One caveat: if you're going to make a t-shirt, do it right and spend the money to print it on decent material, i.e., soft, not scratchy, fitting decently, etc..

One caveat: if you're going to make a t-shirt, do it right and spend the money to print it on decent material, i.e., soft, not scratchy, fitting decently, etc... (American Apparel's t-shirts are nice.) Any cheaply made t-shirts I get go straight to Goodwill.

- ruswick 14y agoI don't even think this is necessary. I've done work that is totally beyond what is commensurate with reward for really shitty shirts. Companies can almost certainly get by with poor materials, simply because most people don't account for that in the moment, and likely lack access to that information anyway.
- mminer 14y agoBut do you wear a shitty t-shirt after you receive it? Part of a company's motivation for giving out t-shirts is cheap publicity — people literally walk around with that company's logo on their chest. They're unlikely to do that though if the shirt fits poorly or is otherwise uncomfortable.
- lizzard 14y agoAmerican Apparel's sizes for women are truly horrible. Large ones fit an average sized 10 year old.
- johnsndu 14y agoBy average sized 10 year old, do you actually mean a physically fit adult, and you're just bitter because you're obese?
- mwetzler 14y agoIt is very strange. I love the AA women's cuts, but they are way smaller than most women's clothing sizes. It's really awkward to give them out because I have to tell people that they're going to need a bigger size.
