Please step aside, TV-commercial-mom-plagued-by-ring-around-the-collar, you wouldn’t stand a chance against a vintage stain. They’re the toughest around; they’ve had 15+ years to set in and have since been cured numerous times in the dryer. Here’s the kicker: the perpetrator of the stain already attempted to remove it when it was fresh. They failed, and folded. Hey, don’t complain – that’s probably why the t-shirt is now in your possession.

I polled the majority of the sellers from our 20 Best Spots to Buy Vintage T-Shirts asking for their top-secret techniques. As a vendor myself I thought I had heard it all. But I was very impressed with their feedback and you will be too. Some of this information will help you safely restore your vintage tees’ original sheen.

While I’m compiling the Ultimate Vintage T-Shirt Stain Removal Guide, I welcome you to chime-in with your best tips. If your answer is one that I have yet to hear, I’ll include it in the guide, credit you and link to your company (if it’s t-shirt related). The never-ending battle against stains shall be a community effort.

So how do you fight stains? Please discuss below. Name your stain and your solution.

Each week we feature an interesting vintage tee that’s currently on the eBay auction block. Please feel free to link us if you create or discover an auction we might like.

Guess who was named #1 on our top 5 list of vintage thrash metal t-shirts?

And you thought they were just a myth. Remember that really bad movie starring Nicholas Cage called 8mm? The one where he discovers an actual snuff film? That’s exactly how I felt watching the video below. Brace yourself folks. “There’s things you’re going to see that you can’t un-see. They get in your head and they stay there.”

We just listed part one of a recent deadstock discovery in our store. It’s a kick ass collection of various vintage GNR tees. All the gems are in attendance: the Robert Williams banned artwork, Stoned in LA, Metallica, a rare Tokyo Japan Bad Apples tee and many more. The best part is that we have all sizes covered – including an XXXL Screen Stars tag and an array of Brockum sizes.

We are the people that can find whatever you may need. If you got the money honey, we got your disease.
