Pay homage to a beloved piece of Arizona retail history with this premium-quality nostalgic tee. Smitty's Grocery, which opened its first store in Phoenix in 1964, became a cornerstone of Arizona's retail landscape during the state's booming growth period. Known for their distinctive storefront designs featuring southwestern motifs and their iconic sunset logo, Smitty's represented the perfect blend of modern convenience and desert charm.
The chain flourished throughout the 60s and 70s as Arizona's population exploded, with stores becoming neighborhood landmarks across the state. Smitty's continued as an independent grocer until the mid-1990s when changing retail dynamics led to its acquisition by Smith's Food and Drug, marking the end of a true Arizona original.
This t-shirt features a weathered, vintage-style front print that captures the warm, southwestern spirit of the original brand. The distressed effect gives it an authentic, lived-in look that collectors of regional Americana will appreciate.
