THE LORE

The umlaut, per the founder, exists purely to look mean. The tusked mascot arrived in 1977, drawn by an artist who explained the inspiration as one naturally pissed-off bastard meeting another. And the anthem this shirt honors is wall-to-wall gambling metaphors written by a man who admitted he actually preferred the slot machines — you can't really sing about spinning fruit. Meowtorhead keeps all of it: the blackletter, the chains, the war-pig snarl, now with whiskers. But ACE OF SPAYS adds the one thing the loudest band in the world never had — a responsible-pet-ownership message. Fix your cat. It will still be the meanest thing in the neighborhood; it will simply have fewer descendants to embarrass. Born to lose, spayed to win.

Parody. Fan-made. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or remotely approved of by any actual band. NOT AVAILABLE IN ANY STORE.

THE FABRIC

We tested t-shirts for years. This one won.

We spent years testing t-shirts, washing them, wearing them into the ground, until we landed on this Comfort Colors blank. We print on this one on purpose. We wanted yours to feel like the band tee you grabbed at a merch stand five years ago: soft as hell, perfectly broken in, the one friends keep telling you looks great on you. The one you'd save in a fire.

Why it feels that way:

6.1 oz ring-spun cotton. A mall tee runs 4.2 to 5 oz. You feel the difference the second you pick it up.
Dyed after it's sewn. The whole finished shirt goes into the pigment bath, so the color lands a little differently on every piece. Yours is one of one, and it fades into a vintage look the more you wear it.
Broken-in on arrival. Enzyme-washed at the dye house, so it skips the cardboard-new phase and only gets softer with each wash.
A collar that holds the line. Snug ribbed neckline that stays snug. No sad, saggy necklines.
Relaxed, slightly boxy cut. The way band tees fit before slim-fit took over.
Pre-shrunk for real. All those dye-house washes already did the shrinking. Wash cold and the fit you bought is the fit you keep.

Care for the cursed: cold wash, inside out, low dry. The slow fade is not damage, it's the point.

Awesome shirt to wear to work

I work at an animal shelter and love all the shirts on this site. I bought the Meowtorhead shirt because the graphic looked so amazing and I was not disappointed. I cut the neck out to make it bigger (personal preference) and it is perfect. I have gotten so many compliments on this shirt from coworkers and everyone has asked where I got it. So you should be getting a lot of new orders now :D

Metal cat loves Meowtorhead bandanna

I bought the Meowtorhead bandanna for my office cat at the shelter where I work. He is a total badass and the bandanna looks amazing on him. He is a smaller cat, so it is a little bit big on him, but he doesn't seem to mind.

This is the 3rd shirt I have purchased. These shirts do grab peoples attention. I love the designs however I wish the shirts all had no tags. For the price of these shirts I feel they should be tag free and maybe softer material.

Excellent quality material, and kick-ass kitty!

Srsly, this is a kick-ass shirt. Got it for my finance as a christmas present and she wears it everywhere and everywhere we go people compliment how awesome it is. It's been washed a bunch of times and the quality remains really good too. Sizes run a bit small.
