I think most of you will guess this.

Is this suitable?
No I don't think it is suitable.

For the life of me I cannot understand why anyone would want to wear a t-shirt with this on ESPECIALLY taking into account where you would be wearing it.

Everybody is different so you can never be sure. One CM may think it's funny and another think it's offensive. Personally I find the 'FC-UK' T shirts very offensive and I wish people wouldn't wear them.

I say wear what you want! If people are offended by that shirt in particular they need to lighten up! you have to tread on eggshells around some people - jeez.

I will be there at the beginning of Oct so if you are still about I will be sure to say hi! and my entire family will have a giggle at your shirt!

It just stands for French Connection United Kingdom so it isn't offensive and if a child asked you could just explain

Yeah... that's why they are/were so popular - everyone wants to advertise French Connection

I have heard of people in the parks being asked to cover up French Connection UK t-shirts because the acronym is not known in the US, so people are more likely to read it wrongly than here in the UK.

Whether any of us personally finds a t-shirt offensive or not isn't the point of this thread. Disney's rules are that if they deem it offensive, you can be asked to cover it up or leave. Frankly I wouldn't take the risk.

Maybe they were on commission?

Exactly my thoughts.its a family place .
