Does anyone else have their own Golden Boy?

I do. :o
In fact, there are several. One is a very ratty old turtleneck that is not fit for public viewing anymore, as the collar and cuffs are ragged, but it sure is soft and comfortable now. No logo. I dislike logo shirts, even though I also have an old crewneck Moosehead shirt that is up high on the list of favourites too. The last one is another long-sleeved crewneck that has a print of one of the Group of Seven paintings on the front. It too has ratty cuffs and collar, but it is just so soft that I cannot give up wearing it.
And there is another that I really love to wear at the cottage. It is a shirt from an old thermal underwear set that I inherited from my father, who worked in the woods department of Abitibi-Price and had to stay in the bush camps during the week. It must be 60 years old now. It can no longer be machine washed. Parts of the quilted covering are worn through. It still works just perfectly as a layer in between a turtleneck and a bush shirt for outdoor evening attire.
