COTTON RINGER TEE

VINTAGE LOOK, MODERN FEEL

This ringer tee from Wythe features a blank front and a faded out print on back in a classic style that everyone can appreciate.

During World War I, almost every aviator was trained using Curtiss JN-4 "Jenny" biplanes. Once the war ended, the US government began selling off the surplus planes for fractions of what they cost. Many of these airmen were able to purchase planes for themselves, especially considering they knew these planes inside and out. When they weren't flying modified versions for cropdusting, the 1920s gave way to "Barnstorming" which was when these pilots would fly over rural farm towns to gather a crowd, while dropping flyers promoting their aerial acrobatic shows. These acrobatic shows would take place at a farmer's barn, hence the name "Barnstorm." 

Wythe has created a fictional farm league team name called the Barnstormers, as a nod to both the rural midwest's local baseball teams, as well as the Barnstorming phenomenon of the 20s.
