Have you seen this item somewhere before?
An ode to the Moustache and the too snug navy shirt of smugness... otherwise known as:
'Just how much stuff did Evans snaffle from the Endeavour wardrobe'
I'll start by saying I may be mistaken but in my recent *cough* scientific analysis *cough* of potential photos for use on Moustache Monday and whilst perusing the posts from yesterday my spidey senses starting tingling at the incredible likeness of this snug navy shirt...
To one of our most lusted after admired items of the Endeavour wardrobe.. the too snug navy shirt of smugness
I can't be certain but they are certainly similar in colour, sheen and ummm 'fit'...
Just for completeness and further checking/analysis... here are a few more views of the snug navy shirt (definitely not just gratuitous posting)
This one doesn't even have the tache but I don't care...
And another comparator from Manor... mainly to analyse the.... ummmm... fit...
I fully accept that there are lots of navy shirts and that it may not be the same one but I think it deserves some continued analysis..
