And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
That should be their tagline. They're made for city posers and grunge bands who want to look outdoorsy, without ever going there.
I'll stick to my real-deal all-wool (or 80+%) Pendletons, Woolrich, and Filson, TYVM. Buy once, cry once. Cotton is for the flatlands, or the desert in summer. Fake flannel is an abomination, and potentially a suicidal fashion choice.
I treated a kid (dumbass teenager) in the ER who was sent to clean the calf-high icy slush out of a food distribution warehouse freezer (half-acre-sized) in his street clothes, for an 8-hour shift, including Levis, cotton socks and canvas tennis shoes. That entire mission was bag-of-hammers stupid on multiple levels, and I recommended to him that he sue both his supervisor(s), and the corporation, for medical bills and actual lifetime damages for improper work attire when they should have known better, but his own fashion choices underline the problem with cotton after just a few hours.
He had profound frostbite in all ten toes, worst in the smaller toes, and if he didn't lose any, he will be prone to repeat freezing injuries for the rest of his life, whether we're talking about working in a warehouse in SoCal flatlands, or a hike through the Sierras.
Once you see someone with technicolor purple and white digits, in May in SoCal, from cotton + cold, it's definitely a lot less funny.
Good shirt. Have several. Goid color choices.
ReplyDeleteI'll stick with a Pendelton
ReplyDeleteBest when they get soft and well broke in. Like a favorite hat, having an old friend.
ReplyDeleteI see no button down...
ReplyDeleteOnly one pocket? Where do you keep your gummi bears?

Have this exact shirt. Had business logo embroidered on side with no pocket. Love them!
ReplyDelete100% cotton.
ReplyDeleteCotton kills. Because sweat + freeze = dead.
Worthless in winter, unless you're already indoors. With a fire built.
Hahaha! Wear this shirt and DIE! It's a killer!
