One Chip, One Chair

Description

In 1982 Jack Straus was down to almost nothing at the World Series, stood up, and found a single chip that had been sitting under his napkin. He played it back into a win. The phrase that came out of that night — all you need is a chip and a chair — is the most quoted line in poker, and the only piece of optimism the game reliably rewards.

Set across the chest with the 89s monogram beneath. Printed on a garment-dyed blank: the dye goes in after the shirt is sewn, so the colour sits slightly uneven along the seams and softens with washing instead of going patchy at the shoulders.

Three colours. Pepper is a warm charcoal with brown in it. Black is a true black, not a washed one. Flo Blue is a faded indigo that reads almost grey under a card room light.

The spec, in full

• Double-needle armhole, sleeve and bottom hems
• Sizes S to 2XL · blank sourced from Honduras

Three colours here. The rest of our poker t-shirts run to seven, on the same blank.

Printed after you order it. Nothing about this shirt exists until you buy it.
