The word T-shirt made its way in the Merriam-Webster dictionary around 1920 and was named so for the shape of its outline. During the Great Depression, ranch and farm workers often defaulted to the T-shirt when conditions called for more comfortable attire, since it was considered inappropriate to show the naked torso.
