Channel the cosmic glam of Sir Elton John with this stellar 'Rocket Man' tee. The graphic is pure 70s pulp fantasy, reimagining the music legend as a space-faring, moth-winged warrior, perfectly capturing the song's blend of sci-fi melancholy and soaring ambition. It feels like a forgotten comic book cover from the peak of his theatrical powers, a piece of wearable art that's as over-the-top as the man himself. With the iconic lyric 'I think it's going to be a long long time' grounding the fantastical image, this shirt is a tribute to one of rock's most enduring anthems.
The Faded Vibes Sizing Chart
Now that you have your measurements, here’s how we translate the pit-to-pit number into the modern sizes you see on our product pages.
Find Your Fit
Vintage sizing is all over the place. A "Large" from the 80s fits way different than one from today, and years of washing and wearing can change a shirt's shape. That's why we ignore the original tag and hand-measure every single shirt we sell.
Want to be sure? The best way is to compare our measurements to a favorite t-shirt you already own. Our Vintage T-Shirt Sizing Guide shows you exactly how.
