Dress-up clothes for small boys haven’t changed much over the years, leaving us today with essentially the same shirts and ties our grandfathers wore. Enter Fat Tie, a Los Angeles-based company that aims to give young boys a fresh alternative with a comfortable feel and a hip sense of style. Available in both short- and long-sleeved versions, Fat Tie shirts are prewashed and preshrunk soft cotton t-shirts with a bold, tie-like applique sewn on the front. No more struggling to squeeze junior into a multipiece ensemble; instead, he can go from playground to dinner with maybe just a hand-washing in between. Sizes range from 12 months to 5T; pricing is USD 37. Who would have thought there was still room for innovation in the world of children’s clothing? Then again, who wouldn’t have? When it comes to t-shirts, there’s no end to the possibilities. 😉 (Related: Hubwear flight route t-shirts — T-shirts that talk code.) Spotted by: Mrs. April B.
