Green Shirt
Overview of Clothing Habits and the Green Shirt
Daniel has a habit of wearing the same clothes for extended periods of time. It is speculated that he does not change his clothes often because of his homelessness, but this phenomena has also been observed in other autistic individuals with the resources to change their clothes. His lack of clean clothes also likely contributes to his speculated foul odor and in more recent times, his scabies. The first article of clothing that gained widespread acclaim within the Daniel Larson universe was the infamous Green Shirt. The specific shirt that he wore for approximately 4 months and 21 days (141 days) was the Sport Tek Men's Moisture Wicking CamoHex Tee Shirt in the color green.[1]
The Origin of the Green Shirt
Due to the repeated deactivation and banning of his accounts, there is some debate as to when the first appearance of the shirt occurred. The oldest date which is currently cited as the first appearance is February 25, 2022.[2] The oldest, still existent, TikTok which includes the green shirt is a duet by Bandit which took place on March 17, 2022.[3] However the earliest reddit post to include said shirt was posted on March 7, 2022[4] within a mistitled thread in which he wears it under a different shirt[5]. It is unclear how he gained ownership of such a shirt, but it has been speculated that it was given to him by Bob Proctor[6]. There are many instances in which Daniel blew his nose or wiped his ejaculate onto the green shirt.
The Acquisition and Alleged Sale of the Green Shirt by Luke
The culmination of the green shirt era occurred on or near June 15, 2022 when Redditor and friend of Daniel, /u/LOLnicedudenice aka Luke,[7][8] acquired it from Daniel. It was likely exchanged for a new shirt and meal or due to Luke's repeated good will shown to Daniel over a number of weeks. During said acquisition, Daniel was encouraged to sign his name on the shirt. Daniel misspelled his hit song Roaring Thunder as "AoaRiNg thUNDER" and then wrote his name under that with inconsistent capitalization on all words written. Along with the title and his name, he added a small and undiscernible doodle.
The Reddit thread alleges that the shirt was sold, but no hard evidence has surfaced proving that fact, nor has a real price on this artifact been pinned down.[9]
