Looking for a timeless piece of apparel that celebrates the iconic John Wayne? Look no further than our John Wayne t-shirt, perfect for fans of the legendary actor and all-around Western hero.
John Wayne, born Marion Robert Morrison on May 26, 1907, in Winterset, Iowa, was an American actor and filmmaker who became an icon of the Western genre. He grew up in California and attended Glendale High School before enrolling at the University of Southern California, where he played football.
Wayne began his acting career in the 1920s, appearing in small roles in silent films. He gained prominence in the 1930s, starring in a series of B-movies for Warner Bros. In 1939, he starred in "Stagecoach," a landmark Western film directed by John Ford, which catapulted him to stardom.
Over the course of his career, Wayne appeared in over 170 films and became known for his rugged, macho persona and his portrayal of cowboys and soldiers. Some of his most famous films include "True Grit," "The Searchers," "Rio Bravo," and "The Alamo."
Wayne was also a political conservative and supported the anti-communist movement in Hollywood during the 1950s. He was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 1979 and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom posthumously in 1980.
Wayne died on June 11, 1979, at the age of 72, from stomach cancer. He remains a cultural icon and a beloved figure in American cinema.

Most of our t-shirts are printed onto the Gildan range of clothing. The Gildan tees are 100% preshrunk cotton. We find these tees are particularly suited to DTG printing and are available in a wide variety of sizes and colours. Occasionally, when stock dictates, we will use a similar brand of equivalent quality.
All of our t-shirts are manufactured using the latest Direct To Garment printing (DTG) printing methods. Unlike traditional screen printing DTG does not require detailed layer seperation, screen preparation etc which makes it the ideal print solution for detailed, multi-coloured designs. As the name suggests, all our t-shirts have their designs printed directly onto the garment using specially formulated garment inks.
For best results we recommend washing all our t-shirts inside out with similar colours and on a cool 30 degree wash. To avoid any excessive shrinkage avoid the tumble dryer and let Mother Nature do her work by line drying your tee.
