It’s damn hot outside. Not that we needed the extra reason to walk around shirtless. Whether it’s thirty degrees or ninety, as long as we’ve missed a few meals we’ll create the time and the place to run around topless.
However, even in this summer heat, our obsession with Wet Cement tees is depriving our friends of their favorite explanation for calling us easy.
First of all, the brand had us at “wet.” As most gays surely know us inside and out by now (pun intended), an explanation for why is unnecessary.
But there’s more to love than what is in a name (unless the name is AggrsvTop31), and Wet Cement’s use of organic fabric seals the deal.
Sure, one can go on and on about how the brand straddles the fence (like a few boys we knew in college) and uses both vibrant colors as well as muted tones effectively, but it’s WC’s vintage-feel that has us happily covering up our freshly-waxed chests like we’ve just taken our vows without spontaneously combusting.
The shirts are comfortable, light and modernly designed, and because the tees appear as worn-in as we are on the third day of Folsom, the airbrushed lines around our “abs” are still visible through the fabric. Because we can show-off while still keeping it on, Wet Cement shirts are basically like a Nicorette Patch for gays addicted to going shirtless.
Hey, we’ve got to start somewhere.
