This design captures the Memphis Tigers look from 1965 to 1972 in a seated cartoon mascot with plenty of attitude. The orange body, black stripes, white muzzle and paws, and that small green eye give it a distinctly vintage feel rather than a modern sports logo. It will appeal to University of Memphis supporters, alumni, and collectors of older college mascot artwork who want something with period character.
Because it is a dense, heavily stitched design with just four thread colours, it has a solid, filled look that suits sturdier fabrics especially well. I would use it on sweatshirts, varsity-style jackets, denim shirts, tote bags, or the back of a fleece where the bold outline and curved tail can read clearly. The heavier stitching helps the tiger hold its shape nicely, so the whiskers, ear details and stripe pattern still show up as proper features instead of getting lost.
