“Once a Marine, Always a Marine” T-Shirt — 250 Years of Brotherhood. Honor That Never Retires.

Description

250 Years of Brotherhood. Honor That Never Retires.

From the sands of Tripoli to the battlefields of modern conflict, the United States Marine Corps has carried a legacy unlike any other — a brotherhood bound by courage, sacrifice, and unwavering pride. This Powder & Lead exclusive design honors that lineage through time, featuring four Marines standing shoulder to shoulder across centuries of service.

Each figure represents a generation — from the Revolutionary War Continental Marine to the battle-hardened modern warrior in digital camo — a living timeline of valor, discipline, and dedication. Beneath them, the words that every Marine knows by heart:

“Once a Marine, Always a Marine.”

This isn’t just a motto. It’s a way of life.

Whether you’ve earned the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor yourself or stand proud beside someone who has, this shirt embodies the unbreakable spirit of the Corps — forged in battle, carried through time, and honored forever.

Design Story

The design celebrates the evolution of the U.S. Marine through more than two centuries of service. From the tricorn hats and flintlocks of the 18th century to the modern combat loadout of today’s Marines, every detail pays homage to the Corps’ proud transformation — united by one constant: the spirit of the Marine.

The artwork captures each uniform and rifle era with museum-level accuracy, creating a striking display of history and pride. It’s not just a shirt — it’s a tribute to the men and women who have stood the line since 1775.

Printed on military-inspired olive heather fabric, it carries the same rugged authenticity that defines the Corps itself.
