Recently bought this, I haven't found any shirt that looks exactly like it.
I Also don't know why it seems that dave grohl's name seems to be spelled "dave crohl" on the shirt

Hmmmmmm. Definitely a boot, but is it vintage or modern. That Spring Ford tag looks really off - but also looks like the photo is stretched - can you please take another photo of the front and back?

Where did you buy this?
I knew the tag was off, it does appear that it's a lot taller and less wide than legit SF tags.

There's a handful of things wrong with it. Even the rear of the tag.
If you go through this archive above you'll see the font they chose for Spring Ford isn't right.
Focus on the S and the G, where it's most obvious. Yours is more of a script/handwriting font, whereas real ones don't have the letter connected.
Looks like this one is coming out of Thailand, maybe Malaysia - I'm not fully sure what era it is but seems recent based on some digging I did.

Yeah, I bought the shirt from Malaysia.
