If I only buy one item of clothing again in my lifetime ...→[More:]... it will have to be a Three Wolf Moon T-shirt.
"We appreciate humour as much as the next company, but we don't approve of some of the remarks.
"Not everyone can start out at the top and not everyone from our neck of the woods lives in a trailer or cruises Walmart to hook up."
Wow, interesting class perspective there. I'd like to hear more of what they had to say.
In fact, I've seen t-shirts like this most often on hopelessly crunchy-granola folks who would sooner live on wild plants than cut and color their hair. Paired with a sporty fanny pack, they look great at a Gordon Lightfoot show.
Yeah, I don't see the logical connection there either.
Or, "some of the people from our neck of the woods wear the wolf shirt to tapas bars with sustainable bamboo furniture and a cocktail menu that includes lychee nuts and papaya?"
Or, "if one is at the top, obviously one wouldn't want to wear a shirt like this, but it is appropriate to our humble station and so we adorn ourselves in it, as the aristocracy demands?"

Absolutely. I'm 90% sure that my beloved godmother owns, if not this wolf shirt, a very very similar wolf shirt, and pairs it with organic vegan cargo shorts and " " sandals. Ph.D.'d reverend/earth mother personified, so wolf couture is definitely not exclusive to the NASCAR set.
(Organic vegan sandals. I have never asked her, but am assuming so on the basis of plentiful context.)
And, um. I thought I was joking about wolf, or perhaps more properly spirit animal, couture, until... unintentionally ran across this while looking for a nice-looking silk scarf. Zoom for best effect.
