PRINTED IN & SHIPPED FROM USA
Our long sleeve T-shirts feature heavyweight 100% cotton with a solid, structured feel that’s built for warmth, comfort, and long-lasting wear.
Mission's Grapefruiters took the field in 1926, carrying the name of the crop that built the Rio Grande Valley. Playing Class D ball in the Gulf Coast League, they represented a small Texas town where citrus farming and baseball were twin sources of pride. Some teams are remembered not for championships, but for belonging wholly to a place. Part of our Defunct Baseball collection, inspired by the vintage Minor League teams of yesteryear.
