Re: Hanes tag
I've seen this tag on lots of shirt with 70s copyright dates on the print, so i would go with 70s.
Re: Hanes tag
I got the above tag inquiry through email and coincidentally just received another Hanes question:
Hey there.
Recently, I purchased a similar-looking vintage KISS t-shirt(see attachment for the design) off eBay and when it was shipped to my house, I realised the tag wasn't removed. In fact, it reads HANES 100% Cotton Made in U.S.A. I've checked it against the Vintage 103 : The Brands guide (http://www.defunkd.com/blog.vintageafic ... d-gallery/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) and was surprised it wasn't on the list of brands in the '80s or the 90s'.
The closest I could get was the HANES Poly-Cotton XL 46-48, fourth from left, first row. Does this mean I've purchased a reproduction of the actual t-shirt and not the original vintage one? Or did I purchased, a lack of a better term, a 'reissue' of the t-shirt?
Thanks.
Cheers!
The Hanes list at redcloud is a lot more extensive as far as Hanes goes - the tag at the bottom left reads 100% cotton made in the USA. But the tag on our guide that you refer to also had a few versions, where "poly-cotton" was written sometimes it read "100% cotton".
If that still doesn't answer your question please post a photo of the tag.
Thanks
JJ

Re: Hanes tag
Here's the tag he spoke of - classic 80s Hanes tag, which specified different types of fabric along the blue stripe - "poly-cotton" or in this case "100% cotton".

Re: Hanes tag
I've seen that hanes tag on a 1992 Toronto Blue Jays world series tee as well.
Have vintage Elvis tees? Let me know!
Re: Hanes tag
Yeah they always spill in to other decades because of overstock. Vintage counterfeiters still manage to get their hands on huge quantities of deadstock vintage blanks.

Re: Hanes tag
Any info on this Hanes tag? I'm guessing 70's? When did 75/25% shirts first appear?
