Put It Up to Eagle Shirts
men who buy branded makes of
clothes, shoes, hats and underwear
should solve the shirt problem once and
for all.
Instead of buying just a shirt the next time, buy an
Eagle Shirt. Put it up to Eagle Shirts to prove that their
exclusive patterns are better than others. Put it up to
Eagle Shirts to prove that their fit over the shoulders,
around the wrists and waist is nearer our idea of how a
shirt ought to fit. Put it up to Eagle Shirts to prove that
they wear so well your shirt cost per year has been out of
all proportion to your shirt satisfaction.
Money back if you're not satisfied.
