Bootleg Bart and a Track Bike


eat my shorts man

I’m sure some of you are old enough to remember the bootleg Bart Simpson shirts that were being made in the early-nineties. As we were walking through Osaka (more on the trip to come), we came across this bootleg t-shirt shop. It was filled with all kinds of take-offs on American pop culture. This one in particular grabbed my attention. A Brooklyn chewing gum cycling hat, a track bike and a gorilla chain. Is this a bootleg GOrilla shirt? Definitely made me laugh when I saw it.

    I remember my brother had a Bart Simpson shirt that said “Crack Kills” and he was stuck in some fat lady’s butt crack lol. They also had a black bart named Black Bartman. Normally they sold them at liquor stores and stuff.
