My name is Chas Horvath and I'm a Mountain Lakes High School class of 1976 graduate. Nostalgia drove me to produce a run of the now antique iconic shirts which were required for men's gym class in the 1960s-1980s. 231 shirts were ordered from 117 people!!! The cost per shirt cost was much lower than expected due to the volume and I/we were able to donate $700 to MLHS.
Requests for the shirts continue to come in and I'm opening a second run of the shirts. This run will also include a women's cut option (read here for an issue with the color of the women's cut shirts).
The shirts have been publicised via Facebook. It's clear as word spreads that many are interested in the shirts who are not on Facebook. Please pass news of this onto fellow Lakers who may not be on Facebook!
The best picture I have of the original shirt is below, worn by 1976 classmate Roy Harrison. Apologies to Roy who had no idea he'd be the model for this endeavor.
