It's been a while since I saw one of these, but there was a period in perhaps the 90s or early aughts when I saw shirts with both tags. In fact, I remember having a fight with a buyer I sold one to, who thought it was some kind of scam. A guy I knew back then who had a consignment store in Boston said it was during a period when Kiton was scaling rapidly and couldn't keep up with the demand. For a short time, Borrelli made shirts for them until they got their orders caught up. No idea whether that's true, but it has a hint of possibility about it . . .

I love how this keeps developing. It's what makes SF great.

Here's that Stuart Lake rando sweater.

Thicc boi.

If the sleeves weren't as short, I'd keep it.

That shirt is something some stupid, fat, ignorant American, that has never even been to San Fransisco, would wear. Not a Brit who's only been here a few months. :p Also did you thrift it? Or just posting a picture of it. Sorry, sometimes humor doesn't translate well online.

It was a Google image. Saw something about what makes SF great (referring to StyFo)

I’d never thrift that!

Also, I'll fight anyone who talks sh!t on Chicago. One of the greatest cities in the world. People who have never even been there seem to 100% of the time have a less than favorable opinion of it. I'm always more than happy to correct them.
Absolutely, incredible place. I went back to visit this winter for the first time in many years and it was just as good as I remembered.

Nah the avg fat ignorant American would rather see SF burn to the ground. This is definitely an orange county republican or someone who lives in CA.
