Default Striped Shirt

I am looking for a striped shirt (Orange and white striped) for my costume. I have seen some online for about $50, but was hoping there was a place where I could get one cheaper.
Thank you in advance!

I haven't shopped there, but I believe the correct name website Silly Farm Supplies Inc. - face and body paints and face and body painting It looks like an interesting site, but the focus seems to be on items for women. At least when it comes to costumes and accessories. Am I missing something, or are the male clowns left out?

I think those shirts are mens sizes??? I know mine ran alittle large. Very nice shirts.......they have all kinds of things, I dont believe its geared for the ladies.........well maybe most of the costumes are, but I do believe the shirts are men sizes as well

Often clown shirts run a little bigger than normal sizes to make them more clowny.

I just purchased some stuff from Silly Farms for Pattycake, we had a little mix up in the books that I wanted. They not only sent prepaid return mailers for the wrong books that they sent but when the right ones arrived there was a little gift enclosed to say oops we're sorry for the mix up.

Orange and white stripe is not a common request ... you might also try ebay. I saw a couple on ebay for women (Tommy Hilfiger) ... but the only thing that made them look femmi was the neckline.

I have purchased 3 of them one was way to big, think it was missed sized so they did send me a return envelope and a note saying they were sorry, they have very fast delivery time, and if you call their toll free number and tell them what size you normally wear they will be able to help you get the right size, great company to work with.
Good luck,
