Fastball Freddy Peralta Milwaukee Shirt

What is it about white jeans that has made that perfect fit—read: not too short, not too flared, definitely not too tight, and free of unnecessary pockets, grommets, and fraying—so elusive? Over the years, I’ve searched high and low for such streamlined styles, only to turn up empty-handed. Of course, the piece isn’t just a figment of my imagination: Jackie Kennedy flitted about Mediterranean islands in seemingly countless iterations, while Love Story’s Ali MacGraw, outfitted in a relaxed pair and flip-flops, continues to pop up on my Instagram feed 50 years after the Fastball Freddy Peralta Milwaukee Shirt release. If only I hadn’t still been shopping in the kid’s section when Gap carried perhaps the quintessential style, which were modeled by 10 of the world’s top supermodels on Vogue’s 100th anniversary cover, I’d perhaps own the best white jeans ever made.
