YesterEars Vintage Apparel Collection

Shouldn't this be called Disney's Childhood Ruined Collection?

Am I the only one that hates ringer t-shirts? How hard is it to make a t-shirt that isn't see through?

Not hard at all unless you are trying to get a landed cost of under a dollar per unit..., Take a look at the tees from 'The Mountain' (not disney themed) US made and certified green manufacturing processes and they don't cost 30-40 bucks each...

Guess Disney got tired of Redbubble stealing their thunder.

Good grief.

How about keeping the actual attractions open?

Of course they sell well. That shows how popular they were.

Keeping attractions open is expensive, T-shirts are cheap and the head of P&R is a retail guy. Need I say more.

Even red bubble doesn't offer Gildan's highest quality t-shirt.

And so the eternal struggle in my mind begins.
What wins out, principles or nostalgia.
I couldn't love the Dreamfinder shirt more, yet it drives me insane to pay Disney money to celebrate an attraction that they ruined and seemingly continue to want to fall further and further away from. We'll see, I was able to resist the Horizons 30th anniversary merch, but I really don't know if I can resist that one.

I'd vote for principles Disney will stop doing this if people don't buy it. Look for vintage Dreamfinder stuff on the well known auction sites, Keeps you and the seller happy and Disney gets not a penny.

T-shirt quality has deteriorated in the last few years. My wardrobe is largely Disney and baseball t-shirts and I've really seen them come down significantly in quality. Major League Baseball sells shirts that shrink, height wise making many of their shirts pseudo belly shirts. Anyone that has met me personally knows that's not a pretty site.

I'm quite partial to ride T Shirts myself

Well that didn't take long....

Neither did Bob "the retail super hero" Chapek to start slapping GoTG stickers on existing rides and then re-print t-shirts of attractions made by people with more imagination and creativity in their pinky finger than his entire team of TDO bafoons

Personally I'm a fan of these newer, thinner T-shirts. They're more comfortable, and far cooler than the old, heavyweight ones that used to be more common.

I like these shirts and the idea of a collection focusing on older things that are no longer around. Fingers crossed a horizons one is in the works! I know they had one years ago but I will buy another one!

Here's hoping for Tapestry of Nations in a later wave. Getting the Dreamfinder shirt of course, but that's the other old Epcot thing I'd jump at.

I agree, I am a fan of the thinner, softer shirts as of late. I know you're probably getting less fabric for your money (if you're worried about that sort of thing), but they're much comfier than the heavy, stiffer and boxier shirts they used to sell.

The Dreamfinder and Figment shirt feels like WDW is rubbing salt in the wound.

Could have been worse if they took it another direction...

An actual shirt on the preview center. How popular was that ride anyway?

Was hoping the alien encounter shirt was better. That one is just awful. Would have preferred something with this art.
