jstumpenhorst on Dec 03 '07 at 12:59pm

excellent!

shakethesheets on Dec 03 '07 at 1:00pm

I've noticed much less shrinkage

FireOfHeaven on Dec 03 '07 at 1:00pm

oh brother here we go again with all the questions...

numbskulls, it's really easy, you look on the sizing chart and you compare them to the others...

Edword on Dec 03 '07 at 1:00pm

wowzers! the new shirts feel great!

squintygirl on Dec 03 '07 at 1:01pm

Yippee!

OlliRudi on Dec 03 '07 at 1:02pm

excellent! congrats you guys!

hope the fit hasn't changed too much from last years' threadless branded shirt!

Rambunkcious on Dec 03 '07 at 1:02pm

dont call me a numbskull fireofheaven ill judo chop your face lol

xiv on Dec 03 '07 at 1:02pm

FireOfHeaven on Dec 03 '07 at 1:00pm
oh brother here we go again with all the questions...

numbskulls, it's really easy, you look on the sizing chart and you compare them to the others...

its pretty hard to trust the size chart when they've been using FOTL and everyone of those shirts vary in size...

im glad these new shirts are finally here!

chelly on Dec 03 '07 at 1:04pm

yay for new shirts

boo for me not wanting that one

hmm for curiosity

zipperking on Dec 03 '07 at 1:04pm

they feel so lovely and soft, i only wish the collar band was a little wider. other than that, they're wonderful :)

Kerrn on Dec 03 '07 at 1:05pm

the collars look thinner

-k.

skaw on Dec 03 '07 at 1:06pm

we'll hopefully be releasing one or two more designs a week on the custom tees until we get our big order in and are able to start going completely exclusive... 2 more next week :)

tracerbullet on Dec 03 '07 at 1:06pm

are the alumni shirts the new shirts? 'cause mine had side seams, and that was bad.

t4sh4 on Dec 03 '07 at 1:06pm

^5!

Rambunkcious on Dec 03 '07 at 1:07pm

brian a tube spun means so side seams so probably not

TheArtRobot on Dec 03 '07 at 1:09pm

Sweet! What colors do they come in?

FireOfHeaven on Dec 03 '07 at 1:10pm

yeah, i'd like to see some NEW shirts on the custom tee rather than a reprint of a select. i know, i know, no one is ever happy...

I assume the price point still the same?

xiv, when someone says will they fit like AA? will they shrink? they obviously aren't taking the 3 extra clicks to read the information provided.

Robsoul on Dec 03 '07 at 1:11pm

holy fuck, and it comes in pure silver for guys!!!!!!!

thejosher on Dec 03 '07 at 1:13pm

yay for pure silver instead of the ugly heather grey.

i do think the color band looks kinda thin on the girls.

Rambunkcious on Dec 03 '07 at 1:13pm

uh actually i did FireOfHeaven...and it doesnt say anything about it, so i would appreiciate it if you wouldnt be a jerk thanks

thejosher on Dec 03 '07 at 1:13pm

collar*

Kerrn on Dec 03 '07 at 1:19pm

the collar looks ridiculously thin on the girls which i cant tell is just the way the picture is/the color...it's concerning

-k.

sonmi on Dec 03 '07 at 1:22pm

oh neat!

Mikko Terva on Dec 03 '07 at 1:25pm

cheers, for the custom shirts and skinnycorp for taking them into use. the alumni shirt is great, smells fab too.

Rachel Ray Gun on Dec 03 '07 at 1:26pm

the collar is a bit thinner for girls, but i don't see how that's very concerning. it doesn't dip too low or anything.

phones on Dec 03 '07 at 1:31pm

is this the regular price for the shirts?

hauntingsiren on Dec 03 '07 at 1:38pm

So -- I'm confused. Let me get this straight...

All the new shirts will be printed on the threadless custom shirts? I'm assuming that means that the page will say: Printed on the all new Threadless custom tees!!

If it says otherwise, then we can assume that the guys will be printed on the FotL 50/50 and the girls on the AA 100%?

Right?

shakethesheets on Dec 03 '07 at 1:38pm

It is a lot thinner, which seemed odd to me at first but after wearing one, I don't really mind it.

shakethesheets on Dec 03 '07 at 1:39pm

The collar is thinner, that is.

hauntingsiren on Dec 03 '07 at 1:39pm

Oh, and yea -- $5 more for guys and $3 more for girls?

