1994 nine inch nails: the downward spiral t-shirt

Post by maeve »

Hi, my uncle bought this t-shirt back in the 90s (before I was born, I'm 27 now haha). The tag has been cut off unfortunately. I know bootlegs existed back then too, so I wanted to get some expert opinions before potentially selling it. Can someone take a look and help me verify if it's original? Also curious about the price range if it turns out to be legit. Thanks in advance!

Bootlegs of this print are only modern.

Is there a back print?

There's nothing strange about the screen printing and material, but it feels real because when compared to mine, there's no difference. Then I compared it to the fake one, the fake one is paler. Maybe this is a European product. Does the collar feel thick when held?

Definitely bought in Europe (my guess is Prague'94). The material feels premium overall.

Hey, definitely legit.

The european release and the US version have slightly different back logos, but i can confirm this is a real 94‘ european tour tee. I have the same one. :) would you consider selling it? :) greetings
