    Date? Men\'s ORANGE (jail?) uniform shirt

    This shirt is bright clear true orange and is a bugger to shoot an accurate color of.
    It has a elastic loop/ button closure under the neck.
    Kind of a bowling style camp shirt.
    The orange makes me think jail?

    Must have been a uniform as the label (which when I tried to enlarge was totally blurry) has a little man with a hat on.
    Label reads
    65% dacron polyester/35% combed cotton
    Mardac
    Poplin
    Permanant Press
    M...............(a place to write your name)
    washing instructions are spelled out on the back of the label but no washing symbols
    There was a fabric label above the label that you just see remnants of as it is shredded
    Shirt apprears unused.
    Are guys doing the ORANGE thing too?
    Any ideas on a date?
    Thanks
    Karen

    oh yes. I searched for Mardac all over and found nada.

    Thats pretty cool. Don't know if the guys are into orangina or not. Construction worker maybe. You know the six pack ab guy that takes the shirt off in the hot sun and has a nice tanned back.

    Oh.... I better go now.

    men.

    Perhaps this is a road crew workshirt? The state workers who maintain the sides of the road landscaping, picking up trash etc. here wear bright orange shirts and pants.
