The story behind a hilarious Fenland t-shirt has been revealed, unusually, as originating in the national scooter scene and the printed logo has become an iconic part of it. The t-shirt was spotted in a shop window in Whittlesey and quickly began garnering attention online. Terry Vine, 40, runs a scooter club called the Flatlanders based in - where else - the Fens and they have been around since March 2017. He first saw a six-fingered t-shirt about five years ago and thought it was hilarious, and got it re-printed with the slogan on the back. Since then, the Flatlanders Scooter Club have attended hundreds of scootering rallies across the UK on their lambrettas and vespas, and some as far as France and the Netherlands. He said: “Our shirts are never missed and we stand out from the crowd. “We’re very well known because of the hand.” Due to the popularity of the t-shirts, Terry has gotten even more merch made, including some six-fingered hoodies, key rings, … [Read more...] about The story behind ‘I’m from Fenland gimmie six’ t-shirt

Best designer T-shirts for women
Like it or loathe it, you can’t underestimate the staying power of the designer logo. We’re in the thick of a consumer world laden with logo-mania, where the humble T-shirt can be deemed a luxury signifier and designer collectible.

Tips for choosing the perfect summer T-shirt
If you are anything like me, you’ll treat the T-shirts in your wardrobe as an afterthought. Whether you’re committed to all things style-centric or couldn’t care less about the contents of your wardrobe, there are much more exciting things to consider first when it comes to clothing; sleek coats, sharp suits, luxe sneakers.
