Women’s Tee – Operation Retribution Edition (Left Breast, Full Colour Design)

Right then – if you like your WW2 history with a bit of naval dominance and a side of tactical brilliance, this tee’s for you. Operation Retribution – April 1943 – the Royal Navy and RAF said, "No escape for you, sunshine," and boxed the Axis right in. Result? Total lockdown. Not a single German or Italian soldier got out of Tunisia by sea. That’s how you finish a campaign – with style and steel.

We’ve taken this incredibly soft, relaxed-fit tee and given it a sharp little full-colour Operation Retribution insignia on the left breast – quiet but deadly, like a Royal Navy cruiser loitering off Cape Bon. Subtle enough for daily wear, but with a serious undercurrent of “Don’t mess with me – I know my naval ops.”

• 100% combed and ring-spun cotton – soft as a lull in the Mediterranean, tough as a destroyer’s hull
• Heather Prism Lilac & Heather Prism Natural: 99% cotton, 1% polyester – built for calm seas or choppy debates
• Athletic Heather: 90% cotton, 10% polyester – holds formation, even under full barrage
• Other Heather colours: 52% cotton, 48% polyester – engineered for durability and desert campaign glory
• Fabric weight: 4.2 oz/y² (142 g/m²) – light and agile, like a Fairey Swordfish on final approach
• Relaxed fit – comfort you can wear while planning a full naval cordon
• Pre-shrunk – no retreat, no surrender, no shrinkage
• Side-seamed construction – sharp, clean lines like a flotilla off La Goulette
• Crew neck – standard issue, dependable as the Home Fleet
• Blank sourced from Nicaragua, Honduras, or the US – global logistics worthy of Admiral Cunningham

Operation Retribution was the full stop on the North African campaign – a curtain call for the Afrika Korps. No heroics, no theatrics – just disciplined, ruthless efficiency. Now you can wear that same quiet power across your chest.

A Bit About the T-Shirt (And Why You Should Check Your Size!)

Al Murray: Now, let’s talk about the T-shirt itself—this isn’t some cheap knockoff; it’s print-on-demand, which means no wasted stock sitting in a warehouse somewhere gathering dust. Instead, every shirt is printed just for you, which is a win for both history lovers and the planet.

James Holland: Absolutely. But, and this is important—check your size before you order. We don’t want loads of returns bouncing around, adding to unnecessary emissions. Pick the right fit, wear it with pride, and show the world you know your history.

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
