Details Magazine: The Return of the Graphic Tee?

Details Magazine: The Return of the Graphic Tee

Sometimes I think Details Magazine just publishes stuff to make people roll their eyes.  This time they claim that the Graphic T-Shirt might once again become the go-to choice for style conscious men.  From Details.com:

Then the first t-shirt they show you is a $69 rainbow lightning bolt tee.  I’m failing to see the make-under.  It only gets worse after that, with slide #5 being a $185 Dior t-shirt.  There are some affordable options like this $20 tee from The Gap, but the question remains:  Is the Graphic Tee back?  And what’s the superior casual shirt for warm weather short sleeve style?  A graphic tee?  A plain tee?

The correct answer is a well fitting plain polo.  (Below: Express Signature Polo – $34.50)

$34.50 for one, or two for $51.75
