Product Insights
The St-Viateur Bagel T-Shirt is a discontinued collector's item that evokes Montreal pride and sparks conversations through its nostalgic bagel graphic featuring the founding year 1957. Its durable opaque screen-print resists cracking and matches online photos, but the 100% Gildan cotton jersey is rough and shrinks 3-8% in warm wash, while the boxy, shapeless fit disappoints those seeking a modern silhouette. The value is polarising: the exclusive, vintage graphic and scarcity offset the poor fabric quality. Care requires cold wash and air dry to preserve the fit, and the bold design restricts wear to casual looks. Overall, it is a retro-modern statement piece for collectors willing to accept material limitations.

Satisfaite
Difficile à trouver ce t-shirt même au Bagel St-Viateur. Ils ont changé le modèle. Donc ce t-shirt est devenu vintage !

Great
Good quality
Nice thick fabric. Design is as pictured.
Great print, disappointing shirt quality
This is a great print and I was very excited to gift it, but the shirt itself is a generic, poorer quality Gildan shirt with custom print. I was anticipating something much better quality.
Cute tshirt
The fabric feels good, the design is cute, very Canadian.
Bagel shirt
Loved the shirt from a Montreal staple
Poorly made t-shirt
The shirt was boxy looking and the material was poor quality. I was sad about that since I was excited about the logo.
Cool look, but it’s a Gildan shirt
Quality of shirt is subpar. Screen printed on a Gildan tshirt. Thick and rough material. Will be returning
