-
I want to be Artie the Strongest Man in the World from the Adventures of Pete and Pete 90s Nickelodeon show....BUT I can't find a shirt that is anything close HELP! So for many years now I've wanted to go as Artie, the Strongest Man In The World from the Adventures of Pete and Pete. I've got red tights and the glasses all set but I'm having a LOT of trouble locating a shirt that will work. -Shirt should be long-sleeved -Blue and Red alternating stripes would be *ideal*! I've searched all over the web and all the forum discussions or related material links to broken sites/items etc. I really don't want to do a "ghetto" shirt where I take a red shirt and put blue tape in stripes on it or vice versa...I want it to be vintagey like the show. Help me Hivemind!

Answer:

Hmmm, found the perfect shirt but it's for two-year olds. That would give you the tightness you require, but probably wouldn't leave you any room to breathe. http://www.lulasapphire.com/Products/Milibe/Red-Blue-Stripe-Long-Sleeve-T-Shirt-by-Milibe.aspx

The most relevant thing I found on the web was one dude who bought the fabric special and had a seamstress custom make it lol...Don't know if I can go that crazy

Generally, it looks like you'll come up with closer matches if you search for sweaters in those colors than plain shirts. http://clothing.shop.ebay.com/Mens-Clothing-/1059/i.html?_nkw=red+blue+striped+sweater&_catref=1&_fln=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282.

A slightly classier alternative to the blue duct tape could be to sew or glue strips of felt which you can get sheets of at craft stores like Micheals. At least it's still fabric and if you do a good job then hardly noticeable.

Are you a wealthy person of wealth? Lacoste is pretty much a gold mine for stripes. Neither of these are exactly right, and they're both tons of cash, but options: http://shopapparel.lacoste.com/p/Long-Sleeve-Cotton-Cashmere-BiColor-Striped-VNeck-Sweater/B002P8GQYO?intid=ref_dp_vPopover_swatch_B002P8GSCO&selectedColorAsin=B002P8GSCO http://shopapparel.lacoste.com/p/Long-Sleeve-Bar-Striped-Jersey-Rugby/B002P8KP7S

It is very easy to find shirts exactly like this at Target, Walmart, etc., if you are a small person.

I can't seem to find it right now, but this was asked before, 2 or 3 years ago I think. What my one buddy did was buy a white shirt, and color in the stripes with markers. Turned out (surprisingly) pretty good looking.
