“Or order this new one and beat it up yourself.” if this lets you know where my brain is, I first read this as “beat yourself up” i.e. for not getting a secondhand shirt 🤣

This is a great post.

Those (men's) rollneck sweaters show up at your better goodwills regularly; I don't think the guys that got them as gifts ever wore them (same with the wool)

(Also appreciate your use of the term button-up)

If I wear my 1986 Gap rugby shit, will I look cool or just old?

The JCrew catalogs from the 90s were chef’s kiss. Such a vibe.

Such a throwback! I miss '90s styles sometimes because it was so comfy. Quirky, but comfy.

Totally, you're right. Anyway I always carry a light sweater or scarf etc because of A/C so it could work. I'm in love with a brand designed in Miami made in Peru with the most delicious, softest, coziest 100% Pima cotton. Washes beautifully. I seldom take it off.

Only in seeing the header image did I feel a deep yearning for all the oversized pocket tees I had five years ago…
