Technically it wasn't a sheer shirt, but I think it fits here. I was visiting some friends in New Smyrna Beach Florida in the eighties. I walked to a surf shop, spent too much money there, and then on my walk back I stopped at a grocery to get a coke. Outside of the grocery they had fundraiser going on for a local kids football team and also for their cheerleading squad. The football coach who was there was big, ripped, and clearly he had played at least at the college level, if not higher. The coach of the cheerleading squad, who I think was his wife, was an absolute knockout. Tall, blonde, beautiful. Im sure she had been cheerleading at whatever school they met at, but for today she was wearing a football jersey for the little league team.
I didn't really think too much about it until when I got in the checkout line. I probably dawdled at the magazines, but by the time i got in line she was in line in front of me. It was a saturday, so the checkout line was very long, and it was then i noticed something nice about her shirt. At that time, football jerseys, particularly in the deep south, were made of a wider mesh material, and you could see right through hers. It was yellow or white, and I about dropped my coke when i noticed. I am certain she caught me looking, but made no effort to conceal herself. I can't remember if she laughed or rolled her eyes, but she did not seem to care one bit. I was a teenager after all, but still, after paying I got out of there pretty quick. When I was leaving she was talking to her husband, and I didn't care to find out how he felt about it, if she was telling him about me.
SO not quite a see through, at least in the conventional sense.
