J.Crew Email: The only tee you'll ever need (or want)

"Thanks!" to Jaden who shared the latest email J.Crew sent today.

The email features the Jaspé Jersey V-neck Tee (item 13260; $36.00) which is described as:
Your search for the ultimate wear-with-everything tee ends here (and we've added new colors). We use a twisted cotton yarn and a special knitting technique to achieve this highly sought-after vintage, heathered effect—simply put, this is not your average tee. It's one of our designers' favorite ideas—and from what we hear, it's gaining quite the fan base. Tailored fit—a slimmer fit that looks like it was made for you.
"Thanks!" also to hdnb, the blogger behind the {great} Hotdish & Bars blog, who shared the following super sleuth find: "I was wondering if you received the email this morning from J. Crew advertising the men's Jaspe tee. This is totally fluff, and actually irrelevant to the product itself (which feels really nice in person, btw), but the model himself sports a couple of forearm tattoos in the catalog that are missing in the email rendition of the photo." To view side-by-side images of the model with (& without) tatoos, refer to his "Missing Tattoos and Other Musings, J.Crew Edition" post.

What are your thoughts on the Men's Jaspé Jersey V-neck Tee? Do you like or dislike the style of the tee? Do you think that it has a good starting price point?
