Thermopylae, 480 BC — the last stand at the Hot Gates.

Inspired by the Battle of Thermopylae, this historical T-shirt recalls King Leonidas I, the Spartans and their allied Greek defenders holding the narrow pass against the invading Persian army of Xerxes I during the Greco-Persian Wars.

Thermopylae was ultimately a Persian battlefield victory, but the rearguard action became one of antiquity’s most enduring stories of discipline and resistance. This Iron Regiment design is made for anyone fascinated by ancient Greece, Spartan history and classical warfare.
