We don't make car guy t-shirts that are glorified shop rags.

Red X Thread is fashion for men that value craftsmanship, attention to detail and no-compromise standards. This is stuff you can wear to the track, on a road trip or on a dinner date. It would make good ol' Shel proud.

We don’t have customers, we have fans.

Petrolhead on a mission

This whole thing started because I was tired of looking like I got dressed in a car show souvenir tent.

I’ve always believed our 'sickness' deserves better than thin, off-the-shelf tees, that make us look like walking billboards. If our cars mean something, our clothes should too.

I pour my heart and soul into every Red X Thread garment – handcrafted, premium fabrics and custom patterns. Clothing built to last as long as the cars that inspired it.

OFFICIAL LICENSED

Because you know the difference between a tribute and a knock-off. Every piece starts with real lore, real machines, and real legacy, not made-up nostalgia and clip-art horsepower.

WARDROBE UPGRADE

Make your closet perform better, like swapping that 289 for a 427. Our goal – design clothing you reach for first and is worth keeping, even when your wife tries to get rid of it a decade later.

FIT AND COMFORT

Quality fabric, better construction, pre-shrunk and true-to-size. Think of that cozy feeling tucked into a racing seat – not at all like sliding around on a bench in your parents’ old Ranch Wagon.

We would ask the same questions…

WHAT SIZE AM I?

If you already own a sweater or tee you love, compare it to our size guide and you’ll be in good shape.

WILL IT SHRINK?

Nope. Every garment is factory washed for pre-shrinkage. No surprises. This is how we wash our clothes.

WHAT IF IT DOESN’T FIT?

If the fit’s off, we’ll help sort it out. We want you to love it, not settle for it. Check out our return/exchange policy.

WHERE IS IT MADE?

Quality, ethics, and consistency are important to us. We design everything in Canada and use a family-run factory in Portugal, who craft our products with pride. Learn more…

IS IT OFFICIALLY LICENSED?

Absolutely. Every piece is the real deal. We partner with heritage brands that have truly earned their place in automotive history and we work hard to respect that.
