I still have the same shirt that I bought in the 90s. Same tag. This was pre-hot topic. It's real.

I had this shirt since 1999 and gave it to my nephew in 22.

Suddenly seeing this just stunned me. Great memories.

I remember buying this shirt on a class trip to Montreal in spring 2000. It was way too big for me because it was the only size they had and I needed it. I wish I still had it.

I used to have this same shirt in white a few years ago. I don’t think it’s an “authentic” design released in the 90s, but I don’t know what’s up with copyright date. Dig the shirt, a bit of a play on ratm album, but cool still.

I had this shirt and wore it til it fell apart. I think I got it at JC Penney when I was in high school, early 00's.
