Vintage New York Giants Long-Sleeve T-Shirt

This is a vintage long-sleeve t-shirt associated with the New York Giants American football team. The shirt is predominantly dark navy blue, appearing somewhat faded, suggesting age and prior use. It features a crew neck design and long sleeves with cuff finishes. On the front chest, the word "GIANTS" is prominently displayed in an arched, distressed or textured white font with a red outline. Below this, in smaller text, it reads "FOOTBALL" and then an "NY" logo in red, with a green or light green outline, followed by "EST. 1925". This 'EST. 1925' marking signifies the team's establishment year. On the left sleeve, near the shoulder, there is a printed emblem featuring a football helmet in profile, with the word "GIANTS" above it and "NYG" below, all within a rectangular or square border. The fabric appears to be cotton or a cotton blend, indicative of typical t-shirt material, and exhibits a soft, worn texture. There are some visible lighter discolorations or faint stains on the lower front body of the shirt, suggesting wear and potentially some minor condition issues consistent with a vintage textile. The overall construction appears to be standard for a long-sleeve t-shirt, likely machine-sewn. The quality indicators point to a mass-produced garment, but its age and team affiliation contribute to its collectibility. While no specific maker's marks are clearly visible, a white tag is present at the interior neckline, though unreadable from the image. The faded appearance and specific graphic style suggest an item from the late 20th century, possibly 1990s or early 2000s, aligning with typical vintage sports apparel.
