🕑 Added 2025-04-05 13:00:31 +0000 UTC Okay, this is a fun history lesson to kick us back off after Spring Break. I know it's weekend but who's counting?This is a vintage "shellback" print raglan, probably from the 1970s. The name "shellback" was given to freshly-initiated sailors after they had completed their first trip passing the equator. I know nowadays that seems trivial but back in the 1700s the journey was rough. In a weird turn of events, the ceremony to celebrate crossing it was also - kind of like a hazing but to promote morale.The ceremony was so widespread, in fact, that Charles Darwin, way back in the 1830s wrote about how the ship he was on (the HMS Beagle - the very same one he traveled around the world document evolution) would stop, hail Neptune, and the newly-minted shellbacks would be tied down, and dunked - sometimes into the ocean, on a board. I didn't have to do any of that to put this shirt on (or take it off?) 💋
