Legend:
There is not a lot known about Captain Wynn. As stated in a British Admiralty report dated 18 July 1700, the HMS Poole, commanded by Captain John Cranby, engaged Wynn's ship off the Cape Verde islands. Cranby chased Wynn into a cove at Brava Island but, assisted by Portuguese soldiers, Wynn escaped Poole. Most historians agree that Cranby's account is the first mention of a Jolly Roger, which Cranby described as "a sable ensign with cross bones, a death's head, and an hour glass." Wynne is believed to be the first (or some sources contend one of the first) pirate to fly the now familiar form of the jolly roger. His flag, showing the distinctive skull and crossbones motif, was augmented with another common pirate symbol: an hourglass (meant to signify to his prey that only by timely surrender could they evade death).
Wicked soft tri-blend tee that won't show your nipple ring(s). Like all of our tees and hoodies, our designs are printed into the fabric - not pressed onto the fabric. That means you won't have to spend your summer walking around with a plastic poster glued to your chest.
- 50% polyester/25% combed ringspun cotton/25% rayon jersey
- Shirt will not prevent shrinkage while skinny-dipping. But like all of our tees and hoodies, you can use it to cover up.
- Sizes are standard men's/unisex sizes.
*Our green tees cost us significantly more to produce, as these are the same tees we use for our military customers. You'll understand once you feel it.
