Man in the Arena.
The Man in the Arena tee depicts a gladiator locked in combat with a loaded barbell, Roman colosseum ablaze behind him, crowd watching from the stands. This is the arena where strength is tested, where warriors prove their worth.

Why lifters love it
- Gladiator spirit: It's not the critic who counts, it's the one in the arena, face marred by dust and sweat and blood.
- Epic scene: Burning colosseum, roaring crowd, warrior locked in battle with heavy iron.
- Roosevelt tribute: Inspired by Teddy Roosevelt's famous "Man in the Arena" speech about those who dare greatly.
- Premium comfort: Soft, broken in feel from day one.
