1988 Iron Maiden “Somewhere on Tour” Tour Tee
This 1988 Iron Maiden “Somewhere On Tour” tee is official tour-issued merch from the band’s legendary Somewhere in Time era. Front and back prints showcase classic sci-fi-infused artwork featuring Eddie in full cybernetic form, a visual extension of the futuristic themes that defined the album. The graphics are unmistakable—oversized, high-contrast, and deeply rooted in Maiden’s visual mythology.
This particular shirt was sold during the original Somewhere On Tour run, a global trek in 1988, marking one of the band’s most ambitious and visually theatrical stages. The front features Eddie in a dystopian stance, while the back depicts full tour dates in large block lettering—a detail many modern reproductions and bootlegs lack.
Constructed from tubular cotton with a single-stitch finish, the shirt is a prime example of mid-‘80s concert merch at its peak. Official licensing appears along the graphic’s hem, confirming its authenticity.
Tagged XL. Measures 21.5x27.5.
Flaws - Minor graphics fading
Essential for Iron Maiden completists and collectors of authentic tour-era shirts. As one of the most graphically intense and desirable designs from their catalog, original Somewhere On Tour tees continue to command respect and rarity in the vintage metal scene.
