I guess even Beach Boys shirts aren't immune to a faltering economy. Add it to the dry cat food I buy going up 40 cents per box in one week, and the gasoline I put in my car going through the roof creeping up every day. Not to mention Burger King taking their side salad off the "dollar value" menu and now charging 1.50 for the same iceberg lettuce and bag of dressing which has been worth one dollar for well over 6 years.

Post by: Mikie on March 05, 2012, 11:57:05 AM Yeah, that shirt (also available from Pendleton and a few other sources) has been talked about on a recent 'shirts" thread. There are also two commemorative Pendleton T-shirts, among other nice T-shirts from other sources. Check out that thread......
That same Beach Boys Pendleton shirt was $75.00 about 3 years ago. This year they put that "50th Anniversary" promo blurb in there and jacked the price up about 10 bucks. Don't get the board shirt, get the original one, it fits much better, unless you're skinny. Title: Re: 50th Anniversary Pendleton Shirt!!! Post by: Aegir on March 06, 2012, 03:19:31 AM I had this shirt a few years ago, then I left it at a friend's house and never saw it again. I've always been meaning to buy a new one and now it's frickin even MORE EXPENSIVE? agh :(

I've always been meaning to buy a new one and now it's frickin even MORE EXPENSIVE? agh :( Unless you're loaded I'd save your money, I think the quality of the brand might be on its way out. I've had this shirt for a little more than a year and two buttons came off. AND both times the thread stayed attached and ripped nice holes in the fabric. Forcing me to sew buttons on again in a slightly off-centered spot. I've basically babied this shirt, doing additional loads of laundry so I can wash it according to the tag's instructions and I've never taken it off like I'm Superman or whatever. It might actually be the single most expensive piece of clothing I own too. Title: Re: 50th Anniversary Pendleton Shirt!!! Post by: Mikie on March 06, 2012, 11:29:48 AM Pendleton shirts will last forever. I've had a bunch of 'em for years and they're still in very good condition. The trick is to always dry-clean them, not wash them, especially in washers with an agitator. And NEVER dry those suckers - they'll shrink like a mofo!

Post by: stack-o-tracks on March 30, 2012, 03:23:46 PM Maybe it's my super-pointy elbows or something.... I wear it a lot, but it's usually under a sweatshirt, so I know it's not from rubbing it on stuff.
