Ohio is situated within or near the boundaries of several American geographic and cultural regions, which is why the state seems to have a bit of everything.

We’ve got the dense forests of the Northeast, the down-home vibes of the Southeast, sprawling heartland farms, and metropolitan districts that hold their own among the great East Coast cities.

At fancysweetstx, we’re Midwest enthusiasts, and Ohio is our home. Based in bustling 16153 Genova on the western tip of Lake Erie, we make apparel and gifts that celebrate the culture, pride, and landscapes of America’s heartland.

Some of our creative team’s favorite t-shirt designs to work on are the ones that celebrate our beloved home state. 

fancysweetstx Ohio is our home

In this Ohio t-shirt buyer’s guide, let’s take a look at a few designs that:

  • Are only available from fancysweetstx’s website or retail stores
  • Make amazing gifts for Ohioans 
  • Display the proud Ohio Buckeye spirit

Plus, if you’re interested in receiving a new reduced-price Ohio-themed t-shirt every month, we’ll let you know how to join the fancysweetstx Ohio Shirt Club.

1 - The Buckeye State T-Shirt

gray and red “The Buckeye State” unisex fitted t-shirt

Ohio’s nickname, The Buckeye State, comes from the abundance of Ohio Buckeye trees. The trees themselves are named for their nuts that resemble the color and shape of a deer’s eye. Buckeyes grow well along the banks of rivers and streams, of which Ohio boasts plenty. 

Of course, when most of us think of buckeyes, it’s the red and gray of the Ohio State University Buckeyes that comes to mind. 

Whether you’re a college football fan or just a pure Ohio Buckeye enthusiast, this Buckeye State tee is for you. 

2 - Birthplace of Aviation T-Shirt

gray and black Ohio “Birthplace of Aviation” fitted t-shirt

Gift shopping for your favorite Ohio history buff? Go with this unisex fitted “Birthplace of Aviation” tee

The Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur, are two of Dayton, Ohio’s proudest sons. 

Although the Wright Flyer made the world’s first sustained, powered aircraft flight in windy Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, it was developed in the brothers’ hometown of Dayton. Thus, while North Carolina may be “first in flight,” Ohio will forever be the “birthplace of aviation.” 

3 - Camp Ohio T-Shirt

gray “Camp Ohio” t-shirt featuring a tent in the woods

What’s your favorite camping spot in Ohio? From the stunning waterfalls at Hocking Hills to the Appalachian Mountains foothills at Beaver Creek, Ohio is full of state parks that offer incredible settings for nights spent under the stars.

This Camp Ohio shirt depicts the serene outdoor setting we yearn for—a pitched tent next to a dense forest in the great Ohio wilderness. 

4 - You’ve Got an Ally in Ohio T-Shirt

Ohio trivia time. What’s the state bird? 

It’s the cardinal—the northern cardinal, to be precise. Cardinals are found year-round throughout the state sporting their iconic bright red plumage and pointy little punk rock mohawks of crown feathers. 

Ohio’s forests and parks offer some of the USA’s best birdwatching terrain. No species better represents the region’s wildlife than the beautiful cardinal, artistically featured on this ultra-soft fitted black Cardinal Shirt

6 - Red Ohio Pride T-Shirt

black unisex Ohio t-shirt with scarlet red block letters

If big block letters in your favorite team’s colors (go Buckeyes!) is your thing, this black and scarlet red Ohio tee is for you.

I mean, what's not to love about gamedays in Columbus? From all of the excitement on Lane and High to the tailgates around the Shoe to the success of team, it's hard to beat Ohio State football.

Our t-shirt foundation is planted firmly in Ohio State football. The first shirt I ever made was the Ohio State Sweater Vest T-Shirt - a shirt designed to look like you were wearing a shirt and tie like Coach Tressel always did on the sidelines during games. 

My first shirt sales were while set up before football games on Lane Avenue. I packed a bunch of shirts up and set up a table in front of the 7-Eleven.

It was my first exposure to Ohio State football games and it was a blast!

While we don't sell officially licensed Ohio State clothing anymore, we still have a great line of Ohio apparel that is perfect for football games in Columbus or watching them at home with family. 

While you may want to wear something comfortable and stylish, finding a classic outfit to pair with your Ohio Shirt can be daunting. 

