The Pocket T-shirt: Update!

Styling of The Rite Stuff Pocket T-shirt and Heracles shirt courtesy of myself. (Guest starring: John Lofgren Champion sneakers, the best!) Long time no see, boys and girls! I've been busy with work stuff and waiting; currently, I'm waiting for the second sample of the pocket T-shirt. The first one was very nice, but the collar was looser than I would like.

The Rite Stuff 'Harvester' ecru long-sleeve henley sample

Hello again ladies and gents, I'm back with something big: the first sample of The Rite Stuff 'Harvester' long-sleeve henley in ecru fabric!
