Hey guys,

Just formally joined, but have been using the vintage tag guide on here religiously for months whenever i thrift shop. My vintage obsession / hoarding has driven me to start an online vintage store.

Anyway, picked this tee up today with a brand tag called USA Ts, which I've never heard of or seen before. Just trying to figure out if it's late 70s or early 80s. Anyone know anything about it? Thanks!

Good one thanks for sharing. Could be either I guess - that was the era that different brands of poly were noteworthy for some reason. What's the print?

It's a NY Arrows shirt, some NYC indoor soccer team that was pretty big in the late 70's early 80's. Pretty cool shirt actually, on the back is the Newport Red logo.

Because nothing goes better with sports than cigarettes!

mmmmmmm the smooth taste of newport. its 80s Id say. Generally tag designs were more basic or genetic in the 70s
