"Franklin & Marshall" fashion from Italy

An Italian fashion house has created a line of "Franklin & Marshall MCMIC" branded casualwear. It has nothing at all to do with the college in Lancaster (1787), though. The designers apparently just thought it looked nicer than and would compete favorably against Abercrombie & Fitch. According to the company's website, the clothes are "inspired by the American Vintage College spirit" found at literally old-school institutions like F&M.

I gotta get me one of their "DELAWARE BEACH PENNSYLVANIA Franklin and Marshall Swim Champ 87" t-shirts. I'd provide a link but the site is all Flash and I can't gank an image or even give you the URL to their catalog -- which they call a "workbook," keeping with the American university theme.
