30 years / 30 shirts - day 18

It's a bit rainy again, so another long sleeve shirt today. The basic print - just a picture and a logo - comes with a strong pre-aged look to make the shirt vintage. I picked the shirt up in Japan believing this is an US import - which it is not. Thank Les for letting me know that this is an Japan exclusive.

30 years / 30 shirts - day 17

Did I forget to wear an Indiana Jone shirt today? This was the question I heard most often today. This Japanese shirt with half length arms and a round cut bottom is for sure not the average Indy shirt to get. The print on the front is no give away that the wearer is going for fortune and glory. Only a tiny print on the back below the neck spells it out: "Indiana Jones".

• front: artistic print
• back: small print "Indiana Jones"

30 years / 30 shirts - day 16

The shirt I am wearing today is from the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular in the MGM studios, Florida. This Indiana Jones theme park attraction is an awesome show with professional stuntmen showing off their skills in three classic scenes from Raiders of the Lost Ark. First comes Indy's South American temple experience including a boulder run. Second there is lots of fun and action going on in the streets of Cairo. And the third part features fights and explosions around the flying wing. The shirt keeps the spirit of this spectacular but puts Mickey Mouse in Indy's clothes because this is a Disney attraction after all.

shirt stats:

• type: t-shirt
• color: beige
• front: print of the logo Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular" with Mickey Mouse dressed up as Indiana Jones
• back: small print of symbols for Goofy, Mickey and Donald and the text "Walt Disney World"
• weight: 198 g
• producer: (c) 2003 Lucasfilm Ltd
• vendor: bought in the MGM Studios Florida in February 2005
• cats: no animals were harmed during the making of these picture. they are just not impressed by Mickey Mouse at all.

30 years / 30 shirts - day 15

15th day, half time through the shirts! Today's shirt comes with a high quality print not only in full color but also with a lot of gold metallic color. The print makes good use of the golden color for the Ark, the Golden Idol, the inside of the Holy Grail and for the borders of the antique-style map. I really like this shirt. I did pick it up in Disneyland Paris believing the shirt was an US import - which it is not. Thanks Les for letting me know that this is an Paris exclusive.
