Got two here, pretty sure both are 80's but want a second opinion.

Champknit for Team Hanes...never seen. Whats on it...is it a standard t shirt? It def. has the 80s Hanes tag design elements. If it is 90s probably very early.

The second one is the pre Screen Stars generic RN 13765 tee. Very cool Ive never seen that particular incarnation with Dacron. The general assumption is they are 70s.

I've at least seen that Champknit tag on a shirt from 1993 (or at least a 1993 copyright date), so I'd say early-to-mid 90s on that one.

It's a Norte Dame football shirt, no date given though. Thanks for the info, fellas.

That makes sense - line extension for jersey/sportswear. Probably to compete with LOGO 7, Trench and Champion.
