MONTGOMERY RIVERFRONT UNIVERSITY™ T-Shirt or Sweatshirt

Est. August 5, 2023 | Montgomery Riverfront Brawl Collegiate-Inspired Apparel

Class is officially in session. 🎓🪑

Some history gets written in books. Some history gets written on the riverfront.

The Montgomery Riverfront University — Est. 2023 design turns one of the most unforgettable moments in modern Black American pop culture into a vintage collegiate-style keepsake. Inspired by the events of August 5, 2023, at the Montgomery Riverfront in Alabama, this design gives a knowing nod to the moment the internet collectively enrolled in a university nobody knew existed until that folding chair came out. 😂

Designed in the style of an old-school college crest, the distressed gold artwork features subtle imagery recognizable to anyone who knows the story—including the river, the swimmer, the hat and, of course, THE chair.

No explanation required.

If you know, you KNOW.

Perfect for cookouts, HBCU weekends, family reunions, festivals, casual Fridays, homecoming season, Black history conversations, or simply walking into the room and waiting for somebody to notice the crest.

✊🏾 THE DESIGN

MONTGOMERY
RIVERFRONT UNIVERSITY
EST. 2023

The artwork combines a vintage university aesthetic with a distressed finish that gives it that favorite-old-college-shirt feel from the very first wear.

Look a little closer at the crest and you'll find the story tucked inside.

It is subtle enough to look like collegiate apparel from across the room—and hilarious enough to spark an entirely different conversation once somebody realizes what they're looking at.

This is Black culture, Black humor and internet history wrapped up in one wearable inside joke.

Please note that color availability may vary slightly between the T-shirt and sweatshirt styles or by size.

Both garments feature a unisex fit.

For your usual relaxed/classic fit, order your normal unisex size.

For a more fitted look, consider sizing down.

For an intentionally oversized or slouchy look, consider sizing up one or two sizes.

Best practice: Compare the measurements in the size chart with a favorite shirt or sweatshirt you already own before ordering.

🧺 CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Turn the garment inside out before washing to help preserve the artwork.

Machine wash cold — max 30°C / 90°F. Use non-chlorine bleach only when necessary. Tumble dry on low heat. Do not dry clean. Avoid ironing directly over the printed design.

For the longest print life, avoid excessive heat during washing and drying.

✨ PRINT & COLOR INFORMATION

The intentionally distressed artwork is part of the design and gives the graphic its vintage, worn collegiate appearance.

Depending on garment color, the gold artwork may appear slightly warmer, brighter or more muted due to the underlying fabric and differences in screen displays.

White garments may also appear slightly off-white rather than stark optical white depending on fabric properties and production lighting.
