2000’s Takehiko Inoue Slam Dunk Shohoku White T-Shirt

Takehiko Inoue's Slam Dunk sold more than 170 million volumes across its Weekly Shōnen Jump run (1990–1996) and is singly credited for the Japanese basketball boom that tripled high-school registration numbers across the back half of the decade — a cultural footprint that the 2022 animated feature The First Slam Dunk has since re-amplified for a new generation of international viewers. The series follows red-haired delinquent Hanamichi Sakuragi as he joins Shohoku High's basketball team to impress a girl and discovers he has genuine talent. This heavyweight white cotton tee runs a Shohoku-roster graphic across the chest in Inoue's identifiable line-drawing vocabulary, pulling the team into the post-manga editorial register that Inoue's later Pepita exhibition and First Slam Dunk marketing work would make internationally recognized.