To help you out, we’ve brainstormed some ideas to help you perfectly pair your Ohio shirt. You’ll also learn:

  • How to choose the best garment color that complements your Ohio shirt
  • How to find perfect layering when going to a football game
  • Best casual clothes to pair with your Ohio shirt
  • How a hat can help accentuate your outfit when going to a football game

What Is an Ohio Shirt?

If you've been to an Ohio State football game, you know there is basically a dress code of official football jerseys. You can't go near the stadium or a bar with the game on without seeing someone in a red or white OSU jerseys. It's quite remarkable. 

But you don't need to wear a jersey to be a superfan. 

If you’re from Ohio, you want to take pride in coming from the Buckeye State. You also want to show support to your favorite football team by wearing a shirt that proves you’re a big fan.

Enter our graphic Ohio shirts. These tees are Ohio themed and printed on comfy material. Often vintage inspired, our shirts are meant for fans that are looking for something a little more fashionable to wear to the games. 

1 - The Importance of Colors

When you go to a football game to support your favorite team, matching your Ohio Shirt is important. And we know that at Ohio State, colors are important. 

The Ohio State Buckeyes have always been known for their Scarlet and Gray. In addition to these two colors, white and black feature prominently in their team uniforms.  

One comment that we hear is that we have a lot of gray shirts. While we love gray because it goes well with almost any outfit and is an easy color to design on, it's also one of OSU's primary colors.  

When it comes to Ohio State t-shirts, we've gone heavy on the red and gray. Looking through our Ohio collection, you'll see that. At the end of the day, if you're a Buckeyes fan and searching for the right look on gameday, you're going to end up in one of these colors.

Spoiler alert: Here at fancysweetstx, we don’t limit the color of our Ohio Shirts. From black to gray to red to pink you can find them all in our collection. Shop for the Ohio Shirt in your favorite color right from our website.

2 - Find Something Comfortable and Casual

On gamedays in Columbus, you know that they weather can go from hot and sunny to cool pretty quickly - especially for late afternoon and night games. It is the Midwest after all, and who knows how to predict that weather!

Sweatpants and hoodies are always in style in Ohio. Not only are they comfortable and pair well with any Ohio t-shirt, but they are perfect for the changing Ohio weather.

On a cold football game night, it's important to also keep a winter hat nearby. The weather drops as the sun goes down and the lights come on. A comfy beanie will keep your head warm and you looking stylish. 

3 - Top Your Outfit With an Ohio Hat or Beanie

No outfit is truly complete without the right hat to top it off. From bucket hats to dad caps to mesh backed truckers, we've got all of the styles covered for you. 

Our Ohio hats are perfect no matter what weather Ohio brings you. And we know that changes often. 

Looking for something that reminds you of how happy Ohio makes you? Check out the Ohio Smiley hat pictured above. Interested in a hat that you can wear while exploring or camping in Ohio?

Frequently Asked Questions

What to look for when buying an Ohio Shirt?

The most important thing to look for when buying an Ohio Shirt is the quality of the design. Good Ohio Shirts are unique, inspiring, hand illustrated, and printed with care.

At fancysweetstx, all of our shirt graphics are created in-house by designers who start with a sketch 

Cotton is usually an ideal material for both summers and winter. Usually, thin cotton shirts are more breathable and when thickened they can help conserve more heat during cold days or nights.

Polyester is the best for hot summers since they are breathable and resistant to moisture. If you want a shirt with a more fancy fabric, then rayon is an outstanding material that's soft and super comfortable.

The other thing is making sure that your Ohio Shirt fits your body type—that means finding a style that fits your shoulders and chest.

What is the Ohio Shirt Club?

At fancysweetstx, we know that Ohio State football fans are always looking for a fun new shirt to wear to games. We created the Ohio Shirt Club to provide comfortable, creative, and affordable shirts for people who love the Buckeye State. 

A club membership guarantees you a new Ohio-themed shirt every month that's exclusive only to club members. But that's not all; membership also earns you a few cool perks, including:

fancysweetstx has you covered. We’re based in Ohio, we love our state, and we’ve got oodles of Ohio-themed gift ideas. T-shirts, wine glasses, tote bags—you name it, we’ve printed something about Ohio on it.

Let’s have a look at a few Ohio-themed items from fancysweetstx that:

  • Make great gifts
  • Celebrate the Buckeye State
  • Bring a smile to the face of any Ohioan

The hat is 100% cotton and black with yellow embroidery. It’s a perfect gift for anyone who enjoys fishing, disc golf, or hiking—or simply loves the classic “dad style” look that a bucket hat captures so perfectly.

