Eye of the Tiger
I'm always on the hunt for printed shirts. I found this one at a local vintage clothing shop in the Mission. I love seeing how vintage trends influence contemporary fashion. Tigers were a huge motif this year in menswear - yet this shirt was made in the 1960's. Mega bonus that it has some Asian elements mixed in there as well. Destiny.
$40 later and I was the proud owner of this hidden gem. Dare I say, I have the eye of the tiger when it comes to finding these shirts?
The setback: it was a XXL. However, I was confident my tailor could alter it in the right spots to make it wearable. Still a little baggy, but the flow is a nice nod to the 60's era.
All in, $60. Not bad for a killer vintage shirt and a story.
