt I like especially since "Made in America. The material is soft but comfortable to wear and I would buy from the seller again.
I tour guide at a civil war museum . This is a perfect shirt for me .
Loved this t-shirt, I wear it whenever I can
The shirt is suuuppppppeeeerrrr soft. I really like the medal over the chest with the regiments listed. It’s really cool with all the battles that they fought listed on the back. Over all, great shirt
Order was detailed, on time and best of all my son loved the T Shirt!
Bought a Civil War themed shirt and magnet for my dad and he absolutely LOVED it. Highly recommend! Fast shipping too!
Really makes you feel stronger, wit the word iron on it, looks like a gym shirt lol
I did my thesis on the Sixth Wisconsin, which was a part of the Iron Brigade, and it's great to have this tee to remind me. Most of the battles are listed on the back and it's soft. It washes up really nice and fits true to size. I love it!