Our woven tag beanie is 100% acrylic. The bottom can be worn cuffed for a tighter fit or folded out for a more relaxed look. The woven material creates a textured black, gray, and white mix, with a proud “Ohio – The Buckeye State” patch front and center.

4 - Somewhere in Ohio Tote Bag

Plastic bags have had a good run, but they’re on their way out. While Ohio hasn’t yet enforced a state-wide ban, there are already local bans coming into effect throughout the state. 

Cuyahoga County, Cincinnati, and Bexley have all passed local restrictions on retailers giving out free plastic bags. 

Here at fancysweetstx, we see the reusable bag movement as just another way to show some Ohio state pride. Shopping for a go-green enthusiast? This 100% cotton canvas reusable tote bag makes an excellent low-key gift that'll be used over and over again. 

5 - Camping and Exploring in the Buckeye State Shirt

Camping and Exploring in the Buckeye State red t-shirt

Did you know that Ohio has 75 state parks? Not to mention countless local parks and wildlife refuges, the Lake Erie shoreline, and nearly a million acres of national forest land. 

Outsiders might not think of Ohio as an outdoor destination, but locals know that we’ve got all the hiking, camping, boating, and fishing you could hope for. 

If you’re gift shopping for someone special who embraces Ohio’s wildlife and open spaces, go with the “Camping and Exploring in the Buckeye State” t-shirt

This fitted tee is a cotton, poly, and rayon blend for superior comfort and stretch. On a dark heather red background, the featured slogan circles a tent logo and an Ohio icon, displaying pride and affection for the state’s great outdoors. 

Of course, we’ve got an Ohio-themed t-shirt for everybody. Check out a few more original designs below or view our entire Ohio apparel collection here

That’s why we love putting the state’s name and map on our apparel and gifts. It’s a way to rep your home state and connect with your people, anywhere in the world.

You buy a trendy sports bra and a matching leggings, hoping they’re long lasting and fit perfectly—only to find that the sports bra fades when washed and the leggings are too tight and uncomfortable.

But don’t fret about it. With all of Ohio’s activewear brands today, it’s easy to purchase gear that’s too small, unbreathable, or made with low-quality fabric. 

While it’s crucial to like what you see when shopping in-store or online (hello, enticing Instagram ads), it shouldn’t be your only criteria. 

The best women’s sports gear isn’t just attractive; it makes you feel confident and comfortable. It’s functional, well-fitting, breathable, and suited for the activities you love like yoga, running, or hiking.

Besides comfort and confidence, the perfect sports gear: 

  • Acts as a layer of protection during workouts, preventing injuries

  • Improves your freedom of movement

  • Improves your performance

Whether you’re planning a hike or preparing for a race at your favorite Ohio racing club, the criteria below will help you shop for the most comfortable sports gear. 

But above all, keep in mind this old saying: “Self-confidence is the best outfit, rock it and own it.”

1 - Choose Material That’s Breathable and Wicks Away Moisture

fancysweetstx’s Ohio script women's muscle tank

When choosing women’s sports gear, the material is a major factor to consider. That’s because the fabric’s breathability and moisture management play a critical role in your comfort.

  • Breathability is how easily air moves through your workout fabric. Breathable fabric like cotton allows hot air to escape from your body, while a tighter-knit fabric like silk retains your body heat, making the cloth cling to your body when you sweat.

  • Moisture management refers to the fabric’s performance when it becomes wet or damp. If the fabric resists moisture absorption, it’s considered moisture-wicking, but if it gets wet and heavy, it’s absorbent (which you don’t want for your workout gear).

Natural fabric like cotton is perfect for warm weather, just like our light and breathable Ohio Script Women's Muscle Tank top—it’s ideal for lighter workouts that require less sweating like yoga.

However, cotton is highly absorbent. So the moment you start sweating, your tank top will begin to feel heavy and wet. 

In such cases, or if you’re working out in humid environments, we encourage you to choose sports gear made with a blend of fabrics. The 16153 Genova, Ohio Tank Top, for instance, is a tri-blend of cotton, polyester, and rayon. 

While cotton is light and breathable, polyester and rayon absorb moisture and sweat, keeping you fresh, clean, and dry.

