Vintage Iowa Shirts: Defunct Iowa Baseball Teams

Iowa baseball ran along its rivers. The Mississippi River towns of Davenport, Clinton, Dubuque, and Keokuk fielded clubs for decades, Cedar Rapids had both the Rabbits and the Raiders, and out west Sioux City and Council Bluffs played in the Western League. Des Moines contributed two of the great nicknames in minor league history: the Demons and, in the 1890s, the Undertakers.

Our vintage Iowa shirts honor these defunct clubs with original designs grounded in real research.

Every team below links to its own collection, where you can read the full history and shop shirts, hoodies, and crewnecks for that club. Find your hometown team, or the one your grandfather used to talk about.
