It all started in a driveway in Lowell, Michigan in 1974. Eighteen friends put $1 in a pot to play a 3 on 3 tournament. Little did they know it would grow into the most famous basketball challenge in Michigan.

Surprised one of my best friends with this shirt for his 50th birthday! We played in the Gus Macker as high school freshmen and it was one of the best weekends! Giving him this shirt, allowed us to relive lots of memories. It’s his favorite shirt! Extremely comfortable! I got one as well! Great shirt! So many people ask about. I tell them go to mitten state!
Seeing my hub in this makes me smile. We loved the Gus Macker!
I ordered several shirts for Christmas gifts this year - and the Gus Macker shirt was to make up for throwing out my husband's original shirt nearly 20 years ago. :) Thanks for helping me redeem myself! All of the shirts I ordered are excellent quality and were well received.
When you’ve moved from MI to FL things get lost in the shuffle and then you hear, “I wish I could find my old Gus Macker shirt,” 21 years later know you’ve just been given the go ahead to find one for Father’s Day. I got on the Google and found a few beat up ones on eBay but then The Mitten State came thru once again. Great shirt as always. We have quite a few in the wardrobe at this point…always makes a great gift.
My dad was absolutely blown away when he got this t-shirt from me. He actually used to play in the Gus Macker tournaments. It was a great time in his life, and he hadn't thought about it in a long time. This was awesome. Thanks for such a nostalgic piece of merchandise. Love it!
Love the shirt, very soft. Excellent company to deal with. Extremely happy and will do business with The Mitten State again.
This sweatshirt is so soft! It's washed well so far and the logo looks great. This is my 2nd sweatshirt I've ordered from them and I love them both.
