Spreadshirt presents: cool designs that rock, Elvis style!

Rock ‘n‘ Roll isn’t just a music trend from the 1950s and 60s. The term itself has become the epitome of a way of life. Some may say “he was just a guy with a quiff wearing a leather jacket”, but you’d only need to watch a single clip of any of Elvis Presley’s songs to understand why he was called The King. His iconic voice and smart looks have never lost its appeal. Right in time for his birthday – January the 8th – Spreadshirt presents rocking designs to make the king proud.

Maddinicious: The quiff that Elvis used to wear in the late 50s had an impact on a whole generation of men. And for anyone associated with rock ‘n‘ roll culture, it is still an indispensable symbol of belonging to this scene. In Maddinicious‘ shop you can find designs combining smart designs with deft slogans such as “Rock Me” and “Rock ´n´ Roll Baby“ on mugs, T-shirts and hoodies. Read more
