What began in 2020 with Dallas-based True Brvnd as a playful nod to a world “turned upside-down” has since spread through streetwear, college merch, and even official MLB headwear. Athletes and brands embraced it for the novelty and the conversation-starter effect—people literally do a double-take when they see your mascot flipped! Soon enough, promotional printers and fashion labels everywhere started offering upside-down embroidery and screen prints to help clients who want to stand out!
So if you’ve been wondering why these shirts are upside down—now you know. It’s not a mistake, it’s a statement.
