Cobain gifted the shirt to Schemel in the early 1990s.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cCobain and Schemel were close friends, and Schemel was a huge fan of films which she would often encourage Cobain to watch, such as the 1980 film Foxes<\/em> starring Jodi Foster who Schemel was a huge fan of,\u201d reads a description of the shirt on Julien\u2019s website. \u201cThe friends were also big fans of fun and obscure thrifted T-shirts, and frequently shopped together at thrift stores away from the city, sharing their finds with each other.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tAccording to the auction listing, a stylist brought several shirts to the 1993 shoot, and Cobain selected the Foxes<\/em> tee because he and Schemel enjoyed watching the film together. After the shoot, Cobain asked to keep the shirt before eventually gifting it to Schemel, who also played in Hole alongside his wife, Courtney Love.<\/p>\n \n\tThe light blue short-sleeve shirt features the Foxes<\/em> logo on the front and the slogan \u201cDaring To Do It\u201d across the back. Cobain, who died by suicide in 1994, wore the shirt alongside his signature white oval-frame sunglasses in the now-iconic black-and-white 1993 photo featuring bandmates Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl. The image is currently used as Spotify\u2019s banner photo for Nirvana\u2019s page.<\/p>\n \n\tThe auction also includes a signed letter of authenticity from Schemel detailing how she came to own the shirt. The letter begins, \u201cSeattle, WA, Summer, 1993\u2026\u201d before recounting the story behind the item.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cI went to Kurt and Courtney\u2019s house to pick up Courtney for Hole rehearsals,\u201d Schemel writes. \u201cI went upstairs and sat on the bed while Courtney got ready to leave. Kurt came in and grabbed a shirt from a pile of clothes. He said, \u2018You should have this.\u2019 It was a blue promo T-shirt from the 1980 movie Foxes<\/em>. We shared an interest in 1970\u2019s and 1980\u2019s teen angst cult movies. Kurt had the soundtrack. I loved Jodie Foster who starred in it.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tCheck out the listing on Schemel\u2019s Instagram page here.<\/p>\n [analyse_source url=”https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/music-news\/kurt-cobain-foxes-shirt-auction-patty-schemel-hole-1236256153\/”]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [analyse_image type=”featured” src=”https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/nirvana-pool-1991-billboard-1800.jpg?w=1024″] Trending on Billboard A rare piece of Kurt Cobain memorabilia is heading to auction.
