The Bar Principal No5 T-Shirt in White from Gift Shop, a classic white tee with a small chest print and a large back print, listed at 59 GBP with one of its five sizes in stock. It is worth beginning with the ease, because this garment lets the run say something it could only guess at before. It is worth then reading the chest, and it is worth then stating what it doubles to, which is forty, forty-three, forty-six, forty-nine and fifty-two inches around. It is worth then stating the ease against men's bodies of thirty-seven to forty-five inches, and it is worth then stating it: three, four, five, six, seven. It is worth then stating what that is, which is a straight line gaining one inch per size. It is worth then stating why, which is the part the run can now do without measuring anything: the garment grades by one and a half inches and the body grades by two, so twice the grade less the body grade is one. It is worth then stating what that means for how the run has been working, which is that the ease is not a second measurement at all. It is worth then turning to the house, because this one is not a clothing house. The reference is the Bar Principal No5 T-Shirt. Dongguan Bafinasa Garments Co., Ltd. develops comparable tees on OEM and ODM terms, from fabric and trim development to retail or FBA ready packing. We publish this as a development reference and build your own version of it, and we do not supply the branded original or reproduce anyone else's label.
Key Features
- An ease of three, four, five, six and seven inches, a straight line gaining one per size, and it is exactly what the grade predicts. See the note below

- A sleeve row stepped in quarters of an inch, alternating half and quarter, the first fractional grading in this run. See the note below
- Two rows perfectly even and one alternating, so the run's test for a generated chart does not fire and it can say why. See the note below
- A house that is not a clothing house, a Paris publisher of souvenirs for other people's institutions. See the note below
- A prose paragraph about a bar in the eleventh arrondissement, on a page for a shirt. See the note below
- New for AW26 in the prose, a claim with an expiry date that nothing on the page will remove. See the note below
- One of five sizes in stock, and the one is the middle size, against three of five and five of five on two garments in the same batch. See the note below

Size Chart as Published by the Reference
| Size | Pit to Pit (in) | Sleeve (in) | Length (in) |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | 20 in | 8.5 in | 26.5 in |
| M | 21.5 in | 9 in | 27 in |
| L | 23 in | 9.25 in | 27.5 in |

The pit to pit figures are flat half measures, doubling to 40, 43, 46, 49 and 52 in around. Against men's bodies of roughly 37 to 45 in at the chest, the ease runs about 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 in, so it rises by exactly one inch at every step. Note what produces that, because the run can now say it without measuring: the garment grades by one and a half inches and the body grades by two, so twice the grade less the body grade is one, and the ease gains one inch per size necessarily. Note what that means for the run's own arithmetic: the ease is not a second measurement, it is the grade restated, and it should be published as what the grade does and not as a property of the garment. Note the sleeve row, which steps half an inch, then a quarter, then a half, then a quarter, and note what a quarter of an inch is in any other unit: six point three five millimetres, which is round in none of them. Note the three rows, two of them constant and one alternating, and note what that does to the run's test for a generated chart: it does not fire, because the test needed all three rows to be perfect. Note the body table, which is men's of 37 to 45 in. Our proposal below publishes the fabric weight, the print method and dimensions for both prints, the sleeve and length measurement points, a drying instruction, the grading rule, and a stock line for every size.

Occasions and Styling
Suits everyday wear, casual dressing, weekends and layering. A printed white tee works with denim, shorts or tailoring, and it carries a shirt or a jacket over it.
Production and Quality Control
The reference publishes three measurements for all five sizes, states one fibre at full share in two places that agree, names its fit, its neck and its print, gives a code, gives a washing instruction with an orientation and an iron condition, and names its country of manufacture, and it carries five photographs and four bullets. It gives no fabric weight, no sleeve measurement point, no shoulder width, no waist, no hip, no hem, no neck width, drop or rib depth, no print method or print dimensions for either print, no washing temperature as a number, no cycle, no drying instruction of any kind, no certification, no model, no size conversion and no shrinkage figure, and one of five sizes is in stock. Three things follow: an ease that walks by exactly one inch per size and is fully predicted by the grade, which is the third garment in a row where the run's formula holds; a sleeve row graded in quarters of an inch, alternating half and quarter, which is the first fractional grading in this run; and a house that is not a clothing house, so the prose on this page describes a bar.
Three, four, five, six, seven, and that is the first thing, and it is worth saying how the run got there before saying what it means. It is worth then stating how: the chest doubles to 40, 43, 46, 49 and 52, and men's bodies of 37 to 45 leave the difference. It is worth then stating what the shape is, which is a straight line gaining one inch per size. It is worth then stating why, which is the part that matters: the garment grades by one and a half and the body grades by two, and twice one and a half less two is one. It is worth then stating what the run did to get this number, which is measure eleven things and subtract, and what it needed, which is the grade alone. It is worth then stating what follows, which is uncomfortable: the ease table it has been publishing on every garment is not a second measurement, it is the first one restated. It is worth then stating what it should do, which is keep publishing it and say what it is. It is worth then turning to the sleeve. It is worth then stating its steps, which are half, quarter, half, quarter, and it is worth then stating what a quarter of an inch is in centimetres, which is nought point six three five, and in millimetres, which is six point three five, and that it is round in neither. It is worth then stating what that makes this row: not a centimetre series and not a clean inch series, but a fractional one.
Gift Shop, and that is the third thing, and it is worth saying what the run has assumed about the house paragraph. It is worth then stating what it assumed, which is that the paragraph tells you who makes the garment. It is worth then reading this one: the publishing house for souvenirs from the most beautiful institutions in Paris. It is worth then stating what that is, which is a publisher, and what it publishes, which is souvenirs for other people's places. It is worth then stating where the prose goes next, which is to a bar in the eleventh arrondissement and its cocktails and its natural wines. It is worth then stating how many words that is and how many describe the shirt, and the run should say: more words for the bar than for the garment. It is worth then stating what follows for the run's own write-up, which is that for this garment the developable thing is the print and the garment is a blank. It is worth then closing on the season. It is worth then reading it: New for AW26. It is worth then stating what kind of claim that is, which is a claim about time, and it is worth then stating what will happen to it, which is that it will be false in a year and nothing on the page will change.
