Fit to a Tee

Last summer, with the Trumpian threats to Canadian sovereignty abounding, patriotism and messaging were expressed in various ways. Myriad tee-shirts expressed myriads of sentiments, or at least the same sentiment in myriads of ways. I wished to display my own patriotism in an understated and tasteful way, so I purchased one of these ↓ so, of course, I opted for the shirt on the bottom right with the red maple leaves.

I did post a few photos with it on last summer (first photo below), but I don't think that I ever drew attention to it. Now, so you can see it better, I've had Sue take a new photo, the second photo.



Now, go back ↑ and guess which one you think I have now ordered? Don't scroll until you guess. Answer will be revealed below.























If you guessed the goose and maple leaf at the top left, give yourself a cookie.

I have ordered my selection in my size and am waiting for Blackhare to print it. They take their time to fulfill custom orders, but I have a long time to go before I will require short sleeves.

Note: I started the post quite awhile ago before the shirt arrived, so here it is, trying to help my decrepit body to look a little better.


These shirts are rather pricey, but I have never indulged too much in fashion, so I trust that I can be excused these slight excesses.

But

But

I received a notice that they are doing a limited run of this shirt: same as the red maple leaves on black, but now black on red.


And

And

And

I couldn't help but order it. However, I do solemnly swear that any future tees will be plain and cheap — at least for now. That being said, I will likely require a few more because my older tees were meant for the size that I was and not the size that I am.
