Thanks Mindi! I have the wishlist EV sticker too but for some reason, in your picture it looks like a huge HUGE supersized poster-like image of it. Save your extra for your next fund-raiser that you run (or mine?) and auction that sticker off with some of your custom shirts and bring in some mad cash for some great causes!

Since I'm hourglassy the mens shirts make me look like a fat ogre. I have a very defined waist. I need the stretch of womens tees. :(
THIS!
my boobs and hips need a little relief from my waist! which is actually small but I look like a pregnant girl in men's shirts!
Also, maybe we need to start a thread (this one??) to hook each other up with info about the actual fit of the t-shirts. Some sweet girl and I were PMing about the size and shape of our boobs recently (ha!) in the name of getting a good fit. If you aren't comfortable posting that kind of info, maybe you could offer info via PM about your height/size/fit to others.
hey, that was me! lol!
and if this was thrown out there already, i may have missed it...but brand matters too! the PJ20 XL girls fits...a little snug, but not too bad. my EV xl is a little too small right now, so maybe in a few pounds...which is on the agenda anyway but the XL analog shirt...wasnt even gonna happen. exchanged it for a 2XL, waiting to see how that works out.
OP- i think yours looks like it fits quite nice, but that doesnt always mean you feel the most comfortable in something! if it helps with the shirts that are too short, i almost always wear a spaghetti strap top in a fun color, preferably with lace around the botton under all my tshirts. its fun, and helps when they are sometimes shorter than you like!

I can't believe they did a Canadian tour without a TOQUE! Blasphemy.
I would have loved a toque.
I was tempted to buy the Molson Export hat, but I only wear ball caps when I'm playing ball and I wasn't going to buy a $35 hat to get all dirty and sweaty. Although, I would have loved to show my love for PJ while playing ball. I wear toques and beanies all the time, though... and was hoping for a toque.
i totally would have bought a toque, too!

I buy men's small or extra small tees, roll the sleeves up 50's style and wear them as they become skinny fit and are long enough to accomodate my *ahem* boobages.
I also customise t-shirts as many girls have pointed out. It's a pain in the arse to get right but the results are worth it and it becomes a loved piece of clothing for years
I agree with the original post though; women's PJ t-shirts are too short!! I have to wear another top underneath all of mine otherwise they ride up and show the world my bellybutton! :shock:
Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
So I am starting to like 'women's T's'...never used to buy them because I have wide square shoulders.
I have a Coors light ladies shirt and like the fit, so when I was at Alpine, I bought the ladies PJ20 shirt, fits fine...so I got tempted with the Buck shirt...they only had medium, and I was worried about the fit, but bought it anyway, well, it fits good, but you cant see the PJ logo, you just see a buck head charging at you...and the sleeves seem to be more of 'cap' sleeves.
My friend unlost dogs bought a small in the EV whale shirt and it shrank too much for her, so I bought her a large and tried on her small... :? I look like I had the shirt painted on me...and the sleeves come almost to my elbows. I may re-construct it into a tank top.
There really needs to be some standard in the fit/sizing. I'm afraid to get the Analog shirt in a ladies style with all the various comments on the fit. I vote for the longer style too...I don't like the short T's riding up, some seem to be almost like cropped shirts, that style went out on the 80s. So unless PJ decides to make 'off the shoulder mesh muscle shirts' please make the T's longer.
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
I like the t shirt quilt idea. I have a couple women's shirts, from 03.. that don't fit anymore, mostly due to destroying my liver in college. Ooo or even a scarf since I only have a few!

Excellent thread. I don't want to look like Spongebob either. I have way too many spongebobby PJ tees in my closet that I never wear. Don't know why I keep buying a men's size M hoping it'll fit...of course it never does :roll: too big in the waist area and too tight on top...and I'm pretty flat.
The only tee that fits me somewhat ok is the EV Ukulele tour one, which is a women's fit made by American Apparel. I'd love if they would use AA for all their women's tees. They have so many great cuts and fits, including v-necks. Please 10C...We need better fitting women's tees!
yes yessss V-NECK please!!!!!!
Oh yes... DEFINITELY V NECK! Crew neck is just not attractive for women, in general... I'm all about V neck or even more of a scoop neck... crew neck can make you look like your boobs start at your chin!

I agree with this! I would like to feel good wearing a PJ shirt. Not like I'm having a pajama day. I like to wear t shirts if I'm just hanging out around the house but I need PJ shirts that I can wear and feel kinda hot.

When my girlfriend 'borrows' one of my t-shirts, it gets the boob-stretch and it's never the same after that. would be great if they made better fitting women's t-shirts so she wouldn't be tempted to wear mine.
Hee... happy to help I avoid crew cut, ugh, it's just not nice. Also, the mens t-shirts are stiff and hard cotton, they're not soft... along with the fact that I feel like I'm being strangled around my neck!
*chants* V-NECK, V-NECK, V-NECK!!!

when women wear a lot of tees we get that rippling between our boobs, not very attractive :(
mens just make us look like we're wearing a tent. we have to accommodate the 'girls' well then the rest just hangs on us.
Yeah v-neck or scoop would be perfect! my problem too though is the placement of the image, mine get stretched out :(
Well yes... it's a combination of using quality cotton (not too thin and see-through!) and ensuring the right placement of the image... if there is too much stretch in the t-shirt, it not only clings (where you don't want it to) but it distorts the image. Ames uses nice soft cotton in their t-shirts and they don't cling... I hate clinging t-shirts!

Hey girl, what's up? I feel like I know you so well
Would you believe I got my analog shirt and it didn't fit? Even after all of that careful deliberation. It looked like a men's cut shirt, but on smaller scale. Basically a big white square, as wide as it was long. Not hot at all

Agree for sure. Vneck = much better for boobs.
