Before America Entered the War, They Were Already Flying.
In 1916, a band of American volunteers crossed the Atlantic and took to the skies under the French tricolor — long before the U.S. officially entered the Great War. The Lafayette Escadrille flew Nieuports over the Western Front, trading comfort for conviction. This tribute tee carries that spirit: quiet courage, transatlantic resolve, and the unmistakable silhouette of a pilot climbing into dawn.
The all-over print is rendered on 100% polyester that holds its shape and color through repeated wear — built for the history enthusiast who treats their wardrobe like a collection. Wear it to air shows, lecture halls, museum visits, or anywhere a conversation about WWI aviation is worth starting.
