Clothes Make The Man

But if the title is true, then what the hell am I besides awesome?  I mean among my valuebles, I value most my hilarious t-shirt collection.  Not all our funny but at least I try to be cool, vintage or unique. 

So I got two new recent additions since I am a Halo and RvB fan. 

Bad ass space Marine. 

Now let's see what job I have

PELICAN PILOT??  HELL NO!  THOSE THINGS CRASH LIKE EVERY
10 MINUTES IN HALO!!!!

So I got this little diddy at Target by accident.  It was among a Halo: Reach bundle accessory gift pack.  I'm not normally up for this shit but I was in a bit of a good mood so I decided why not?  I was still waiting for my RvB shirt in the mail so I couldn't resist.  It came in an action figure package which means it was sealed up like in plastic which was a bit annoying since I couldn't open it up and try it on but luckily the generous customer return policy at Target was accomedating enough for me if it didn't turn out well.  The reason is that I'm an adult small and I'm more along the lines of form fitting clothes for my shirts.  Plus I wans't thrilled with the design intially but for $9.00 I said what the hey.  I plopped down money and off I went.


I got home and was really surprised at how cool the shirt looked.  It was something straight out of a USMC or ARMY shirt with its military green shade and letters on it.  Plus the UNSC logo was pretty bad ass and after trying it on and breaking it in, I was sold.  I mean the thing looked damn good too on me and I liked how it contoured to my shape.  Plus I always support my fictional space military since they protect me from all the worst alien threats imagined.

Sith Stank Asses


Because if they dont fight alien menaces, who will? 



Oh.  Makes sense


So yes.  The shirt broke in nicely as a small and really was fully comfortable.  It's full cotton by Gildan shirt company and is preshrnk.  Great breatheabilty to it and comfortable as all hell.  It's a bit loose, but slightly so it's made for comfort and really really nice.  I just hope someone doesn't ask if I served.  Those things get awkward although I'm sure people not familiar with Halo or that don't pay attention will probably think it's a college.

It's true.
Then FINALLY after waiting several days I got my Simmons "I Hate The Bands That You Like" shirt.  I loved the maroon color and the "I Like Me" Caboose shirt kicked ass and was probably one of the best fitting shirts I have.  But problem: The new Simmons shirt is a new company.  Caboose is Jerzees shirt company.  This new one is M&O shirt company.  Damn you Roosterteeh you cockbites!!!  But once I tried it on, it was really pleasant.  Comfortable as all hell and not to mention a great fitting shirt.  The neck on both the UNSC shirt and the Simmons shirt were both a tad bit tight but once it broke in, it was really super comfortable.  The Simmons shirt is alittle thicker then the UNSC shirt but it's not too bad at all.  Still has great breathability and is also made of pre shrunk cotton so score. 

The Simmons Maroon shirt was $16.95 so not bad at all but with shipping and handling it was 5 bucks more.  Still worth it. 

The UNSC shirt was the best deal ever since it's usually like 16 to 19 dollars.  Target Win!






Next up are Deadpool shirts.  I need to get one but so far most are pretty lack luster.  I have to go to the unofficial ones for cool designs.  Fail Marvel.  Fail again.  However the unofficial ones are pretty cool.  But expensive.  More news on this later
