Cap'n Pete Straw Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 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.... "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do... "He's a pirate dancer, His dances are funny... 'Cuz he's only got one shoe! Ahhrrr!"
Mad Matt Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 I've got an 8-inch pyrate it would fit on... You will be flogged. And God willing, come morning, you will be flogged some more.
hurricane Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 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. -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Captain Tito Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 IM also has a 3rd shirt thats good and pyratey but I can't remember its proper name, and I think its more expensive than the swashbuckler. They never seem to have any of them on their sales. <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>Have Parrot Bay, will travel. WILL SHARE TOO!!!</span>

Kendra The Sea Maid Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 What woman is looking at the clothes? I have to agree with Rumba 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!!

Cap'n Pete Straw Posted December 27, 2005 Author Posted December 27, 2005 I must be taking yer quotes wrong...cuz my mind just went somewheres else... 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.

callenish gunner Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 lad i've looked at the poofy pirate shirt and it looks ok but i really like the leather waistcoat they show as accompaniment to it
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted December 28, 2005 Author Posted December 28, 2005 AWESONE!! I did not even notice that until you pointed it out. Cool. I want one of those, too.
