Having grown up in the eighties, it's only natural that a good amount of our t-shirt designs are devoted to the decade that spawned the most outlandish fashion trends in the last century.

So, being a self-touted 80s specialist, I took the liberty of compiling what I think are the 10 Excellent (like, totally) 80s Tees in the Cafepress marketplace, the common thread being that all my picks display (1) wicked wit, (2) gnarly design, and (3) enough ambiguity so that you have to truly be a fan of the decade to get what the design is about (I think any hardcore fan wants that kind of exclusivity, right?).

Here they are, in no particular order:

1.
Rock the Kasbah Ringer T by Monkey Dan Tees. The shareef may not like it, but I sure do.

2.
Be Kind, Rewind Jr. Jersey T-Shirt by MOYA Apparel. Yep, THAT is how it's done!

3.
867-5309 Jr. Ringer T-Shirt by CultClassicTs. Don't be surprised if you get called "Jenny" a lot when wearing it.

4.
Just Let Your Soul Glo Light T-Shirt by CultClassicTs. An alternative to having your locks Jheri Curled.

5.
Robot 01 Ash Grey T-Shirt by Signs of Life. These moves might come in handy when C3PO asks you to be his prom date.

6.
1up Mushroom Baseball Jersey by GeekyTeez. Old school gamers used to covet this -- it's one heck of a magic mushroom.

7.
Eat Your Fruits Jr. Jersey T-Shirt by GeekyTeez. Oh, they're definitely good for you.

8.
Billie Jean Ringer T by Detour Design. LOL. Ask Jacko what this means.

9.
Yo! I'll Solve It Jr. Raglan by KA Designs. Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it!

10.
Break Dance Not Hearts Brown T-Shirt by KaptainMyke. Amen.

There are tons more awesome eighties t-shirts where these came from. If you think I overlooked a particular excellent (say that ala Bill & Ted now) design, let me know via the comments box below.
