Why it costs what it costs

A printed polo takes a finished blank and puts a logo on the chest. This one is printed as flat panels and then cut and sewn, so the pattern carries over the shoulder and around the placket instead of stopping at a rectangle. It is made after you order it, so nothing here is priced to cover unsold stock.

A fold line down the front would cut the trellis in half, and on a ground this pale you would see the crease before you saw the pattern.

Quarter-turned, there is no centre crease to cut — the pattern stays whole across the front. That is the difference between a shirt with a pattern on it and a pattern made into a shirt.
