"Pockets have been incorporated in clothing for more than 500 years, but adding them to the t shirt happened much more recently. Chest pockets on t shirts became common in the 1950s and 1960s as a result of the decline of the waistcoat and because more and more people were wearing t shirts as outerwear. The chest pocket provided a convenient location to store cigarettes, pens, and other small items." "In 1955, James Dean wore a plain white t shirt with a pocket in Rebel Without a Cause. Don Johnson renewed the love for this simple top in the mid-1980s when he wore one under his Armani suit in Miami Vice." "While pocket t shirts are available for both men and women, men’s styles are the most popular and tend to have pockets that are more functionally sized than those found on women’s t shirts." I would consider this pocket to be functionally sized. Feminist, equal rights for women, anti-sexist pocket shirt. Excelllent condition Bundle with other items in my closet for a 15% discount!
