San Jose Earthquakes Logo T-Shirt

This is a pre-owned, short-sleeved t-shirt featuring the logo for the San Jose Earthquakes, a professional soccer team. The shirt is a vibrant medium blue color, likely a cotton or cotton-blend fabric, and appears to be a standard crew-neck cut. The prominent graphic on the front is a stylized representation of the team's logo, centered on the chest. The logo displays a soccer ball in black and white, surrounded by a sun-like burst design in light grey or silver. Encircling this, a banner-like graphic frames the central image, with 'EARTHQUAKES' written vertically along the left side and 'SAN JOSE' written vertically along the right side, both in a bold, capitalized font. The lettering and details in the logo are in white, black, and light grey, creating a strong contrast against the blue background. The shirt exhibits some visible creasing and wrinkles, typical of a stored or worn garment, suggesting a used but generally good condition. There are no immediately apparent rips, tears, or major stains visible in the provided image. The fabric appears to have a slightly heathered texture, indicating it might not be 100% smooth cotton. A small tag, possibly the brand or size tag, is visible near the collar on the right side of the image, showing the distinctive 'Fruit of the Loom' logo which suggests a mass-produced item. Given the typical lifespan and design evolution of sports merchandise, this shirt likely dates from the 2000s or 2010s, corresponding to periods when this logo was in use. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for commercially produced apparel, with no exceptional or unique handmade qualities observed.