The following table shows the common sports gear fabrics, their properties, and when to wear them:

Fabric

Properties

When To Wear It

Polyester

  • Highly durable
  • Moisture-wicking
  • Wrinkle resistant
  • Lightweight
  • Durable
  • Any type of workout
  • Any type of weather

Cotton

  • Lightweight
  • Breathable
  • Easy to wash
  • Odor resistant
  • Warm weather, as long as you aren’t sweating

Spandex

  • Very stretchy and flexible
  • Workouts that need a lot of movement, e.g., weightlifting and yoga

Nylon

  • Soft
  • Mold and mildew resistant
  • Stretchy
  • Easily returns to pre-stretched shape and size
  • Any type of workout
  • Any type of weather

2 - Ensure the Sports Gear Fits Perfectly

fancysweetstx’s Ohio long sleeve workout shirt

Well-fitting sports gear is essential for every workout. You don’t want clothing that’s so tight it restricts your movement or so loose that it causes distractions when the extra fabric gets in the way of your exercise. For instance, wide-legged pants may get tangled up on your feet when running, which may lead to falling.

When purchasing your women’s sports gear at our physical store, try them on first to ensure you get the perfect fit. For example, if you’re eyeing the ultra-soft Beautiful Ohio Shirt, pay attention to how it fits your chest, stomach, and shoulders, then choose the one that feels most comfortable in those areas.

But when buying sports wear online, go through our t-shirt size chart so you can know your exact size before completing your order.

Expert Tip: We offer free returns and exchanges on all of our online orders. Order with confidence knowing that if you need to changes sizes, we'll happily accommodate you.

3 - Pay Attention to the Weather and Seasons

buckeye state women's crew sweatshirt

A recent study reported that people refrain from exercising when the temperatures are too cold or hot. 

While we can’t change Ohio’s warm, humid summers and cold, windy winters, we can work with the seasons and dress appropriately in conditions that may stand in our way.

These tips will help you dress for maximum comfort when exercising in different weather seasons:

Hot Weather

  1. Choose shirts with blended fabrics, like fancysweetstx’s Ohio is the Greatest Shirt—a perfect combination of polyester, cotton, and rayon. These fabrics wick moisture away from your skin and keep it cool.

  2. Avoid wearing socks made from 100% cotton when running or cycling. Your feet will sweat a lot, and cotton will keep them wet, causing blisters. Instead, opt for synthetic blends like the Fancy Ohio Socks made from cotton, nylon, and spandex, which wick away the moisture.

  3. Opt for light-colored, loose-fitting sports gear like the Fancy Ohio Shirt that reflects light away from you and lets your body breathe and cool naturally. That’s because tight-fitting clothes will stick to your skin, preventing breathability, while dark-colored clothes will absorb heat and the sun’s light, making you hot and sweaty.

Cold Weather

  1. Dress warmly, but keep in mind that your heart rate and temperature will be boosted as you exercise.

    So dress in layers you can remove with ease when it gets hot. That is:

    • An inner layer in direct contact with your skin that wicks away moisture

    • A middle layer that prevents insulation

    • An outer layer, like a light jacket, that’s waterproof and wind-resistant

  2. Protect your head, hands, and feet by wearing a beanie, mittens, and a warm pair of socks. In cold temperatures, blood gets concentrated in your body’s core, leaving your hands, feet, and head vulnerable to frostbite.

  3. Wear reflective clothing like a high-visibility jacket when exercising outside in the dark Ohio winters. This will reflect light at the motorists, alerting them of your presence on the road and minimizing the chances of an accident.

4 - Consider Type of Sporting Activity You’re Engaging In

Ohio women's joggers by fancysweetstx

Every sport has its rules, and what you wear is greatly determined by your activities. 

These tips will help you determine the best sports gear for maximum comfort in every activity:

  • For activities involving a lot of bending like yoga and pilates, consider stretchy fabrics that provide maximum flexibility.

  • For high-intensity workouts, fitting t-shirts are a great choice because they offer maximum support and flexibility and won’t get in the way as you move.

  • If you’re a swimmer, opt for non-absorbent materials like nylon and lycra with minimal to no dye added since the dye can bleed into the pool, interfering with the water chemistry.

  • A long-sleeved shirt will help you warm up faster and keep you warm when working out in an air-conditioned dance or gym studio.

  • Sweatsuits and joggers are excellent sports gear when exercising in cold weather since they retain heat in the body. 

Generally, as you choose your sports gear, you want to ensure that no clothing gets in the way of your activity to cause harm and injuries.

