Blue > Khaki.

Sorry, but it's true. The design may have fit better on Khaki, but light blue is a much more fashionable color than Khaki. I hate khaki, plain and simple.

Just be glad it wasn't printed on heather gray.

I think that shirt isn't all that great. Don't see why everyone loves it. ...Along with Take a Hike.



I just don't get it.

Remember the SARS incident that killed millions worldwide? That's what this is referring to.

i don't get the take a hike worshippers either...



SARS only killed in the thousands (at least officially- china and korea may have lied to keep it calm)

it's sexy and simple...but it would work better on natural, khaki, pink or even yellow (aye, but would that be too 'asian'?)

i'm buying one anyway, 'cause my wife wants it...

Still think it's kindof boring.

Outbreak Girl just appeals to me for some reason.



I never understood Take A Hike. And I still don't understand designs like Lemuria.

Lemuria is just kinda artsy, so it's cool. But take a hike...whatev. But, back to the question at hand, I think this works very well on blue. Of course, I'm not much of a fan of khaki in the first place.

I agree with symmertrical. And I agree with pinkerton that light blue is far superior to khaki. I've seen Khaki mostly on colorless or designs lacking color (God and Dog, Who Fucking Cares, My Pet Rhino, Mourning Girl, Ah Munna Eat Choo, etc.), and Khaki just makes each design look plain and bland. For simple, colorless designs, light blue adds more intrigue to the shirt.



However- heather grey: Heather grey looks great when it's combined with colorful designs. Outbreak Girl would look terrible on grey, but when combined with designs like You Sank My Battleship, Pandamonium, Bleeding Sun Remix, Elastic Band Gun, etc., it makes each color look incredibly sharp. Also, black looks clearer on heather grey than on khaki.

(i tottaly agree with most of what was said above)



personally, i love, love, love this color and is the only reason i am considering buying it because i think the design works well on the blue. i know i probabbly would have drooled over the design but never considered buying in khaki. yuck.
