Funny clothes

Do you have any amusing items of clothing? Perhaps a sardonic logo on a T-shirt? Or a hilarious hat?

As child I owned a hilarious peaked cap with two hands that clapped when you pulled the string. Yes, as funny as it sounds :|

I've mentioned in an equally exciting thread elsewhere that when I was younger, I used to collect Hard Rock Cafe t-shirts from around the world and used a fabric marker paint to write the word 'F**k' just above the 'Hard Rock Cafe' logo. I also had a Blue Peter hat and was often surprised by how British people thought it was a rare, collectible item. It's been years since I've a bought a new second-hand dress.

I've got loads of t-shirts with pictures or whatever on them.

None off them are supposed to be funny though. funny t-shirts just aren't.

But surely funny hats are even less?
I thought the T shirt still had some currency.

Would you all differentiate between funny and novelty? I've seen some Ts with pretty funny illustrations on, the T shirt in this case is a just a joke vessel, but I think if you go for the novelty side of things then this can be a dangerous and demeaning path.

Just remembered this similarly themed thread:

Not that many years ago I had a pair of tartan tights. They must have been funny because everybody sniggered when I wore them. Eventually I donated them for the drama club panto. Actually a lot of my cast-offs end up in panto. Teary

Oh no they dont! Pleased

I've never heard of a Blue Peter hat; I assume that they hadn't either.
