The Heavy Cactus B747 Airplane T-Shirt

Big, bold, and gone too soon. This tee celebrates the legendary Heavy Cactus Boeing 747—an unexpected chapter in the airline’s story. Leased briefly in the mid-1980s for flights to Hawaii and Japan, this jumbo jet brought long-haul dreams to a carrier better known for desert hops. It didn’t last, but it sure left an impression. Because nothing says 'go big or go home' like a 747 in the famous cactus colors.

This collection is a bold salute to the airline that brought color, character, and canyon-sized ambition to the skies—from desert sunsets on fuselages to 757s repping hometown teams. Based in Phoenix and never afraid to stand out, it flew with flair before merging into memory. These tees honor a carrier that did things its own way—and looked damn good doing it. Thanks for the ride. 

Built to Last. Made to Feel Good. Printed on a high quality, soft but heavyweight Comfort Colors Tee. Made from 100% U.S. ring-spun cotton
