Gen X & Millennial Parent Shirts
JLM Apparel's Gen X & Millennial parent shirts are funny graphic tees for the spot where two generations overlap: parents who grew up with mixtapes and payphones, raising kids on playlists and smartphones. They're unisex, printed on demand in white ink on soft black Gildan Softstyle tees, and made for friendly family arguments.
Where the generations cross over
Gen X brought the nostalgia. Millennials brought the parenting chaos. This page is for the jokes that belong to both. Most of them run "My / Your" style: My Mixtape, Your Playlist, My Payphone, Your Smartphone and My Streetlight Curfew, Your Location Sharing. One side grew up with a phone cord and a curfew. The other side grew up with a phone in their pocket and a map that knows where they are.
Who these shirts are for
They're for the parent who keeps explaining how a mixtape worked, the Millennial who still remembers the dial-up tone, and the older sibling who sits somewhere in the middle. They also make an easy gift for a friend who just became a parent and still talks about how it was "back in my day."
