Pirate "puffy" shirt


Recommended Posts

I ran into a guy who wearing the infamous "puffy" shirt as featured on the Seinfeld TV series. He was really surprised that I wanted to know where he got it, as exactly ZERO men ask him where he got the shirt.

Anyway, it is available from International Male, and is called the Ultimate Poets Shirt-- priced at $69.99. Makes a great pirate shirt (which was the running gag of that TV episode), but purests beware: it is a historically non-authentic acetate/rayon blend.

Incidentally, if you purchase the newest Seinfeld boxed DVD set, it comes with a miniature puffy shirt. It would only fit an eight-inch-tall pirate, however.

Also on the International Male website is the Swashbuckler Shirt -- a steal at $44.99.

Anyone looking for last-minute Chrsitmas ideas for me, now you know where to look....

I have the shirt - it looks great. But it is more of a captain look than an ordinary pirate look - it needs equally fancy pants and coat to accent it. It is not period correct in material, but a heavier weave would have made it less elegant in terms of how it looks.

I'd very much enjoy a cup of spiced rum, and your company next to a crackling fire. :)

Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@

What woman is looking at the clothes? :o:o

I have to agree with Rumba :o Did any one happen to catch E entertainments top 20 Fashion dos and don'ts. It said that the puffy sleeve shirt was a a fashion don't, and dosen't look good on anyone. I wanted to raise my hand and say excuse me little miss fashion expert but I pictures that say other wise. BTW the leather pants in the last link don't look have bad either!! ;):rolleyes::o

Yes, I am leaving the pub. I don't know when or if I will come back to this port. I will check in from time to time. Until then:

I must be taking yer quotes wrong...cuz my mind just went somewheres else... :ph34r:

You interpreted the statements correctly (especially since I cannot figure out any OTHER way to interpret them).

But, if you please, back to the Puffy Shirt for just one minute ...

My son gave me one for Xmas. I don't have it yet, as International Male is out of stock... I got a home-made printed coupon from him, and am awaiting delivery.

I'll give you details when it arrives. My nine-inch pirate is simply quivering with excitement. (I wonder what the hell THAT means?)

Okay Callenish and Kendra... back to you guys.
