I just noticed my RRL solid t-shirt doesn't have side seams. Is it more expensive to manufacture shirts in this way? I haven't seen any other Polo t's with this feature. Pretty cool.

It's called tube-body construction, which is generally more difficult and expensive way to make tees. Basically, they have different looms set up to make different sized tubes for the different size shirts.

Where are you guys ordering RRL from?

The first post has a few links with RRL stuff, but nothing amazing.

Thanks in advance.
