Sweet tees: Firefighter T-shirts that don’t make us cringe

Unlike some department tees out there, you can wear these shirts with pride

NocringT.png

A classic T-shirt is a fashion staple in the U.S. – one that combines comfort, minimalism and, more often than not, a graphic image. T-shirts are a cheat sheet that can inform others of your favorite sports teams, bands, brands and passions, so why not add your favorite profession to this list? Below is a collection of firefighter T-shirts that you can wear with pride, and a couple that your kiddos can show off as well.

Thin red line T-shirt

Honor fallen firefighters with this shirt that features the symbolic Red Line flag on the back alongside a smaller Maltese Cross symbol on the left chest. Available in either black or navy blue in sizes small to 3XL.

Volunteer firefighter T-shirt

If you are one of the hundreds of thousands of volunteer firefighters who sacrifice precious hours to help protect your community – but you don’t have the department-issued shirt to show it – then pick up this tee and wear it with pride. The navy shirt is pre-shrunk, 100% cotton, and available in sizes ranging from small to 5XL.

Love for firefighters

This heart-themed shirt also features the thin red line motif. This shirt is available in various colors and size ranges that include men’s big and tall and women’s plus.

Our favorite things

A fire boot, Maltese Cross, two axes and firehose spell out “love” on this creative T-shirt. 20 color options are available in men’s, women’s, men’s big and tall, women’s plus and youth sizes.

Fire-rescue T-shirt

Sometimes basic is best, and this 100% cotton black fire-rescue T-shirt gets the point across with a classic graphic that’s complemented by a small flag on the right sleeve and the Maltese Cross on the left breast. Size options range from small to 3XL.

For the ladies

Give it up for the female firefighters in the firehouse! There are 23 different color options in sizes that include men’s, women’s, men’s big and tall, women’s plus, and youth.
