Looks to be 'horitoyo'. It's a very unusual combination, to the point where I was wondering if it was Chinese, but I do get some results, many of which seem to be tattoo places.
With that said, some of them are a bit...sketchy. (windmill enthusiasm in the first result is a bit worrying)
Not Chinese since the character would have been 豐
豊 is an archaic character
Even though that shop comes up in the search results, I don't think "彫豊" has any sort of nazi sentiment tied to it.
It looks like it's just a name associated with tattooing. Makes sense, as the design of the shirt seems to be emulating this kind of tattoo.
あかし akashi; maybe 明石 Akashi City in Hyogo Prefecture
彫豊 Horitoyo; 彫 hori means a tattoo, and 豊 toyo also reads as Yutaka, a Japanese given name for male, the artist name of Yutaka Nakamura, http://unc-dbjp.is-decent.com/?p=76
