Rockabilly TShirt

All About the Ride

 

In the 1950’s, when rockabilly began, everybody following the trend dressed alike.  Men wanted to look like Elvis Presley and Buddy Holly, with Daddy-O shirts, oversized sport coats, slacks, and creeper shoes.  Women wore pedal pushers with gingham blouses or swing dresses with peek toe heels.  In the present day, it is not realistic for all rockabillies to dress this way on a daily basis.  Daddy-O style shirts are worn for bowling, so the style has gotten confused.  Women wear capris every day, so the pants don’t set them apart.

Today, many people get the point across by wearing a rockabilly tshirt.  What is a rockabilly tshirt?  Well, all tshirts have a topic, unless you go and buy a package of plain white Hanes or Fruit of the Loom tshirts.  A rockabilly tshirt speaks about the same kind of thing that a song or tattoo would.  Rockabilly artwork and music could be about anything, but most of the major anthems were about music, girls, or cars.

Rockabilly tshirts today may show replicas of vintage pinups, or they may say “rockabilly”.  They may even sport pictures of the rockabilly legends from the 1950’s, like Roy Orbison or Carl Perkins.  But most rockabilly tshirts advertise either cars or motorcycles.  Yes, rockabilly tshirts are all about the ride.  Everything from Indian Motorcycles to Castrol motor oil, and Hemi engines can be found as the topic of a rockabilly tshirt.

Hollywood Hotrods make a lot of rockabilly tshirts, and MyBabyJo also manufactures several tshirts with imitation pinups.  So-Cal offers tshirts for rockabilly lovers as well.  Of course, this doesn’t mean that everyone wearing a Harley Davidson tshirt is a rockabilly.  However, rockabilly tshirts are more likely to show off a love for such vehicles.

Rockabilly tshirts are popular even among the non-rockabilly crowd, but if you see someone wearing this sort of shirt on a daily basis, you can be sure that you have an authentic rockabilly in your presence.
