To avoid the hustle and bustle of main highways, we Southerners enjoy taking the back roads. So, we designed The Backroads Tee Collection to illustrate the unique symbols and history of each state where some of our favorite country routes are located. Established in 1792 as the 15th state to join the US, Kentucky is popularly referred to as the Bluegrass State and famous for the Kentucky Derby. We illustrated a jockey on his horse on a rustic license plate design along with a map of the great state of Kentucky so you can sport your love for the Bluegrass State in style.
