Southwest Detroit Tee

Description

The Southwest Detroit Tee is a Southwest Detroit t-shirt printed in Detroit on a unisex cotton blank. Four colorways, sizes S through 6XL.

The design

Southwest is the answer to anyone who thinks Detroit only ever lost people. The neighborhood held through decades when the rest of the city was thinning, built Vernor Highway into a destination, and kept the Ambassador Bridge as its backdrop. Neighborhood shirts mean something specific here – you are claiming a place, not a city. This one is for people who can name the cross streets.

Questions about this tee

What size should I order? The unisex blank runs true to size, so order what you normally wear. Size up one for an oversized fit through the body and shoulders. We carry S through 6XL and the cut stays proportional across the whole range.

Can you make a shirt for a different Detroit neighborhood? Yes – that is most of what our custom side does. We print in-house, so a one-off for your block or a run for a neighborhood association is straightforward. Send a note through custom work and we reply within one business day.

How is this printed? Direct-to-garment, which bonds ink into the fabric rather than sitting on top as a thick layer. The result feels soft immediately instead of stiff, and it holds up through repeated washing when you wash cold and inside out.

Also available as a hoodie, crewneck and long sleeve.
