Supertouch Gatorgum shirt

It’s been awhile since we have seen newcopcar around these parts, but his return is triumphant. As is his description. Check it.

“You are bidding on an original SUPERTOUCH t-shirt. This is an original from the late ’80s; classic pre-Rev “arch type” design. I love this colorway! It reminds me more of a Florida intramural basketball team’s shirt than it does anything remotely hardcore related. The only reason I’m getting rid of this is because I just found a bootleg that actual fits me better. Go figure. This, however, is not a bootleg. I’ve included an absolutely horrendous photo of the label (you can actually see it more clearly in the first photo) so you can see that this is a late ’80s Hanes Beefy-T. I’ve seen this booted on a later-era Hanes Beefy-T with a black label and, more recently on a Gildan Tee with a white label. Shirt measures about 21″ from armpit to armpit and about 27″ from collar to hem. Size XL (46-48), 100 % Cotton. There’s some fading and cracking to the screen as is visible, and a few, small inoffensive spots, all visible in the first photo there. Overall, it’s in pretty good condition for a shirt of its age. Again, great colorway, appropriate for either the occasionall summer BBQ, or for the holidays if you have any colorblind relatives. Also reminds me a lot of that old Gatorgum packaging. Gross. Gatorgum is not up for auction.”


I’m curious to see if the trend of high priced Supertouch shirts continues.
