History

The T-shirt originated in the early 20th century as an undergarment worn by soldiers. It became standard issue in the U.S. Navy around 1913, worn under uniforms. After World War II, returning soldiers began wearing T-shirts as casual outerwear, which helped popularize them in civilian life.
In the 1950s, actors like Marlon Brando and James Dean wore T-shirts in films, turning them into symbols of youth rebellion and coolness. Since then, the T-shirt has evolved into a global fashion staple, used for self-expression, advertising, art, and activism.
Today, T-shirts are worn by people of all ages and cultures, and they come in countless designs, colors, and styles.
