i am no slave to fashion...
i got these
Hanes Sport Mens Cool DRI Performance Long Sleeve Tshirt (50+ UPF)

on walmart.com ordered online, pick up at store, like $8...
and i love them!

Thx. I'll try it on Amazon see how is the quality.

I got 2 for $18 on Amazon, in the bright orange.  When I first got them I was a bit put off by the way they fit and quality seemed to reflect the price.  But I've been wearing them all summer and grown to like them.  Not sure they'll ever wear out, but I'll get more if they do.

At $9 a piece I think it will be 5 years worth of supply in under a $100.
I can work with that :)

Safety colors are the reason I look like a mime. Well, that and a little white sunblock. I randomly select a shirt I got from some race which are always neon, and pair them with randomly selected boardshorts, which tend to be vehemently patterned. The result ranges from "not so bad" to seriously jarring. Add some compression socks in radical colors and presto--mime.

Hohoho......Christmas came early!

Fits perfectly! Cool sticker too! Need to decide if I should put it on my board or Jeep.

Something just came to mind. I wonder how many times I'll be referred to as Trojan Man? 😆
