Are you guys talking about this shirt?
Hi,
On my DVD (51m 5s to 51m 28s) the shirt is mainly black with some white and pink thrown in (almost tie-dye effect). I took some pics with my phone and I'll try and upload. In fact, how do I upload so that the pics appear in the body of the post?
I'll also take this moment to ask you guys for some summary info on this, and similar, Fight Club threads.
1) Is anyone selling the maple leaf, stars, tight black and silver/grey tee with zip at v neck? I saw a few posts saying they're coming, and a few have tackled the maple leaf, but I've no idea when or for how much. I'm only looking at copies, where there's enough for everyone, not bidding against all for just the one shirt.
Mainly though I want the white shirt with the black - which he wears when he has the fight with Norton in the pub parking lot.
2) The retro Tyler jacket - is there a key to getting the look? By this I mean the jacket looks and thin in the film, almost like a shirt, yet the replicas I'm seeing appear fairly bulky and dominant on the wearer.
Eg: in the film, the jacket seems to hang open a lot, exposing a fair amount of chest (and Soulinertia's pic above does the same) yet in the ads and pics of guys here, the jacket often covers most of the chest and dominating the wearer instead of vice versa. Likewise, the sleeves hug Brad's arms yet the replicas seem to be fairly loose on the arm.
Is it that the jacket just needs breaking in to be more flexible and to relax? Is it that Brad wore a size too small/everyone else is wearing a size too big?
3) I'm seeing a lot of Fight Club aviator shades (I like them a lot) but I'm sure he only wore the OPs in the film, can someone clarify?

Do you plan on replicating this too Soulinertia?
Re: Shirt - not t shirt
you can get some really good stuff on etsy, they always have good quality shirts (especially in the 70s vintage area) and i actually got an original shirt same as the one tyler wears the first time he and the 'jack' fight in the bar parking lot
Hi guys,
Any idea how to get shirts with the big collars so they can go outisde the jacket as in:
Here and here?
I assumed you'd have to go to a retro shop and pay extortionate fees like at Dress That Man but as I see women doing this all the time I am hoping you don't have to go to such extremes.
Then again, I love all Tyler's shirts and the whole 70s thing so maybe I am looking at specialist shops and therefore specialist price tags after all
Thanks.

actually the shirt is more reddish i have an original from the same company but the whole landscaping is slightly different from the one tyler wears. but the fit is exactly the same with the high waisted crop for the shirt and the collar separation is spot on i'd be willing to sell it since i've had it for a longgg time but haven't worn it often it was a rare find too lol

Can you post pics? And size info?
Wow. I can honestly tell you that is serious mindf**king! It looks black/dark blue to me. You obviously know your stuff so I'll take your word for it but I just can't get my head around it.
Ruste, thanks for the Etsy link. I really want that shirt from the fight in the parking lot!

Here are the pics I took. There's a glow to them as they were taken as the DVD was playing but the colouring of the clothes seems pretty much spot on and as you can see, mainly black.
So you see why I so confused when you say it's a pink shirt!
Wow.
Not as good as when it looked black but I still really want a copy!
Those photos also show Brad's jacket really clearly - which none of the general pics do. Like I said in an earlier post, Brad's jacket seems to hang open a lot, exposing a fair amount of chest (Soulinertia's pic does the same) yet in the replica ads and pics of guys on this site, the jacket often covers most of the chest and dominate the wearer.
The replica jackets don't seem to "hang" off the person's frame like in the above pics. They look heavy whilst in the film Brad's seems light and very pliable. Is it that Brad wore a size too small and everyone else is wearing a size too big? Or it something else?
Cheers!

To clarify
Look at the way the jackets hang in these ads: ONE and TWO
And then compare to the pics you and Sol supplied. Your pics show the jacket seeming to "hang" - even fall away from the body - exposing the chest and appearing lightweight and easy to move about it in - whilst the rest don't.
I do love the look of the Heron, a nice deep red as it appears in the film. Can anyone vouch for it? My concern is that it's bulky (looking at the arms):
