Re Reply Number #26: Quoting the "mystery" of why a preference for a certain sweater/shirt......."long-sleeved horizontally-striped .....shirt......long wide navy-coloured stripes, silhouetted with similiarly-sized gray stripes.... (actually the stripes are best described as alternating, and the original unused color would be white, not gray - AP).........I have no clue why." IMO, may I suggest that this "mystery" may be easily solved. It sounds EXACTLY like a modern rendition of a Russian sailor's undershirt................but then I feel that you would know that..... Thus, it may potentially remain a "mystery." Regards, AP.
