What is still not clear is what you mean by "license." If the name will be a name that you own, and you will sell shirts under that name, there is no "license" -- the term license implies that the shirts will be sold by someone other than the owner of the incorporated trademark. You don't need to take any special steps to sell products using a mark that you own. You might wish to protect the mark by registering it.
