I was sorting out a load of clothes the other day and found a couple of old Cropredy T shirts from as far back as 1985.
Just wondered; What are people's favourite cropredy t shirt?
I think mine is the 2001 with the panorama of the concert field on the front.

The Celtic knot one is probably the best design IMHO, my only Cropredy T shirt is from 1989 but the bugger doesn't fit. Billy is that Rothwell between Wakey & Leeds?

The 93 one with the big circle with loads of different things in it! I didn't like the 2001 very much...thought it was a bit boring  |

Not only is the celtic knot my favourite design, it is also in perfect condition, despite the amount that I wear it. Unlike last years psychadelic one, where already half the design has come off. Paul |

Quite liked the psychedelic one, although i have the same print problem.
The 93 shirt i liked, i'm afraid i had to chuck it away it had loads of holes in it, probably for the best as it was in that 'orrible orange colour.

1992 just pushes the Celtic Knot into second place. However, my 1989 collarless sweatshirt (see avatar) is so special it only comes out once a year in August. I used to be indecisive, now I am not sure  |

A friend of mine went to Cropredy one year and all they brought me was an XXXL t-shirt with a Celtic Knot design in the colour of ..... ahem .... dusky pink.  I've never been able to wear it without getting funny looks, so it's now my nightshirt.  Peel |

I have a soft spot for the African-y one, can't remember the year as it's so faded... lots of little jokes hiding amongst the pattern: pints and chips and things. Also the eye with the harlequin (94?/5?) But the one I actually wear all the time is the Waddsworths '6X Kitten' - it's the only one small enough!

I lost mine  - was certainly one of my faves. 94 and 5 are very faded. 92 and 3 less so, but falling to bits. Like 2001 too. |

I've still got one, white with the crest on the front & 'In Real Time' (in the Fairport font) on the back. Must have been the 1988 tour. |
