Can't really make out that tag. And yes, I agree it's a euro bootleg. From the In Utero era, 93-ish. It's genuine vintage though. I'm going to reach out to my Nirvana guy for a comment. He might be interested.
Are the sleeves/bottom double stitched? A lot of euro tees from that era and even before it - were already using double stitch, which is one of the many exceptions to the single stitch craze that's going on.

Thanks for your reply, valuable information.
Regarding the stitching I am not sure, should I attach some close-up photos of the arms and bottom, both inside and outside? I tried to zoom in on the arms and bottom using the images I posted earlier but they tend to get a bit blurry, not sure if they are of any use. As I am traveling for work for 3 days I am not able to upload until Thursday the 24th, but ill do it asap once home again!
I would be more than happy if your Nirvana guy would have any interest in buying it, and if it turns out to be a rare piece of vintage Nirvana merch it would feel great passing it to someone that's passionate about it.

Yessir, double stitch. You might get some people saying that because it's double stitched it's more modern - but euro tees have been double stitched for far longer. The Nirvana expert says 93 or 94. He said he values it at around $250-300 in the condition it's in.
