Hi All

My 12yo has loved this T-shirt and pretty much lives in it. It is so well-loved it’s become faded and worn. I’ve been trawling eBay but no joy.

If anyone has one in anything age 10 or bigger, please let me know! Or any tips on finding it. (I’ve already contacted The Gap.)

Thank you.

I've searched on Vinted for Gap over 12+ and can't find any that look like yours, although they do have a Gap tie dye one.

Have you considered buying her a plain white one and a tie dye kit to make it her own?

Thank you, that’s so kind of you.

Yes, and I’ve bought other Gap tye-dye T-shirts, but they aren’t up to scratch. We’ve also done tye-dye ourselves, nothing compares to the T-shirt above, apparently.
The one in the photo is super soft and a great shape (or was, before it went through the washing machine 200 times).
I’m sure someone must have one languishing in a wardrobe for us! 🤞

Should I buy it and send it on? But it’s been listed for 2 months.
I shall sit on my hands until the morning anyway.

You're telling me! Took me AGES to register, then my phone kept stalling, had to get out of bed and fire up my laptop, heart pounding hard! It’s IN THE BAG! Woo hoo! Seriously so so beyond thrilled. This forum is THE BEST!!!

@PinkGapTshirt

Thank you sooooooooo much! How on earth did you find it? Which search terms? It wasn’t even titled correctly (the dye instead of tye dye), not much else to go on even excluding that typo. I’m in awe. And ever so grateful. 12yo is gonna be beyond thrilled.

I’d forgotten what shade it used to be! 😆 Our version is sooooooooo faded in comparison!

THANK YOU! 🥰🥰🥰

That is truly one of the most generous offers I’ve ever had, so so sweet of you. For a stranger. I really appreciate the gesture. 🤗🤗

Sorry! I was busy setting up the blooming Elf (gluing Googly eyes on the fruit 👀👀👀) then got sidetracked and forgot to check in on beloved mumsnet 🤗
But all is grand - it’s bought! 💕💕💕💖

Thank you so much all for the interest and encouragement, you’re all adorable and making me really feel the spirit of Xmas and sisterhood. 💗

Really can’t get across how amazing it is to finally have a replacement of the much-adored T-shirt. The old one is really so grubby-looking I’m encouring it to remain an inside the home only t, which has been met with much sadness.

Thank you again, All, and obviously especially @SpikeLou xx

So glad you got it @PinkGapTshirt that's fab news! Do you have an autistic child by any chance? I only ask as I've had similar with mine GinWineSmile

Yay and double yay!

Also I reckon if you save searches on eBay and Vinted you'll have a supply if you need!

No, both mine are NT. Both have gone through phases of loving a certain outfit and choosing it day in, day out. Which is a bit frustrating as I pick them some lovely clothes that then barely get worn.

Did you manage to find replacement clothing when needed?
