Anyone here know if they made an official 1982 Van Halen Diver Down Shirt, such as this one in the picture..

Opinions on if it's an official VH shirt or bootleg. I've never saw one quite like it.

[Eyes of the Night]

I don't think they are legit but they look cool as fuck I'd buy one...

[Nitro Express]

I don't remember that style of shirt. Most of the Diver Down tour shirts had a lion with sunglasses busting through the VH logo on the front.

[Diamondjimi]

I remember this one. A low quality design. Most likely a bootleg shirt from the era....

[DLR Bridge]

Yeah, that's got parking lot written all over it.

[VAiN]

Yeah, that's got parking lot written all over it.

100% not legit. The wrong guitar on the back is the first clue.

[ELVIS]

No it isn't...

I think it might be real...

I've seen it before...

[Von Halen]

It's not real.

[DLR Bridge]

Parking lot = run off in someone's basement = not legit.

I've seen shirts like this where the VH logo is flipped. Yeah, that'll save the bootlegger's ass in court.

Thanks for the responses! Has anyone ever saw a shirt like this back in the early 80s besides DiamondJimi? Does anyone believe it's a bootleg from the 82 tour? DiamondJimi was this shirt sold in regular clothing and/or music stores?

[Von Halen]

I don't believe that shirt is from 1982, period. I think it is one of those done way after the fact, to try and make people think it was from 1982.

I'm not saying it's not cool. I kind of like it. If you like it, and want one, get one. Who cares if it's authentic, as long as you know what you are getting.

I've got a pair of Ed's stage worn striped up sneakers for sale. 250 bucks. They got holes and shit in em and these are the real deal. And if you buy them this weekend I'll drop the price to 100 bucks and I'll cover the paypal fees. Shipping is an extra $12.35 for the medium priority flat rate box.

Shit, almost forgot to tell you...For an extra 20 bucks I'll have Ed sign the shoes. You just gotta tell me if you want both shoes signed or one shoe signed or you want a nice little picture drawn on it. Hell, for 30 bucks I'll have Val, Al, AND Wolfie sign 'em!! And don't tell anybody this, OK? For just 100 extra bucks, that's 200 bucks plus shipping, I'll toss in Wolfie's Magic Earbuds! No shit. These are the Real Deal Motherfuckers. The earbuds that raised Ed from the Dead.

I also have one of Dave's Zorro capes that I'll let go for 75 bucks. Just let me know what color you want it to be.

Ridiculous. Yeah, get your "retro" and "vintage" concert t-shirt made in China, people. It's only $150 (minus tax and shipping) and will literally fall apart after say, two washes. But no need to worry since most of you cretins don't know shit about any form of personal hygiene.
