Weakfish (Spotted Seatrout, Speckled Trout) - Inspired by the 1889 Allen & Ginter “Fish from American Waters” Trade Cards

If your ideal weekend involves disappearing into some forgotten bend of river with a rod, a sandwich, and zero cell service, this shirt already understands you. Designed from the original 1889 “Fish from American Waters” trade cards — back when art was hand-painted, cigarettes were marketed with wildlife illustrations, and nobody argued online about lure color — this tee brings a slice of American fishing history right to your closet.

The artwork is lifted straight from Allen & Ginter’s iconic 50-card series, so you’re essentially wearing a museum piece… except a whole lot softer and much more socially acceptable than showing up shirtless with a framed fish print. Whether you geek out over vintage angling art or just like looking like the kind of guy who knows a good riffle from a bad knot, this one just fits.

Comfort Meets Old-School Charm
Lightweight, soft, and built for those long, sweaty summer days on the water. Perfect for early-morning launches, late-evening casts, and all the hours you refuse to log indoors. The fit is relaxed enough for casting and classy enough for the post-river burger stop.

A Note on Color Variations
Every tee prints slightly differently — kind of like how every fish looks bigger when you’re the one telling the story.

Sustainability
Printed on demand — fewer wasted casts, fewer wasted shirts.

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
