Be First to Get Your $110.00 USMC T-shirt

[B-Man2]

Yes , but I bet he never paid $110.00 each for any of them.

I don't care if it was made by the second coming himself, 80 quid for a t-shirt is bloody ridiculous.

It's a T-SHIRT FFS.

 

[ausreenactor]

But he WILL for his next ones....

Just bought the 1st MAR DIV shirt from ELC. Will compare it to an ATF OD shirt when I have it...

Just spent a bit of the Bitcoin profits... no biggie!

One very rarely wears T shirts especially examples with garishly printed messages or logo's emblazoned on them as one finds one's very presence alone is enough to make a statement.
Should one be of a mind to adopt such terribly casual attire one might baulk at the retail price sufficiently to prevent one from purchasing, however that situation is highly unlikely as one has 0 associations with the organisation printed on the garment. With the aforementioned in mind one will simply remain a disciple of the long sleeve, button upTattershall check shirt, tweed hacking jacket, brogues and stout corduroy trousers, attire much better suited to my particular locale.

Good day to you.

A good chunk of my collection relates to the USMC and I have undertaken battlefield tours on Guadalcanal...

The same can be said of buying flying jackets by individuals who have no affiliation to aviation beyond a travel agent booking....

Trevor, enjoy your 1st Div tee!
The old plain USMC tee Gary sent years ago gets worn weekly in and out of the gym and looks amazing.

I’d rather design my own Tee and then let professional t-shirt shop print it, for not more than 30 Euro

Note to self:

Attempt at subtle British humour fell flat.

Therefore do not post late at night / wee hours of the morning as prescription cancer drugs in system may affect performance.

Therefore try another approach

Personally speaking...
No I wouldn't pay that sort of money for a printed T shirt - even if it's a niche design, the pricing is bollocks. Further, I feel people are quite within their right to post that in their opinion the pricing is taking the piss somewhat.

I rarely wear T shirts anyway and when I do it is to add a layer under an ordinary shirt. Further, I'm quite happy to wear repro flight jackets of a design worn by what is essentially a foreign ally as they essentially often suit my needs practically - and as I have been a member of more than one associated organisation for many years, and have had many friends who served in same, I feel comfortable doing so.

What else? No, I think that's it.

Hovered over the cart button many times... Today felt like the day to buy.....

Its the fabric and construction of the garment.... not the design that costs.....

Worked for me.

Unpacked my ELC 1st Mar Div T-shirt after lunch today. Got as far as opening the box and had to cease and desist. Can't damage the packaging, which is probably worth 20 quid itself....

Will get pics!

This shirt will hold its value better than Bitcoin at present. Doubling down though and surge buying in the dip!

 

[ausreenactor]

Kicked in the excess cash into Cardano and Ethereum before pay day and remembered the shirt!

Packaging is impressive.

Calendar is a welcome bonus...

Want this t-shirt next!

 

[ausreenactor]

Slept in it first night. Just had a washer and drier session. Softened up a tad. No loose seams. Bold colour on the USMC stencil...

Pretty chuffed.

 

[Grant]

Nice. I just washed my old plain ELC USMC tee for the umpteenth time. It's faded beautifully and still going strong. Can't beat quality.

Will flip through the ELMC catalogue and see what jumps out at me....

I may be able to hook you up with that exact T-shirt for a bit less. Shipped cheaper, too.
(Had to try an emoji again. New skill.)

Sounds too good to be true!
