Memorabilia Can anyone date this shirt for me?

Bought this at a pop up vintage market in Lawrence, Kansas. Wanted to see if anyone could pin down the date of it.

Let me know what she says 😂

u/cadenhead 5d ago

Why did they delete that? It was a perfectly executed dad joke.

u/BlazingFlame0205 5d ago

Maybe his wife wasn’t thrilled with the idea

u/cadenhead 7d ago

The sock is DRI-FIT. That's all I got.

Soft gatekeeping the dogs, what has this sub come to

u/ithinkits7in Stuff The Magic Dragon 7d ago

1993

u/IndirectSarcasm Stuff The Magic Dragon 7d ago

i was thinking like 92-93 also based on the logo.

u/n00klear 7d ago

I would probably say this to. My guess was early to mid 90's

u/cadenhead 7d ago

Is there a manufacturer named on the tag like Nutmeg Mills or Salem?

u/BlazingFlame0205 7d ago

It’s Tultex

There were some "Breakthrough" shirts in the 90's I remember with a wizard and another with Shaq breaking through the shirt. This is similar to that, but honestly I don't think this is an official shirt, I could be wrong but it screams AI artwork to me. Is it a genie, is he clutching hay?...and what does that have to do with orlando? Just feels off

u/nautika 7d ago

Yeah this is similar to the one with the wizard. This one, he's breaking through the wood court? Image search brings up some dude's Pinterest. That's the only other search result with the same image. But I'm going to assume this is from the 90s based on the logo

u/onall4our 7d ago

That was a wood court? guess that makes more sense than hay..lol. It definitely did not read that way to me.

u/cadenhead 7d ago

I thought Blue Hulk Magic Man was emerging from a cornfield.

u/jugboi84 6d ago

Need close up of the sleeves and tag. My guess is 93-97

u/_Lunarfur_ 6d ago

I could, what does it like to do, grab a coffee? ;)

u/dlbags Wendell Carter Jr. 6d ago

Sorry I’m married.

u/IrwinMFletcher Paolo Banchero 2d ago

Um I only date pants, and dress pants at that.

u/jedislurpee Cole Anthony 7d ago

Any date on the tag?

u/BlazingFlame0205 7d ago

Unfortunately not

u/nautika 7d ago

Any numbers? Sometimes those date codes aren't straight forward

u/BlazingFlame0205 7d ago

It says DY69 below the orlando magic in the bottom left but that’s it for numbers

u/Sea-Channel-6112 2d ago

I don’t know. Does it put out?

u/Overall-Training2226 6d ago

Use CHATGPT

u/MiLeSmAn45 7d ago

It’s got the new logo on it, so I would guess it’s recent

u/MiLeSmAn45 7d ago

Shirt is tuff tho 🔥

u/cadenhead 7d ago

The logos at lower left and lower right are the original used from 1989 to 2000.
