i love this shirt and i think you do too. the color is such a freakishly bright yellow that it creates an invisible arrow pointing straight to the picture that we all know and love. it's really just that simple.
i've tried to take as good of care as possible with this guy. since getting it, some small holes have popped up and the print on the tag has faded away ... but hey, that transfer is still (knock on wood) pristine!
comfort-wise, there's really not much here. unlike the other ched shirts i've come across, which usually feel pretty quality, this one is very thin and cheap. the only reason to ever wear this piece is really just to say, "hey - i'm walking around with farrah fawcett on a loud yellow t-shirt,"
but that's not to take away from its greatness.
as said before, the shirt is manufactured by ched, but due to multiple laundering, the tag has completely faded. i assure you that the brand name is accurate.
which brings me to this week's important tip:

remember to practice safe iron-on washing! wash inside out on a cold and gentle cycle then hang dry. when not in use, be sure to keep the shirt inside-out to prevent the transfer from wearing away. not only will you feel smart, but you'll look it too!
