Discover a unique piece of football history with our Oorang Indians Est 1922 Ohio Football Team T-shirt. This vintage-inspired tee commemorates one of the most unusual and short-lived teams in the early days of the National Football League.
The Oorang Indians, established in 1922, were a professional football team based in LaRue, Ohio. What made this team truly remarkable was that it was composed entirely of Native American players, with the legendary Jim Thorpe as its star and coach. Founded by Walter Lingo to promote his Oorang dog kennels, the team played for just two seasons in the NFL, touring the country as a traveling team.
Our t-shirt features a distressed, cracked logo on the front, capturing the essence of this historic team with an authentic vintage feel. The aged appearance of the design evokes the spirit of 1920s football, while the blank back keeps the focus on the iconic Oorang Indians imagery.
