Hey everyone,

I'm just getting into collecting vintage shirts and could really use your advice.

I came across NIRVANA NEVERMIND Long Sleeve shirt with a Fruit of the Loom tag, but I'm not sure if it's Legit.
Long sleeve versions of this design are rare, and I've never seen one with a Fruit of the Loom tag.

Do you think it's Legit? even if it's not, would it still be worth it as a bootleg?
This might be my first somewhat pricey vintage shirt, so any thoughts you have would be super helpful.

Thanks so much.

That looks very fresh, known as the Nirvana Roskilde festival shirt.
The fruit of the loom tag is 1990s.
I have the same shirt but used and obviously vintage, I will have a closer look at it and see how it compares.

Thanks for posting! I think it look a-ok?

Thank you so much for everyone's replies and help!
I really appreciate the pictures, as they allow me to compare them.

Based on the feedback, it seems acceptable overall.
My only concern, as mentioned in the replies, is that the shirt looks VERY clean and unused for 90s shirt.

This could mean:

Positive: It’s a clean/unused vintage shirt.
Negative: It could be a recently made copy.

However, I’ve never seen a recently made version of this shirt.
I need to think carefully about it, but it seems safe to buy it for above $200??

Thanks once again for your help!
