NYPD tank top (Patreon)

I lived in NYC from 1990 until 1998 and there was always a big gay Pride parade every June. It‘a a huge event and there were always vendors out and one had lots of tshirts and tank tops with the various acronyms of the NY police, fire etc - this was pre 9/11 so these departments we’re not connected to the same deep  reverence for first responders there is now. 

A guy I was dating thought I’d look hot in the police one, so he bought it for me, I striped off my regular t-shirt and put on the NYPD tank top  - it was a hit and I wore it on a few occasions in the summers.

The picture that I posted Is a few years later, right around when I moved to San Francisco and was out a street fair and a friend snapped that pic - I’ll have to dig in my computer because I think I have another version from that day.

As I started to bulk up and the belly began to get nice n round, I used that pic as a reference point to compare my growth. It seemed like a nice relaxed pose i could repeat and show off my new swollen physique. I like have the same pieces of clothing on so you can really see the change.

Today, the tank top is a bit thread bare, but it’s still hanging in there. It feels like I’m handling  something from a museum, the thinning fabric and aged tattered edges. I dont have any other piece of clothing that is over 20yrs old.

I’ll be posting new pics once I have a nice big meal to really show how far I’ve come. One day it may only fit over my neck - not a bad goal ;))
