Vintage Floorpunch "Winter 1999" Misprint T-Shirt
Floorpunch were a straight edge hardcore band from New Jersey formed by ex members of Release, Insurrection, and Spirit (who Rick Ta Life called "phat") in 1995. The band released a demo and Division One Champs EP on Brett Beach's In My Blood Records before releasing their final release, the Fast Times at the Jersey Shore LP on Equal Vision Records in 1998. In their short tenure, Floorpunch were both the preeminent straight edge band and one of the most controversial bands on the hardcore scene. They drew from a late 80s style of NYHC that was nearly forgotten at that point, bringing attention back to bands like Youth of Today, Breakdown, and Cro-Mags while also making more obscure bands, like Outburst, standard parts of core conversation. They were clean cut and jockish. And, most of all, they were unapologetic in their approach. In 1999, the band went on a winter tour in support of their Fast Times LP. While printing shirts for the tour, they accidentally put the crucial live pic on the front instead of the back, an odd look for a straight edge shirt. So they screened the back and the sleeve and sold as a tour exclusive. This original three-sided Floorpunch shirt, in excellent condition, is a misprint from the band's 1999 Fast Time On The Jersey Tour.
