The neck opening is the issue not the bacon fix. Attached is what everyone is complaining about. The green is also a bigger size.

And the material is no where close to the skittles tee material.

Sorry didn't mean to quote you.

Regarding the tee conpostion, stinks they changed it to 100% cotton, but some of their 100% cotton tees are great. Examples: skittles tee, slate anti expo (recycled cotton), mr p brushed cotton. They just messed up the choice here.

The neck looks way better than before. The stitching is re-inforced, the ribbing also looks better. The old tees were prone to baconing due to the stretch in the ribbing being poor and the stitching of the collar coming undone. This actually looks like it will stay in place.

My point is we got the point. JE barely checks this and doesn't comment on here. If you want to make a point hit up their CS and voice your complaints, even so the SF community is a small portion of their customers at this point (they already gave up on us), I don't think they are hurting based on what we think. Their sh*t will still sell, once it's on sale everyone will be like, "can't believe I slept on the new AE tees in the seasonal colors, material is lit AF"

Edit: I think their stockists carrying or not carrying items, hurts them more than us

This discussion is why we need to move this forum to Reddit, we need threads for the particular items, so it doesn't get clogged and if you're interested on something you can read about it. The nonsense is now jumbled with true discussion

Well. Aside from the all the 100% cotton/Anti Expo talk I'm getting more and more stoked for this season. Being honest, I wasn't excited at all after watching the runway show but I think there are going to be some major gems in the collection.

Just booked a 26 hour flight and realized I have no sweatpants that fit anymore. Bit the bullet on the pile sweats. Seems like everyone was happy with them
pile sweats should be nice. I have a pair of FoG sweats with zippers on the front, back, and legs.... a huge hassle while flying abroad or without TSA precheck.

My take on the new anti expo was really more of a review rather than Je making things right. Some anti expo tee won't make or break my wardrobe. I think it all comes down to how you like things too. As someone skinny, I like my tees to drape and fit a certain way. The ss anti expo isn't perfect but it works for the way I want it.

Plenty of pics of these so not really adding much. They pair nicely with the rusty mr porter pair too.

Thanks. It's the charcoal. The summer weight wears real nice. The fabric is perfect for the edges to roll with wear. Neck has the bacon issue but I kind of works
I like the anti expo as well, I just wish my torso was longer. Been meaning to cut mine.

I agree with the bacon issue, I think it's not intended but it is fitting for a shirt that is beat up with raw hems. Looks more "effortless"

If you're wearing distressed denim, a little bacon collar doesn't look off
