The Medium That Wasn’t

I had a vibrant vision of my future, and it involved this red vintage Marine Corps sweatshirt. Sized Medium, it seemingly would be roomy and quite reliable, paired with anything, pulled over everything.

The future has now come, and it’s much more grim than I’d pictured. The shirt’s tag indeed says Medium, but its fit is even shy of Small. It’s too tight to wear over an oxford, too short to wear solo (or otherwise my belly’s button would show.) A thin tanktop underneath has become my only option and its doubtful I’ll wear it with any real regularity.

So, men – after three attempts at military sweatshirt victory I’m surrendering here, today, exhausted.
