They nicknamed the USS Constitution "Old Ironsides" for her ability to take an absolute beating in battle and still be floating when the smoke settled. Old Ironsides went 42-0 before she was finally retired, and is now the oldest commissioned battleship in the world still afloat.

"Her deck, once red with heroes' blood,
Where knelt the vanquished foe,
When winds were hurrying o'er the flood,
And waves were white below,
No more shall feel the victor's tread,
Or know the conquered knee;--
The harpies of the shore shall pluck
The eagle of the sea!"

-- from Old Ironsides, Oliver Wendell Holmes

About 1776 United

We created 1776 United to evoke a sense of patriotism found in our forefathers. Most have forgotten to ask themselves not what their country can do for them, but what they can do for their country.

Our dream is to inspire a new wave of patriotism that might lead to the next Greatest Generation. We aim for the clothing we create to embody the many chapters of American history. Each shirt is a cotton reminder of who we are, where we live, and where we're going.
