I just couldn't resist the temptation!

I was out shopping a few days ago and came across this T-shirt. As someone mentioned the other day, it was sorta' like Flip Wilson said, "The Devil made me do it!"

Love it too! I was going to try and order myself one...and Otis too, but Otis declined. I asked why? He said ....."I never cared."

Regards!

Bit like the T-shirt I bought decades ago at a county fair in Boise when I was over there working for HP:-
- the Front " Where the hell's Idaho?"
- the Back "Who the hell cares!"

And I'm sure there are many more like that around!

There are lots of T shirts I would buy if I could get ones that fit. While they may fit when new, after a wash or two, they are anywhere from an inch to two too short. The curse of being taller than average.

PS: I don't like most T-shirts because they don't have breast pockets, which I use a lot - and this one didn't, but I bought it anyway 'cause I liked it anyway (I'm like that!), and I wore it a few times in the UK as it got a lot of laughs.

Then it's like wearing a tent, and even buying larger doesn't guarantee it will be longer, just larger. I have the same problem with regular shirts too, but you can often find them in "tall" sizes. Duluth Trading Company sells some called "Longtail" shirts, to fix "Plumbers butt" that are 3" longer and are perfect.

Get someone to alter a tent to fit you?

Look online for Netherlands-based suppliers as the Dutch are reputedly some of the tallest people around (that's certainly true in Europe).

So turn a $15 dollar T shirt into a $60 one? No thanks!

Finding T shirts that fit isn't much of a problem. Finding ones that have sayings on them is, as they tend to only use the generic size model. One exception are Harley Davidson shirts which tend to be longer.

That's why I suggested the Dutch - they are often much taller without being fat!

Carhartt has tall T's that are pretty good for us tall guys and also pockets but don't come with slogans across the front and back.
