Super soft t-shirt inspired by the Ames department stores of the Eastern and Midwest United States. Also available in cozy tri-blend hoodies.

Ames Department Store started in 1958 when Herbert, Irving, and Milton Gilman partnered with Philip Feltman to open Ames Worsted Textile Co. mill in Southbridge, Connecticut. Their goal was to bring discount department stores to small towns and rural areas, and they took off from there! By the late 1980s, they had well over 200 stores, and Ames had acquired Zayre and their nearly 400-store chain. By the late 90s, they had acquired Hills department stores as well, making the Ames brand the fourth largest discount retail chain in America. Ames finally closed its doors in 2002. If you’ve heard it’s coming back, be sure to check out our Core Memories Unlocked! blog post: “The Great Ames Revival Hoax (And A New Bounty)”.

50/50 cotton-poly blend. Made and printed in the USA. Velvety Local Vyntage logo on right sleeve. This t-shirt is now tag-less.

We're very proud to help you share shopping memories.

Our tees are unisex/men's fit. Most customers say they run true to size.

For most men we recommend their regular men's size, but if they're often between sizes we recommend going with the larger of those two sizes.

For most women we recommend one size smaller than their regular women's fit size, especially if they prefer the fit to be slightly more "fitted" (tighter).

All of our t-shirts, with the exception of the "faded yellow" color, are premium quality, medium-weight, 50/50 blends (cotton/polyester), giving them that buttery-soft feel you’re looking for!
