I was chatting with @roseofblack today and she suggested I get the American Apparel Shirt pictured above. She thinks the “sexy belly top” shirt is unique and fashionable; I’d rather jump out of a window than go out wearing that shirt.
Ladies what do you think of this shirt? Guys would you wear it? 😛

I’d tap that.
I like the guy.. not so crazy about the shirt ON the guy. I just can’t see any straight man wearing this – they go shirtless when they want to show off their abs 🙂
as a 25 y/o girl, i find that shirt very ‘lose’ … i like american apparel but some of their stuff is questionable.
Is “lose” the new “fail” or did you mean “loose”?
If you have abs like that you should wear it.
Wasn’t the whole midriff baring top over 15-20 years ago? Are fashion designers so out of ideas that it’s just easier to bring back something old? Creativity has hit an all-time low in the fashion world.
Repeat after me … Flashback is only a movie!!!
This shortie-type shirt was questionable on women … NO man should wear this. Ever. Like, ever-ever.
*shudder*
ROFLMAO….I thought this was a a joke…Oh my gawd! I think I’d laugh my head off if I saw a guy wearing this! Shouldn’t even be worn in the privacy of your own home.
What is the point? If you have a nice body like that, just dont’ wear a shirt! Let the peeps check out your abs!
If you don’t have abs like this…then it would just like a big belly peep show…UGGH!
HAHAHHAA Still laughing at that pic…weird weird weird!
Am i the only one that laughed? I do not think a straight man would enjoy wearing this….Hell even gay people wouldn’t want to go anywhere near that. Even if i had a 6 pack (sadly i only see 2 abs so far :() i wouldn’t wear this. BUT I WOULD wear this if someone offered me a million bucks.
if your alter-ego was the hulk it would sure save some wear and tear on the clothes!
just thinking, we should have a contest, and the winner gets to put what they want on boo and w eal get to see 🙂
Ummmm, the last time I wore a shirt like that, I had hair like Robert Smith, and was wearing skin tight acid wash jeans, a Le Chateau jacket that looked like I’d ripped it off of Mark Holmes from Platinum Blonde and white legwarmers.
And yes, I’m a guy.
Leave the shirt in 1987. I did.
If you got it flaunt it! BUT … it better be worth flaunting! lol
ITS OFFICIAL
BOO IS GAY
I’d like to see this on my GF… not on me.
The body of a guy who works on a pc professionally is definitely not designed for this configuration of torso covering 😛
You needs moar freebies 🙂
Retarded! Lmao!
YES i am no big deal
That shirt is ridiculous!
its my site i can post what i want
hell no!
that’s an 80’s style that should stay in there like Ironhead said. It is a gay/metro-sexual look, and women shouldn’t wear it.
I don’t like it and I would not find it attractive on any man. I agree, it’s very retro…but, really? Ew!
even in the 80’s this would have looked ridiculous……
I don’t like seeing it on a female and it wouldn’t be any more pleasant looking at a male with that type of shirt on. Not to say a nice set of abs isn’t something to look at but really, this looks just terrible and I definately wouldn’t let my son wear it. Flashdance comment was absolutely hillarious!! Sorry Rose, going with the Boo man on this one… it’s a no go vote for me.
horrrendouz
if that style makes a huge comeback i will hide in a hole
lol
Maybe the poor thing couldn’t afford the entire shirt.
UHG! It looks like a t shirt that shrank in the wash!
I would be so embarrassed if my husband wore that shirt…that looks downright laughable!
NOOOoooooo~ My eyes…
Hey Boo … I think that, that shirt would look great with your Chuck Norris Action Jeans!!!!! (*Remember*) 😉
Straight or gay, NO man should wear that tee, unless you are on SNL doing a skit to make the audience laugh hysterically.
It is almost like someone forgot to finish the rest of the shirt 😛
The guy is ok looking but most men out there would never be able to pull off a belly top….
Oh, nooooooooo…please tell me this thing won’t be ‘the thing’ this summer. Looks like the guy raided a 3 year old’s t-shirt drawer. Ugh ugh ugh…no matter whose body is wearing it. I suppose the coordinating bottom would be a Speedo? *shudder shiver gasp gag*.
None of my guy friends (straight or gay) would EVER wear that. Doesn’t matter if you’ve got the body or not or how much you paid them. Fashion ‘trends’ may be cyclical, but this belongs and should forever stay in the 80s. haha.
Haahhah I think I’m the only one who liked it alot……. and yes ofcourse I am a girl.
Im thinking that you must of been pretty bored yesterday Boo. I’ve actually seen a guy wearing a shirt like this in the past few years, he also had the ones where the arms were cut off but the shirt hung so low under the arms you could see his chest and everything. He use to bike by my place all the time and i’d chuckle.
But for you Boo I highly suggest a gold glittery muscle top not this.;)
lol. Can’t see any guy in my family wearing that!
Maybe the poor thing couldn’t afford the entire shirt.
