I’m not sure what you cannot say about The Jackson Five that already hasn’t been said. No other R&B group sold more albums during the ‘70s then these Brothers from Gary, IN. We pay much respect to this group that helped define R&B during the ‘70s.
The signature "J5" graphic is printed on a soft 4.3 oz. premium tri-blend t-shirt. The shirt runs a little small so if you like a looser fit, order the next larger size.

If you lived in NY during the '80s or ever visited there than 98.7 KISS-FM was THE station to hear the latest in R&B, Hip-Hip and Dance music rivaling that of WBLS. Their Friday and Saturday night mastermix parties are legendary. Sadly, KISS was purchased by WBLS in 2012. However, we celebrate its contribution in keeping us all listening and dancing.

Bootsy Collins helped define a new sound in the 70s: FUNK! Bootsy got his start working for James Brown in 1970. You can hear him thumpin’ his bass on Brown’s “Sex Machine” and “Super Bad.” After leaving the Godfather, Bootsy hooked up with George Clinton in ’72 and the rest is history. This shirt celebrates his 1978 album “Bootsy? Playa of the Year” which featured the #1 R&B single, “Bootzilla.”

If there’s a Funk band that’s unsung, it’s Brass Construction. Hailing from Brooklyn, these Brothers burst on the scene in 1975 with their debut album “Brass Construction” which birthed such hits as “Movin” and “Ha Cha Cha” both of which were top 10 hits on the R&B and Dance charts with “Movin” reaching #1. If you want to know where the “Brass” in Brass Construction is from just play one of these tunes and you’ll find out immediately. Brass Construction went on to record 10 albums from ’75 to ’85 with two achieving Gold certification and one Platinum.

Defining R&B and Disco in the late 70s was none other than Chic. They exploded on the scene in 1977 with “Everybody Dance” and that’s what everyone did: Dance! In 1978, they released their second album, “C’est CHIC” which featured the iconic cut “Le Freak” which sold over 6 million copies and the melodic “I Want Your Love.” The album reached #4 on the Billboard album chart, topped the R&B chart for 11 straight weeks and was selected as Billboard Magazine 1979 R&B Album of the Year. “Freak out” to this smooth t-shirt that honors CHIC.

The t-shirt we use to print the designs is from a company call Next Level Apparel. They make some of the best t-shirts in the apparel biz. Our base t-shirt is their premium tri-blend crew neck t-shirt. This t-shirt is a mashup of 50% polyester, 25% combed ring spun and 25% rayon. That mix makes for three things: an extremely soft t-shirt that drapes nicely with a vintage-type look. So you’re getting a cool looking shirt that feels great. The t-shirt weighs 4.3 ounces. So you’re not wearing a bulletproof vest but a mid-weight garment. And since the fabric is mostly polyester and rayon, there is little, if any, shrinkage. Now the t-shirt does run a little small so if you like a roomer fit, please select the next size above what you normally wear.
Also, we don’t believe in offering you a one-style-fits-all or “unisex” t-shirt (whatever that is). We give the fellas and ladies a t-shirt that’s specifically made for them and their unique features. If a particular style of t-shirt isn’t available for a gender then we’ll let you know and recommend a size in that shirt that may accommodate you.
In the future, we’ll rollout different styles of tees like a scoop neck (for that off-the-shoulder Flashdance look), long sleeve, hoody and ¾ sleeve raglan so you’ll have a variety of options to choose from year round.
We recommend turning your t-shirt inside out when washing. Please machine wash in cold water with like colors. It’s best to hang dry but it’s cool if you tumble dry on low setting. Please do not iron on the decoration.
