    Basic Colors on Coney Island Ave near Avenue J. I love the stretchy fabric they use and they hold up well. Their bandanas’ elastic doesnt last though.

    Basic Colors brings a truckload to Passaic & KGH frequently, probably other locations too. His ad says he has a store in Brooklyn 1362 Coney Island Ave.

    Basic Colors has the best prices. Shell station charges $25 for a long sleeve shell.. Not that exciting when the sweater cost you only $20!

    This is not going to get interesting until someone says that it is assur to wear shells since anything which is not tznius by itself should not be worn with a shell either.

    Yes, but not if the garbage bag has a red draw-string. Then it is assur also.

    No – her mother is looking for a specific brand. The as-close-to-$10-as-you-can-get brand. But personally I think that It is assur to wear shells since anything which is not tznius by itself should not be worn with a shell either. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. I was cracking up from popa and Daas.

    Yoyo-don’t worry, you can wear a shirt under most sweaters-and brooks brothers has non iron ones that don’t require more care than a shell so they’re really wash, dry and wear!!

    got a brother in Passaic who checks in with me when ‘the truck’ comes. He never mentioned shells though. But then again I don’t even know if he would know what they were. . . I’ve never seen him wear one. Shells used to be little half things to fill the neck line (way back in my day) but now its just a shirt that they wear under their shirt. It doesn’t look much like a shell at all.

    You can buy them at Home Depot and they’re under $15 for a whole box, but you have to get the contractor bags, the lawn & leaf aren’t tznius. For plus size people, I recommend Hefty.

    Gefen and Candy613 both know that the Shell Stations around here are up to 3.80. And if you want to be provincial, the Shell Station by Shloimy’s in Lakewood has a Landswoman (is there such a word?) that is there most of the time.

    #747263

    i got from basic colors in Passaic for 3 girls shells skirts and tshirts for camp for all under 200 dollars and it last for years and their bandannas are so comfortable WHAT A CHESED THEY ARE DOING!

    “anything which is not tznius by itself should not be worn with a shell either. “

    Daas and poppa –

    You have the female members of the CR all wrong.

    They plan on wearing the shells OVER the clothing they already own (can’t be too careful with out-tznius’ng your neighbor)

    tznius is hidden but here everyone makes big issues of everything the reason why chava was created with a rib from adam is because it is hidden someone asked for help where to buy something and people instead of helping someone they are making a whole big thing about it try to keep it b’tznius

    ” The garbage bag should still go over that. “

    I don’t feel so comfortable with the “garbage bag look” as its too similar to the vinyl / wet look.

    Burlap, perhaps?