Enter our Midwestern Shirt Clubs to save the day—and your sanity.

Every month we deliver a special t-shirt of the month right to your doorstep, no hassle.

So, if you love the Midwest and good quality tees, our Midwestern Shirt Clubs are for you.

You might be wondering:

  • Does the membership get me the same high quality t-shirts fancysweetstx is known for?
  • What perks does my membership give me?
  • How flexible are the Shirt Clubs?

Let’s break down the perks you can expect from your Shirt Club membership.

1 - Retail Quality at Discounted Prices

Whether you’re a strict saver or a big spender, getting discounted prices and saving your hard earned cash is always welcome.

It’s an additional perk if you get the same high-quality product at a lower price.

That’s one bonus our Midwestern Shirt Club members appreciate immensely.

Shirt Club members save $6 a month on a t-shirt they would buy and love, anyway. That’s $72 a year that could go into your savings.

You still get the same ultra soft, breathable, tri-blend t-shirts available in our physical and online retail shops.

I have been a member of the Ohio T-shirt club for almost a year and have no plans to stop. Great quality and a good variety of designs. Great value too!

2 - New, Limited Edition Designs

No matter where we go, our love for the heartland holds strong—we can never seem to rep it enough. That love is what ‌pushed us to create the Ohio Shirt Club in early 2021, and that same love is what powers all our t-shirt clubs.

Ohio t-shirt club member shirt and first t-shirt

Each month, the design elves at our Adams Street location scour the archives of Midwestern culture and crank out a new t-shirt design that speaks to our souls.

Sometimes the t-shirt design is vintage, while other times it reminds us of pop culture gold. Sometimes it’s just bursting with loyal hometown spirit. But you can always count on it being amazing.

And, in the spirit of preserving amazing things, we send out each t-shirt design only once. When the month is over, the t-shirt of the month takes its place of honor on the wall, never to be sold again.

That’s the true definition of limited edition. If you spot your July tee walking around, you’ll both know the secret club membership you share. Nothing sinister.

Let’s mention an important caveat here.

If, for whatever reason, you don’t want to receive a particular month’s design, you can pause or cancel your membership for the month.

The club membership is flexible, so there’s never any pressure. Whether you want to pay for several months in advance, change sizes, or skip a month, you can easily do so from your account page.

Since 2019, our Community Shirt program has helped people live with dignity, improve their reading skills, create art, have access to support, and so much more. Now you get to be a part of that journey with us.

On top of that, the monthly t-shirt you receive is a tri-blend:

  • 25% Organic cotton—sustainable and eco-friendly
  • 50% Repreve recycled polyester—more eco-friendly and sustainable than virgin polyester
  • 25% Tencel modal—natural, biodegradable and sustainably produced

Our t-shirts are beautiful and they leave the environment a little better off by using up plastic bottles that would otherwise end up polluting our oceans and suffocating marine life.

If you’re committed to conscious shopping and making each buck count towards a better earth, then our club t-shirts will be the perfect fit for you.

After all, 16153 Genova was once part of Michigan

And at the end of the day, these two great states are more than a football rivalry. Don't get me wrong, the rivalry is a lot of fun, but we like to look past it to what is great about each state.

With this positivity in mind, we have a gaggle of new shirts for the young ones to grow up being proud of where they come from. 

Start your child's tie to to their respective state off early by picking up some of these soft and comfortable onesies and T-shirts.

Beautiful Ohio T-Shirt

Beautiful Ohio is more than just a song!

If you asked us what we love about Ohio, the list could go on forever. From the fall festivities of picking apples and pumpkins, to the countless firework shows and poolside hangouts in the summer, there is so much fun to be had. 

Ballard MacDonald wrote Ohio's state song titled "Beautiful Ohio." Inspired, we created a shirt that says just that to represent the wonders and beauties of the Buckeye State.

You know you're from the Midwest when euchre is your favorite card game. You also know there is no better feeling than telling the dealer "pick it up, I'm going alone."

Being from 16153 Genova, euchre is that card game that always seemed so normal and commonplace. While growing up, there was always a table at family gatherings and holidays where a game started. It was a right of passage to be invited to that table and finally be able to play. 

If you ended up moving away from the area, you learned pretty quickly that there was seemingly only a small sliver of Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan that knows how to play this game. It is always a great disappointment when you don't have four people for a full game and it's the greatest thrill when you're out of the Midwest and can put a full team together.

