Talk Shirty to Me

LnA T-shirts

Michael Stars steered you through high school. James Perse perked up many a college midterm. And C&C saw you through the summers of ’04 and ’05.

Time for a new kid in your T-shirt drawer. For your consideration: L.A.-based label LnA.

The shirts were inspired by pals Lauren Alexander (“L”) and April Leight’s (“A”) shared obsession with guys’ plain cotton tees. Meant to feel like a feminine version of something you’d steal from your old man, LnA’s versions are super soft, long, and lean, with flattering roomy sleeves.

Custom-dyed styles come in sun-soaked SoCal colors like ocean, sky, and fire. The toughest part is deciding which you like better: the basic crew, easy racer-back, or va-va-voom plunging V-neck.

You’ll figure it out come tee time.
