This tee taps into a weird, yet wonderful, niche: combining the lightheartedness of adorable poodles with the profound weight of, well, everything. Honestly, it’s a bit brilliant. You know, like how Monty Python would take the piss out of death in a skit, only you can wear it now. The shirt itself, well, it’s a Gildan 5000 (we’ll get to that) so, a workhorse. Before the shirt craze started, a bunch of bored young folks were taking their dogs to dog shows and thinking up ways to win the blue ribbon; these were people, who, in a flash, could win with a well-placed haircut or a witty phrase. The owners became the stuff of legend when they were suddenly making big bucks with a bunch of poodles.
