We see lots of colorful and bright colored t-shirts in America that are being worn by males all around the country but did you know that for one time in history, the t-shirt was only available in the color white? But now, we see lots of colorful bright shirts which has lots of funky patterns printed on them.

The t-shirt was only worn as an underwear back in the nineteenth century. It was made popular by the Europeans. Then, during World War 1, American soldiers brought the t-shirt to the United States. By World War 2, the US Army and Navy has ordered that t-shirts be a standard issue, and soldiers wore them alone and not just an underwear during hotter climates. In the post World War 2 era, some movie stars like James Dean, Marlon Brando and John Wayne popularized the t-shirt. During the 1960s, tie dyeing their t-shirts were so in while black concert t-shirts were so popular in the 1970s.

During the 1980s and 1990s, the t-shirt industry saw the boom of slogan shirts like "I am with stupid", but since most of the slogans were considered ubiquitous, the new millennium welcomed the "personal branding" on t-shirts.

Because there are a lot of t-shirt websites and traditional fashion manufacturers around, people are now creating their very own individualized and personalized t-shirt trends. Bright colors and personal slogans and sayings now front our t-shirts. So, all you t-shirt fans out there should be happy to know that we see a brighter and promising future for the t-shirt industry.
