This was my favourite MTB T-shirt from the early / mid 1990's. I wore it until it fell to bits.
Would love another one, but I don't think the people who made it (Paw Trading Co.) are about anymore.

First time I've ever seen one, in twenty six years of mountain biking.
And that's a pretty shonky photo! 😉

It's a photo of a photo which is why it's shonky. Although the original is not the best either.

No idea why I liked it Molgrips, just thought it was a cool t-shirt at the time. Apparently it scared my daughter!

Fat Willys are still available in their shop in Newquay, or was last time I was there. 2 years ago?

The 90s was all Oakley and Animal for me. Before Animal was spread far and wide.

Mine's hanging on a pinboard behind me. Now, if someone has access to a 3D printer, and would like to borrow it, or could work from a photo...
I used to have some of those Oakley stickers, still got a reflective one somewhere, and I still wear my original late 80's/early 90's Frogskins, too, got two pairs.
Never had a Fat Willy's tee shirt, though I did have a couple of No Fear ones before they went all high street. 8)

I saw one back in the day but never bought one, it looked a bit freaky but mainly because my cash was usually being spent on some purple component. 🙂

I've still got a cap like this

It's selling for $35 on Ebay, I think I paid about £20 for mine for a place near (maybe even *in*) Affleck's Palace back in the early 90s. Mine's in better condition than that too

I used to have a Mint Sauce one with a pair of dirty y-fronts on the front and a big scene ont back. Loved that t-shirt, it had a longer back so it was great for dossing on the bike in. It got ruined though, I was rolling round in a field with a girl from the year below me. Happy days.

I found a drawing I did of the Rox Bang! T-shirt up my parents loft last year. Loved that t-shirt too, never had one, didn't have the money.

Still wearing my Animal watch, though the stinky Velcro straps are long gone.
Mambo was the tshirt to have, I even made my own at school. Still have it 25 years later.
