wait, what? What's the story behind the red chambray? Some limited edition J Crew thing?

no. it's just a red chambray. it got hyped to no end on the j crew thread and other places on the intarwebz, then finally came out and was swooped up instantly.

most people were extremely underwhelmed because they expected the second coming of j. christ and ended up with... a red chambray.

iirc, When it came out, it seemed like the only way to get a red chambray was to throw $200 at it, though. Zissou had to MTM his and offered to make more for SF members.

But what spiritually impoverished kind of life could it be if the most we could aspire to was... a red chambray?

Hopefully this'll redeem me a bit from yesterday's clusterfuck. The shirt is a test shirt from MT, so it is a bit tight on the waist.
