  • Unscripted: Behind the Apparel by 1923 Main Street
    Jan 14 2025

    This is the story behind the Unscripted collection of casual wear by 1923 Main Street. Why it was created and how you're missing out by not traveling unscripted.


    Discover the Magic of Going Unscripted


    If there’s one thing we believe at 1923 Main Street, it’s that your best adventures and your best stories rarely come from following a script.

    That’s the inspiration behind the 1923 Main Street Unscripted line of graphic t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies. This collection is for those who live for the thrill of discovery on their own terms—whether that means wandering off the beaten path in a new city or uncovering hidden details in your favorite Disney park.


    The Inspiration Behind Unscripted

    The Unscripted line was born out of our love for unplanned exploring. As the founder of 1923 Main Street, I have always been a traveler who prefers to explore new destinations without guides. No pre-planned tours. No following the footsteps of someone else’s plan. And so the Unscripted concept was created to capture that sense of discovery and exploration.


    Unscripted is for travelers who prefer the luck of discovery over strict itineraries and those who believe, as we do, that the best experiences come when you follow your instincts rather than a schedule. If you prefer that someone else didn’t write your script for you, then Unscripted is for you. Whether it’s finding a hidden gem of a café in a quiet alley off the beaten track, or the quiet beauty of a side trail that leads to an epic view, these are the unscripted moments that make travel (of any kind) truly unforgettable.


    We also drew inspiration from another kind of traveler—one that shares the travel style of Mike himself. This is the Disney traveler who visits theme parks on their own terms.


    How many times have you heard people who are frustrated by the extreme overplanning “required” to have a great Disney vacation? Or the travelers who come home exhausted after a visit to Walt Disney World and say they need a vacation from their vacation?

    This is the antithesis of Unscripted.


    Overplanning is the Bane of Disney Travel (So Don’t Do It)


    Unscripted is not about having no plans at all. Let’s face it, some planning is necessary for any vacation, but it’s the overplanning that can suck the magic right out of a Disney vacation in particular. With so many travel guides, Disney planning platforms, self-proclaimed Disney influencers and park planning “gurus” telling you what to do, where to eat, where to go and when to do it…your vacation can quickly become robotic, stressful and not enjoyable. You’re living somebody else’s script, not your own.


    The Unscripted traveler breaks free of rigid schedules and discovers the parks with a sense of freedom, wonder and curiosity—exactly how Walt Disney intended it to be.


    Instead of rushing to check everything off a list, the Unscripted Disney travelers savor the hidden magic in the details all around them—like the hidden on Main Street, watching your kids have fun away from long ride lines, the quiet corners of discovery in Animal Kingdom, or the unexpected encounters with Cast Members who make each visit unique. Even if you set aside only a day or two of your vacation to go Unscripted, it can have a big impact on your overall vacation and peace of mind. Try it and you’ll see. You may find that your Unscripted day was the best and most memorable day of all.

  • The Top 10 T-Shirt, Sweatshirt and Hoodie Colors for 2025
    Jan 7 2025
    Color choices are a big factor when it comes to buying a new t-shirt, sweatshirt or hoodie. So what are the top 10 trending colors for casual clothing in 2025? We've done the work and compiled a list.What’s Trending for T-Shirt Colors in 2025Subtle Disney-inspired fashion isn’t just about looking good—it’s about feeling good. That’s what we’re all about at 1923 Main Street, with unique original casual clothing designs inspired by the magic and the travel style of Disney travelers (and more).We know (as do you) that the right outfit can take you from “I’m just here for the rides” to “This is my happily ever after.” Whether you’re hitting up the parks in style or just channeling Disney vibes at home when you’re not on vacation, 1923 Main Street has everything you need to stay stylish and comfortable.The perfect outfit is a combination of several things, including the perfect t-shirt, sweatshirt or hoodie to go with your style. We know that you care about what you wear and that’s why we put a lot of thought into each unique piece of clothing that we create. This includes the garment color. In our last episode we share the top colors and styles from 2024 based on what you spent your money on in the shop. This week, we’re looking ahead to what will be the hottest and most popular casual clothing colors for t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies in 2025.The Top 10 T-Shirt, Sweatshirt and Hoodie Colors to Watch for in 2025 Whether you like classic white tees or colorful variations, the base color of any casual top sets the tone for the overall style—and will be a big determiner on whether an item fits your outfit. It’s a carefully balanced symphony between the graphic design and underlying color. We always do our best to offer light and dark color variations of base top and then adjust the graphic accordingly, without jeopardizing the integrity of the graphic itself. With that in mind, we have crunched the numbers, fashion predictions of style trends data to come up with what promises to be the definitive top 10 list for t-shirt, sweatshirt and hoodie colors in 2025. Which of these colors will you be buying this year? We won’t necessarily be following all of these trends, but here’s what you can expect to see globally as you shop for casual clothes in 2025. Top 10 Colors for T-Shirts, Sweatshirts and Hoodies in 2025 1. Classic WhiteThe perennial and original classic white isn’t going anywhere this year. It’s a classic for a reason (both style wise and from a technical design base perspective), so expect to see the classic white t-shirt, sweatshirts and hoodies wherever you shop. 2. CoralCoral is an interesting blend of red, orange and even a little pink. It tends to be more muted in tone but can be very light or very deep colored. Coral base shirts can have color names such as Terracotta, Burnt Sierra, Pastel Red or Salmon. 3. Olive GreenThe greens are an interesting color for casual clothing tops and olive green appears to be trending for 2025. Olive Green tends to be one of the warmer toned greens with a slight yellow undertone. 4. Powder BlueAnother trending color for this year, Powder Blue is one of the lighter blue colors. It’s in the range of blue-greens if you look at a color palette. It tends to be a pale blue color that is much lighter than a navy blue, for example. Color names light Sky Blue or Light Blue would be in this spectrum, with something like a Baby Blue being a slightly more vibrant variation. 5. RedReds are looking to be popular again in 2025, following up on the trend that saw vibrant reds sell well in 2024. There are many variations of reds, but fiery reds will be a dominant red this year. Fiery red is a bold red, with a reddish orange tone. It can be a great base layer for the right graphic design, especially if you’re looking for a statement top. 6. MustardMustard is an interesting color. It’s sometimes a love it or hate it color, but for those who love it, it can be a statement piece. Rich and warm in tone, mustard is a yellowish-brown color, closer to a Dijon mustard if you consider the condiment. It can be a light or dark shade. Mustard falls somewhere between yellow and orange on the color spectrum. This will be an interesting trend to watch, because mustard has often been considered one of the least popular colors for graphic t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies. Will 2025 be a breakout year for mustard? 7. LavenderPurple is often a popular color and lavender is a very pale purple shade. It can appear in quite a range of shades and tones for t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies. Lavender is best described as a blue-tinged pale, light gray-purple color. It differs from lilac, for example, which is more pink where lavender is blue. In our shop, you may see lavenders more on dresses and swimwear. 8. Neutral BeigeThe neutrals is a trend that we clearly saw emerging in 2024 and it is expected to continue in 2025. Neutral Beige ...
