Route 66 Clothes
Wear Clothing Depicting The Mother Road

Can you imagine a route 66 pub in Scotland, a route 66 sports bar in London England or a route 66 unisex fashion clothing store in Ireland? How about a route 66 US vintage clothing store in Melbourne, Australia?

Seems like the world has not only embraced America’s most famous and beloved highway, they are simply crazy for the mother road. Route 66 is an American legend and will always be a very important part of our great American culture.

For anyone who has ever traveled old route 66 or longs to travel the mother road or even better, plans to travel west along America’s main street sometime soon, Crossroads Sign Company offers beautiful route 66 clothing including shield sign t-shirts and ball caps.

Crossroads Exclusive Route 66 Clothes

Our route 66 clothes are designed to be educational about the mother road. We focus on the road itself, celebrating the historic old route 66 highway with printed t-shirts and ball caps. The prints on our route 66 clothes may depict a vintage 1929 map of old route 66 or the memorable shield sign that was the signature of the state highway signs.

route 66Get your kicks with a route 66 map & shield t-shirt that celebrates the role of old route 66 in song and television. The route 66 road map on this clothing shows the location of only those towns named in Bobby Troup's 1946 song "Get your kicks on route 66".

map of route 66Here’s a wonderful route 66 T with an old 1929 scaled map reproduction showing all the towns along the mother road. It is interesting to note that in 1929 route 66 actually went through Santa Fe, New Mexico. However, since old route 66 was continually being realigned and improved the total mileage of the mother road became less and Santa Fe was sacrificed along the way.

historical route 66The "historical US 66" shield design of this route 66 t-shirt celebrates the historic nature that "The Mother Road" has played in American history.

In his famous Route 66 song Bobby Troup's lyrics encouraged us to "get your kicks on route 66". The mother road stretched from Chicago to L.A.
route 66 californiaGoing from shore to shore, route 66 began at the intersection of Michigan Avenue (which paralled the shore of Lake Micigan) and Jackson Avenue, and terminated at the Santa Monica pier in Santa Monica, California. Where route 66 became the “road to opportunity” California became the destination of hundreds of thousands during the great migration of the depression era. This California US route 66 t-shirt commemorates our most populace state.

route 66 glow in the dark tshirtThis is an awesome glow-in-the-dark route 66 t-shirt that emulates the old “cats eye” reflectors used on signs circa the 1950's and 60's. The movie “Cars” from Pixar Studios uses a route 66 sign much like this one, except they added the word route, which never really was on any highway marker sign for any of our US state highways.

route 66 tshirtFor all the times I have traveled both old route 66 (in my youth) and historic route 66 (in my later years), this seen-it-all-done-it-all t-shirt design seems to sum it up best.

All route 66 t-shirts are pre-shrunk Hanes Beefy Tees, which are the hallmark in the industry. Ask any screen printer and they will tell you that 100% heavyweight cotton shows color better, holds its shape longer and retains a printed design much longer. Cotton is also a very breathable fabric.
