Be Holding is a love song to legendary basketball player Julius Erving--known as Dr. J--who dominated courts in the 1970s and '80s as a small forward for the Philadelphia '76ers. But this book-length poem is more than just an ode to a magnificent athlete. Through a kind of lyric research, or lyric meditation, Ross Gay connects Dr. J's famously impossible move from the 1980 NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers to pick-up basketball and the flying Igbo and the Middle Passage, to photography and surveillance and state violence, to music and personal histories of flight and familial love. Be Holding wonders how the imagination, or how our looking, might make us, or bring us, closer to each other. How our looking might make us reach for each other. And might make us be reaching for each other. And how that reaching might be something like joy.Binding Type: Paperback

Looks sharp, concert black, comfortable some stretch
Size: Medium, Color: Black
I bought this for my son to wear at his band concerts, and it’s been perfect. He’s about 5’8” and 155 lbs, and I got him a men’s medium—it fits really well with a comfortable, true-to-size feel.
The quality is excellent: soft, lightweight, and breathable, with just enough stretch so he has the flexibility he needs while playing trombone. It also looks really sharp on stage.

Snazzy shirt

Fits great & looks wonderful. Can be worn casually or for work. Very wrinkly, just toss it in the dryer and they will come right out. It's lightweight & cool.

Great shirts have to iron first
Size: XX-Large Tall, Color: Black
They feel great the material, they’re thin, the style looks good, the length to and below my waist is good. For the cost they’re good shirts and they’re definitely loose fitting, however they shove them in a tight bag so if you plan on wearing this straight away from delivery day make sure you have an iron ready every single collar and I ordered over 7 shirts comes folded over. Took a star away for the fact they don’t pack them how you would find a higher price shirt packed and typically wear ready.

Nice shirt. Light weight. It’s true to size and skin friendly because it is cotton.
