Lots of Goats and Clothing is a tailor on Terra Island owned by the pirate Alexaleo. It became in the beginning of 2007 from the millions spent on gold clothing for the rack. It is said that Alexaleo did this for the sole purpose of boasting his PoE around the ocean. No one believed of his constant success buying in with the minimum at the poker tables.
There is rumor going about that he is attempting to obtain every possible combination of every male clothing product. With an able combination of 324 possible color codings for each product with two different colors involved, the daunting task seems, and is deemed by many, as an impossible dream.
Alexaleo has already obtained every swashbucklers jacket, with rumors that he has almost created all of the possible combinations of muskateers hats.
The swashbucklers alone are an estimated 11,000,000 PoE.
It was originally built by Cortelyou while Calais was governor and later upgraded when Twiggy owned the island. It was later sold to Caesarae.
The building was originally named Oh Shirt, which Cortelyou got from Karsh when he was offered a building and needed to quickly produce a name. The name change was completed under the ownership of Alexaleo.
Controversy

As many people have noticed, the products on Terra Island are increasing at a rapid rate. This is due to the fact that Alexaleo buys commodities at a much higher price than his competition. Many alts of characters have come into his shoppe, and yelled at him for hoarding all of the goods that are needed to keep others shoppes running.
When asked why he wants all of the male clothing possible on his rack, he simply replies, "I dunno. It'd most likely be neat to own everything, I really wouldn't need to pay many workers anymore".
This is where the main controversy lies... Should a pirate, even though able to, ruin the market for a certain island for the sole purpose of not wanting to pay his jobbers? The subject is a touchie one, and many are outraged at his pointless attempt to 'waste PoE', like he has previously in the case of his furnished Villa.
This however, is a on a much larger scale, and if he is able to keep up with the competition's willingness to pay a bit more for a certain commodity by raising his own buying price, the shoppe owners may have to look elsewhere to run a successful shoppe.
