Hello! I’ve come across a Bob Marley & The Wailers - Survival t-shirt. The tag reads “BY TOP CONCEPT”, and it has a small tag under that with just an L on it, but there are no other tags throughout. It’s red with black pinstripes on the front, blue sleeves, a blue back, and is single stitch on the bottom.
I can’t find anything about this brand or this shirt online so I thought maybe someone here could help. I’ll attach some photos. Any info or ideas will help. Thanks y’all!

Very cool. My first impression is that it could be of the era. I can't find any other record of that tag.
Maybe a homegrown indie tee company out of Jamaica?
What is the pit-to-pit measurement in inches?

I like to hear those ideas haha. I was thinking originally that it might be 90s but I’m leaning more towards 80s after some more research. Just wish I could find more about the brand! The measurements are:
Shoulders = 22.5 inches
Pit to pit = 22 inches
Length = 26.5 inches
Thanks!

Yeah a 22" is likely not 79. But if it's local to Jamaica, who knows what their sizing was like, but from the t-shirt tags I do know are from there it seems to be similar. And it's also a unique shirt, not a standard tee. Anywho, good luck, your best bet is indeed the tag. I own a Beatles tee that took almost a decade to figure out, and this is a similar situation.
