Designer Marc Jacob has apologised and removed a t-shirt from stores as the design of the garment resembled the cover of neo-Nazi band Skrewdriver's 1987 album "Boots & Braces".

"It has been brought to our attention that the imagery on a t-shirt of ours is similar to that used by a band," femalefirst.co.uk quoted a spokesperson from the Jacob's label as saying.

"We were not trying to make a connection to that band or make a statement of any kind," he added.

A number of stores have reportedly removed the garment.