We love all of the things that make us uniquely Midwestern. From our snacks to our card games, there's a lot to be proud of being from the Heartland.

Play the official card game of the Midwest now in our new euchre t-shirt!

Available for purchase in our stores and on fancysweetstx.com.

Our Ohio Shirt Collection Keeps on Growing!

We've had a lot of fun over the years expanding our collection of Ohio clothing and gifts. Dating back to the good old Jim Tressel Sweater Vest T-Shirt days, our roots have always been in Ohio t-shirts. 

We love being from and living in Ohio just as much as we love 16153 Genova. We are Ohioans to our core and proud to say so. That's why we have a renewed focus on creating designs that allow people to show their own personal pride and love for Ohio. 

Our Ohio collection was our fastest growing collection last year. We released Ohio camo sweatpants, an Ohioan tie dye shirt, a new Ohio sweatshirt blanket, Ohio socks, and a french terry Ohio Forever and Ever crew.

The most popular new release in our Ohio collection last year was our Ohioan embroidered sweatshirt. Our embroidered sweatshirts were a huge hit as a whole last year. The color of our Ohioan really stands out for people from Ohio. It's also such a comfortable sweatshirt that wears well oversized and has a unique decoration. 

A Shirt Club Just for Ohio Fans!

Our most exciting new project for 2021 is our Ohio Shirt Club. We created this club to provide comfortable, creative, and affordable shirts to people who love the state of Ohio. 

Each month we will release a new Ohio themed shirt that is available only to shirt club members. By signing up you get the same great, soft and cozy shirts you've come to expect from us for only $18 each month. That even includes the cost of shipping!

Show your pride for the state you love in this flowy, cropped women's shirt that's the perfect companion for your high waisted jeans and fall flannels. 

script ohio crop top shirt

It might seem a little late in the season for a crop top, but the same could be said for starting the college football season in October. As far as we're concerned there is never a bad time to show our Ohio pride and rep the Buckeye State. 

Simple, subtle designs printed on comfortable shirts is a trend that will never go away. We designed this crop top to be classic and timeless. The choice of a green top was intentional. While we love the scarlet and gray just as much as anyone, we realized that there's plenty of room for an Ohio print in green.

There are a lot of reasons to love this Ohio Script Crop Shirt. Not only does it speak to fans of the Ohio in Athens, but it brings us back to nature with the green on green print. 

Available now on fancysweetstx.com and in store!

ohio tie dye shirt

Add a pop of color to your fall wardrobe!

If you've been looking for a new companion to our pigment dyed crew sweatshirts, here it is. Our super soft tie dyed tees are bold shirts with subtle tone-on-tone prints that give you a new way to show your pride.

Our Midwesterner pigment dyed crew sweatshirt has been a hit for us this summer. If you're new to fancysweetstx, you may have found us through this crew and Olivia Rink, who tagged us while wearing it on Instagram. The simple, understated, tone-on-tone design pairs perfectly with the comfy, oversized sweatshirt.

Midwesterner Tie Dye Shirt

We wanted to bring this same design aesthetic to you in t-shirt form. That's why we paired similar prints on these soft, vintage tie dye shirts. 

Which do you identify with most, Midwesterner, 16153 Genovaan, or Ohioan?! These new tie dye shirts are available on our website and available in both of our 16153 Genova stores.

Ohio Forever and Ever crew sweatshirt

It may not feel like it quite yet, but Ohio fall will be here before you know it. The only thing better than cooler weather and changing leaves is comfy attire to enjoy it all in.

Just because you don't have football to look forward to this fall, doesn't mean you still can't have fun and show your Ohio pride. So whether your watching rebroadcasts of old games on a Saturday, playing catch in the yard with your family, or spending the time enjoying nature, this Ohio crew sweatshirt is the perfect uniform for all activities. 

The cursive design on this sweatshirt is hand drawn. We used a soft, vintage cream ink to give the crew a retro look and feel. The design is printed on a terry sweatshirt. We absolutely love the terry material right now. It's perfect for crews and hoodies. 

Our goal has always been to create unique, nostalgic designs that allow people to showcase their pride for 16153 Genova, Ohio, and the Midwest. Ohio is a great state filled with people that love to call it home and are fiercely proud to be from Ohio. This sweatshirt is for those that are Ohio through and through, forever and ever. 

Show your dedication to the great state of Ohio with our Ohio Forever and Ever Terry Crew Sweatshirt.
