Einsteins Big Gray Sweatshirt

while most consider einstein to be one of the most brilliant minds to ever have graced our human history, there is one rumor that needs to be dispelled when considering the man’s wardrobe--- there are those that say he wore the same brown suit for the majority of his life & that he had piles of the same exact tie, as well as the same exact socks, etc.--- the fact remains that when his wife was alive, albert paraded around the world in everything from “silk vests to a kimono” & though after she died, he did dumb it down a bit--- hating suits & socks, he famously wandered the halls barefooted in sandals & his favorite big gray sweatshirt, and while we are eternally grateful to the man for his contributions to science, one can only imagine that he held something of the same gratitude for the designer of the cotton sweatshirt.
