Founded 50 years ago by Peter Lord and David Sproxton, Aardman began exactly where you’d expect â with a slightly odd, brilliantly funny character and a lot of creative ambition. Aard-Man, their cell-animated superhero, first appeared on Vision On, laying the foundations for the humour, charm and storytelling that would define the studio for generations to come. Created for our special 50th anniversary capsule, this khaki pocket-print T-shirt pays tribute to where it all began. A subtle, character-led design that celebrates Aardman’s roots, it’s a nod to the wit, creativity and quietly brilliant characters that have made the studio so beloved over the last half-century.
