itt "FUN SHIRTS"

yeah i agree. trying too hard to make it 'tasteful' when thats not really the point i dont think

my dad just sold a 90s rayon hawaiian thing on ebay for 60£. crazy.

that's what you wear here! lots of manufacturers actually sew shirts inside out, so the print is on the inside, and the muted reverse is on the outside.

here's one of my louder prints (that i dont wear to work)

on the left, right-side out (the way it was designed to be worn) and on the right inside-out (for lols)

nice!

the reyn one is prob thick, heavy & a little rigid (but soft to touch)

pullovers are prob poised to be huge soon

I may buy one of those tori richard shirts gr80 linked!

hey grady

brand / measurements / where to cop

Hey guys I wrote some ad copy for this kind of shirt:

"The shirt. Remixed."

Guys where are nice places to get fun shirts for oh idk like less than $40 or $50 maybe?

ebay, probably?

What about IRL stores though? I never know what size to get when I order online

what do you mean? besides the reyn website?

stevie, i think a lot of classic 'fun shirts' on the 2ndary market are gonna be from brooks bros, whose shirts tend to have a very generous, almost blousy cut, so take that as you will. also any decent ebay seller will provide garment measurements

they are sometimes listed as 'patchwork' instead of 'fun' which means you can also see stuff like this:

^this is the same color scheme as my old OCB uniform. ~the sound of my soul withering~

gr8080 that bright last floral one you posted (inside-out) is a reyn shirt? they don't have anything quite that loud / bright on the website iirc

engineered garments killed the game this season but no way i'm paying two bills for a rayon shirt

no the one i posted two photos of is a thrift store find, as are p much all of my non-work ones.

i bet if a dedicated a few hundred bucks and a few weekends of shopping/posting, i could ride this trend to a v v lucrative eBay store fast

and yes nothing breaks my heart more than seeing a beautiful print in a size that fits me then realizing its rayon/polyester

*thumbs up*

Personally find the full Hawaiian a bit much, but have been looking for a twist on it that I like. I have a few floral print shirts with a more small-scale regular print, which prob suits me more.

ronan did you look through the reyn spooner ones i linked to?

hey, is this cool or lame

http://www.ebay.com/itm/TORI-RICHARD-Hawaiian-Camp-Shirt-size-Large-Jaguar-Tropical-Jungle-Print-Rayon-/290694804094#ht_876wt_1114

those are actually up my street, yeah grady. i like vahid's second one above too.

i can see how that one you just posted would potentially be nice btw vahid, not really the style i like but i have seen people wearing similar. i sort of think a bit of the problem is london this summer is raining all the time too, most prints i'm wearing is with a blazer or underneath a cardigan.

it looks a lot like shirts my dad wears though and he has weird ideas about proportion

i like this shirt a lot, though not anything else on this website: http://www.allsaints.com/men/uncategorised/allsaints-grosvenor-ss-shirt/?colour=60&category=11

started thread on dadstylez

xp I'm completely allergic to AllSaints as a brand but I can see how someone (not me) could look great in that shirt.

TLG - that tori richard shirt has the potential to be cool but its a crazy longshot-- like i can hypothetically see someone pulling it off but the odds are so stacked in "lame"'s favor i'd avoid it imo

Agree mostly, Sean, their stuff is all black and grey and grungey, awful. I like colours.

caek and his homeboy totally nailing it upthread btw

ty! i love that shirt. neckbeard still a work in progress.

picked up a vintage aloha shirt at an antiques mall in maine, of all places. sailboats! rainbows! it's pretty rad and i'm wearing it today.

pic svp

i got two safari shirts w/ four or more pockets on the front, how fun is that

also a sunshine yellow and sky blue tattersall

oh wait hold up

if it looks weird it's because the palm tree is coming up toward you, the mirror is leaning sharply away and i'm holding my arms out farther than it looks

but yeah "fun shirts" got hookups in thailand and indonesia of all places

have these monsters been posted here yet
