404 Error, query string modify correctly but doesnt display the correct content

Im struggling to implement the rewrite rule, although the redirect completes correctly, it does not display the former page content, instead I just get a 404 error in the browser

.htaccess reads as follows:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([0-9]+)$ RewriteRule ^shirt.php$ /shirts/%1/? [R=301]