No doubt they’ll want to charge more for less shirt too!
Shania for men! The problem with this shirt is the same thing that was a problem with the bare midriff for women. Shania was built for it. 95% of the people wearing (or not wearing) it weren’t.
Ladies, imagine in your minds: Men with beer guts wearing this shirt! BRRRRRR!
BTW: This shirt has been worn by football players for decades.
WOW…that’a all I can say
Well sexy is in the eye of the beholder. I agree with Sally, a hot muscle tank defined arms, abd are hot, btu missing the pecks and the upper arms doesn’t’ work for me.
My gay friend said even this is too gay for him.
YUCK! isnt this 15 years too late. There is no way this could ever be defined as “bringing sexy back”
No way- for guys-or gals. If I saw a guy wearing this I would think: okay…..did you shrink your laundry or what?
And if were a woman’s top? No way- even if you do have the abs- woman would shoot another woman down wearing that shirt in public…save it for the beach.
LOL…my husband said he wore one in highschool with “NIKE” across the front…when he had great abs…now however, if either of us wore one, we might get mistaken for life preservers…
Must be budget cuts due to the economy. Can’t afford to make the rest of the shirt.
lawl, interesting.
Umm….I’m a guy in decent shape and I would not wear this. I don’t think this model should be wearing it either…look at the lack of abs and mess of hair… Yuck!
I don’t think I’d be caught dead in a shirt like that… even if I was in shape. >.<
I feel dirty just looking at this picture. Like someone else said, “My gay friend said this was too gay for him.” lol, it’s true.
What’s wrong with his belly button?
I think it is FANTASTIC!!! I mean surely us women should get the benefit of a good laugh watching men walk around in those — we get stuck with stiletto’s.. It’s only fair I think.. 🙂
LOL I never said I liked it boo rofl BUT janice dickinsons body guard wears one like that and it says body guard or life guard or something like that across it…they are trying to bring the 80’s back I guess but its still no reason to hate american apparel boo…
Absolutely not, Boo, DON’T WEAR IT. lol.
If my boyfriend wore that with his belly…well, I just don’t want to think of it.
‘lose’ is not necessarily the NEW fail, just an alternative. 🙂 mixing up lose/loose is a pet peeve of mine – i definitely meant ‘lose’ as in.. ‘dude’s cropped shirt FTL’.
No offense to any guy, but if you don’t have the stomach, belly, abs, whatever to pull off a look like that, don’t! I certainly know I don’t so until I do, no thanks!
Off topic… for McDonald’s Monday, I just went yesterday and was informed that Orange Drink has been taken off the menu for Coke Zero… WTF?
Why would they replace a children’s drink with an adult diet soda???
(Being pregnant, and thus craving orange drink and being refused… something is amiss!)
That cannot be a dude’s shirt! However I would wear it if you paid me to.
I think the only good thing about a shirt like that existing for men is that it would cut out a lot of ambiguity in judging a guy. Gay or straight doesn’t matter if the guy’s clothes scream “idiot.”
This was how men wore their shirts in the late 70’s early 80’s. I think it is hilarious!! Now having a 19 year old, I would laugh my a@# off if he wore this…All I can say is ewe.
The guys at my school hike their shirts up like that when they’re doing track conditioning. It’s mildly frightening.
I’m having flashbacks of Bill and Ted lol. Even if you do have the abs for it, it’s a scary look. Shirtless is much sexier.
Nooooooooooooooooo please
this is totals 90s football player in high school!! i love it!!!
Ummmm… No! I think that if you have nice abs, you should take the shirt off and not wear this.
I have one of these shirts so I can look at my fat stomach while I sit in front of the tv drinking beer, eating sour cream & onion chips and watching sports.After a while I retire and my wife rejects my advances, then I fall asleep.
I use to cut off my tees and wear them when snorkelling in Florida
YUCK! Now we’ll be seeing guys’ muffin tops and treasure trails. They’ll probably wear it with their crack showing too.
sujan – and your point is?
Matt, wow, do I ever strive to be more like you!!! 😉
Nap – just ignore sujan, he doesn’t have a point.
sujan is correxct
I would not like to see it even on girls leave alone guys
gayyyyyyyyyyyyy
It’s not even gay – gay men have a far superior taste in fashion to even pick this up from a rakc
gay i s great
LOL My dad rocked a shirt like that from Daytona Beach in the 80’s Ahahahaha! LOVES IT!
SeXXXay
I’d hit it
Btw readers that is not blogger Sally.
Just wanted to clarify
im gay
or Boo
lol
@Ironhead
I’m pretty sure I just saw some kid wearing the EXACT out fit that you described earlier (skin tight acid wash jeans, a Le Chateau jacket that looked like I’d ripped it off of Mark Holmes from Platinum Blonde and white legwarmers)…
They call themselves “Hipsters” nowadays. :-/
Finally, a “sexy” shirt for men! Make the boys show off more skin / hair! GO FOR IT!
