Six colors. One tee that tells a story on both sides. This pre-loved Chinatown Market collab tee is the kind of piece that lives at the intersection of streetwear culture and Grateful Dead mythology — bold, playful, and dripping with meaning. Three Dancing Bears on the front, three on the back, each rendered in a different vivid hue, with a clean white \u003cem\u003eP.M.A. — Positive Mental Attitude\u003c\/em\u003e print and the Chinatown Market banner rounding out the design. A wearable manifesto.\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eThis tee has been worn, loved, and lived in — and it shows in the best way. Pre-loved pieces carry a sustainable character that new garments simply can’t replicate. Choosing this means choosing less waste, more story, and a wardrobe with real soul.\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e~The Brand Story — Chinatown Market \u0026amp; Why the Name Changed:\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eChinatown Market was founded in 2016 by Mike Cherman, a New York-born designer who built the brand from a literal market stall in Los Angeles’ Chinatown neighborhood. The brand exploded by doing something rare in streetwear: it was genuinely fun. Smiley faces, bold graphics, DIY culture, and a deep love of collaboration defined its DNA. Chinatown Market became known for unexpected collabs — with the NBA, Grateful Dead, Converse, and more — and for making streetwear feel accessible and joyful rather than exclusive and cold.\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eIn 2021, the brand announced it would be rebranding to \u003cstrong\u003eMarket\u003c\/strong\u003e. The decision came after community conversations about the use of “Chinatown” in the name — a recognition that the name, while rooted in the brand’s origin story, could be seen as appropriative of a cultural neighborhood identity. The rebrand to Market preserved the brand’s spirit while making space for a more inclusive future. Pieces from the Chinatown Market era — like this one — are now collector’s items, a snapshot of a pivotal chapter in contemporary streetwear history.\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eThis tee, marked \u003cem\u003e© 2020 GDP (Grateful Dead Productions)\u003c\/em\u003e, is from that original era — a genuine artifact of the collab that brought two iconic worlds together.\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e~ The Story Behind This Tee:\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eThe Grateful Dead’s Dancing Bears have been a symbol of free-spirited joy since they first appeared on the back of the 1973 album \u003cem\u003eBear’s Choice\u003c\/em\u003e. When Chinatown Market got the keys to the GDP archive, they did what they do best: turned an icon into a celebration. Six bears, six colors — a nod to the original multicolored bear lineup — spread across front and back with the brand’s signature irreverence. The \u003cem\u003eP.M.A. — Positive Mental Attitude\u003c\/em\u003e print ties it all together, a mantra borrowed from hardcore punk culture and reframed through the lens of Deadhead optimism. It’s a tee that bridges generations, subcultures, and philosophies in a single garment.\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e~ Product Details:\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eBrand: Chinatown Market × Grateful Dead Productions\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eLicensing: © 2020 GDP — Grateful Dead Productions\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eGraphic: 6 Dancing Bears in 6 colors — 3 front, 3 back\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003ePrint: White “P.M.A. Positive Mental Attitude” text, Chinatown Market banner, © 2020 GDP\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eNeckline: Classic crew neck\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eSleeves: Short sleeve\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eConstruction: Double-stitched seams for durability\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eFit: Unisex \u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eWeight: Heavyweight cotton\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eMaterial: 100% Cotton\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eCondition: Pre-loved, good condition — some signs of wear consistent with previous use.
