A . I LOOKED LIKE
WILTED WEED
Before I began wearing a Hanes Undershirt on
warm days, I used to look like a dishrag by after
noon. I felt clammy and uncomfortable, too.
Now, a cool Hanes Undershirt takes the wet out
of sweat. Its soft, absorbent knit rests on my chest
as lightly as a breeze but blots up the perspiration.
Evaporation is even and rapid. I feel as cool as a sail
on a boat. And my top-shirt stays a whole lot neater.
Gentlemen, Hanes Shirts are knit to fit snug
across your chest and back with a trim, elastic feather
touch. And they have plenty of length to tuck down
inside your shorts without creeping up to wad at
your waist.
For matched comfort, wear them with Hanes
Crotch-Guard Sports or Shorts or with Hanes
broadcloth Shorts. Have your Hanes Dealer show
you these comfortable garments today.
