Zildjian 400th Anniversary Armenian T-shirt - Medium

Unisex Relaxed Fit T-shirt with 400th-anniversary Alchemy Graphic, Woven Patch Tag, and Tri-blend Fabric - Medium, Limited Edition

Centuries of Heritage, Milestone-worthy Designs

As staggering as it is, it’s nothing short of monumental that Zildjian commemorates 400 years of heritage in 2023. And, of course, Sweetwater is proud to help them celebrate. This impressive milestone is being marked by a slew of limited-edition shirts, hats, and drumsticks, and each capsule represents a different instrumental moment in the company’s story. For these T-shirts, Zildjian looks to the 1920s for the Armenian design, a pattern representing the company’s move from Turkey to their new headquarters in Quincy, Massachusetts, in 1929. Equal parts art deco and heritage line work, the Armenian graphic fittingly utilizes Turkish aesthetics of the era to signify Avedis Zildjian III’s escape from the oppression put on the Armenian people of the region. This highly intricate work adorns this ultra-soft, tri-blend fabric, a special patch tag near the bottom hem, and their 400th-anniversary logo below the back collar. These relaxed-fit, unisex 400th Anniversary Armenian T-shirts expertly blend comfort and style, running true to size and perfect for flexing your support.

Zildjian: an empire 400 years in the making

Innovation and heritage have been inextricably infused into the lifeblood of Zildjian instruments dating back to Avedis Zildjian’s work as a metalsmith and alchemist under the sultan of the Ottoman Empire. His discovery of a proprietary alloy led to his relocation along the Marmara Sea, thus birthing the formal Zildjian, “the Family of Cymbalsmiths,” as spoken in traditional Armenian. The rest is literal history. Empires and eras have risen and fallen — Zildjian itself was founded closer to the Roman Empire’s final days, yet the cymbal’s spirit persevered. This limited-edition collection exemplifies Zildjian’s illustrious musical lineage, from finding a home in the compositions of Berlioz and Wagner to establishing new roots in the United States and becoming the single biggest proprietor of cymbals in the world. Each piece of commemorative apparel pays homage to the company’s Armenian roots, complemented by designs influenced by the eras Zildjian was instrumental in defining on its road to becoming an undisputed musical empire.
