The three articles in English are 'a', 'an', and 'the'. The rule is if the nouns refer to different things or persons, the article is used before each noun.
Article 'the' is used while speaking of a particular person or thing. Here, market and shirt are the specific things thus, 'the' should be used. Both the nouns are different hence, 'the' should be used before each noun.
Thus, option B is the correct answer.
