The Story

25,000 imported Italian twinkle lights, and not one of them working right.

Our Clark Griswold-inspired tee pays tribute to the most chaotic Christmas dad in cinema history — a man determined to have the perfect family holiday no matter how many things go wrong. Whether "Christmas Vacation" is a yearly tradition in your house or you're discovering the chaos for the first time, this design is made for people who understand that the holidays are never quite as smooth as planned.

The Crowd

The Questions

Is this officially licensed? No. This is an original DSTRY parody-inspired design created for fans of Christmas cult cinema.

Does it fit true to size? Yes. Order your normal size for a standard fit or size up for a relaxed oversized look.

How should I care for the print? Wash inside out at 30°C and avoid tumble drying to help protect the print over time.