I don't see how this is so incredibly fabulous. It's *sort of* better for the guys, since 50/50 isn't the greatest.. but for the girls? Just paying another $3 for the shirt.. not so great.

jublin on Dec 03 '07 at 1:45pm

dip it low, flip it, and reverse it.
much love missy!

mine seemed really huge when i got mine. like it was labeled men's medium, but was actually a large. from what i've heard they should seem smaller if anything! hmmm... i'm on the case

shakethesheets on Dec 03 '07 at 1:47pm

I don't know about the pricing, but from what I've heard, it'll be about the same as it is now. The prices you're referring to are due to Home Is Where The Heart Is being a select.

skaw on Dec 03 '07 at 1:49pm

Yes, this is a select design, hence the pricing.

shakethesheets on Dec 03 '07 at 1:50pm

The girly L I have (the arzie/glennz store select) was noticeably smaller than my normal girly L shirts, but bigger than the normal girly M. As Dan mentioned, the fits seem "truer" to what the sizes tend to be in the real world. I've always worn girly M or L, though... So it might hurt a bit to have to buy girly XL for a baggier fit.

hauntingsiren on Dec 03 '07 at 1:57pm

Sorry -- didn't really see that design as a select. I retract said statement about the pricing.

However -- I was just getting used to the sizing of the AA's.. sadness.

wakaba on Dec 03 '07 at 1:59pm

yay!

Pizazz on Dec 03 '07 at 2:02pm

hell yeah!

Melikochan on Dec 03 '07 at 2:02pm

Looks like the girly XLs still won't fit, while guys medium fits well...except for the chest.

Dammit.

kissmeimshitfaced on Dec 03 '07 at 2:05pm

TAGS? WTF?

shakethesheets on Dec 03 '07 at 2:08pm

Hmm... I thought I heard that threadless was going to offer more sizes with the custom tees. Am I wrong, does this just apply to kids/baby tees, or are they just not coming out with new sizes yet?

skaw on Dec 03 '07 at 2:15pm

we'll be rolling out some more sizes when we go exclusive

jublin on Dec 03 '07 at 2:17pm

more sizes really? woah like petite medium? or muscle medium?

juliejeremiah on Dec 03 '07 at 2:20pm

jublin on Dec 03 '07 at 2:22pm

extra medium?

valorandvellum on Dec 03 '07 at 2:28pm

Hooray! I'm glad the switch is finally being made :-)

mantras on Dec 03 '07 at 2:28pm

Was "Cut Loose" on the custom tee?

kissmeimshitfaced on Dec 03 '07 at 2:29pm

An Ultra Average size perhaps?

skaw on Dec 03 '07 at 3:17pm

Yes, cut loose was on the custom tee as well. We will be rolling out XS guys and girls, 2X girls and 3X guys...

drmtama2 on Dec 03 '07 at 3:18pm

JAKE====how many more of the No Pattern (remix) do you have at the store... i might ask my bro for a favor to pick one up for me

:)

czongor on Dec 03 '07 at 4:42pm

I hope they have size smedium

Tonteau on Dec 03 '07 at 4:44pm

They feel good.

funkie fresh on Dec 03 '07 at 4:46pm

zomg at xs girls! yay for threadless tees

Todow on Dec 03 '07 at 4:50pm

Do they fit the same as the I heart Threadless shirt?

McJamie on Dec 03 '07 at 4:52pm

Yay for girly 2xl! Way to include the fat chicks. We like threadless too. :)

sjgrovo on Dec 03 '07 at 4:54pm

woo - so exciting!

sharpie on Dec 03 '07 at 5:05pm

I used to get guys medium, but then got a girly XL to see how it fit and I liked it. Now I'll have to figure out what size to get in the new shirts :(

yeohgh on Dec 03 '07 at 5:22pm

WOWWWW...finally,,and SUPER AWESOME!!!

staffell on Dec 03 '07 at 5:25pm

"All of the new tees are printed on Threadless custom cut 100% ring spun combed cotton."

seems to conflict with:

"Over the next few weeks, we'll be introducing more and more designs on this new and exciting tee "

So does that mean that not all of the new tees are printed on this shirt?

I'm confused!!

sugarless on Dec 03 '07 at 5:37pm

i was confused too, staffell...

also, hoodies? i love aa hoodies.....

FRICKINAWESOME on Dec 03 '07 at 6:01pm

Probably all shirts from now on that haven't been already printed but not released yet will now be printed on this style of shirt. This honestly is the difference in me buying or not buying a non-polo version of home is where the heart is.

Mojie on Dec 03 '07 at 6:07pm

Hmm, now I won't know what size to order. I love the fit of the AA Girly M's (I like them baggier) but I definitely don't normally wear anything near a medium. I wear a size 2 in sized shirts, but I don't want my t-shirts too tight so I'm not sure if I want to go with a small or a medium in the new shirts.

PrincessBea on Dec 03 '07 at 6:33pm

i just love the aa-girly-shirts.

the sizes shouldn't be a problem.. but i hope, the fabric is good.

we'll see.
for me there's no need for a change

Mojie on Dec 03 '07 at 6:36pm

I agree, PrincessBea. I love my AA shirts. :(

I'm open to change, though, as long as it works out. But it means I'm going to have to start over essentially from scratch on my Girly sizes blog (and buy shirts in a range of sizes again, which my bank account won't like one bit).

ir0cko on Dec 03 '07 at 6:47pm

i'm so happy there will be xs guys :D

stubbythumbs on Dec 03 '07 at 6:48pm

yessss! thanks threadless!

what about 12 club tho?

squeegebeckenheim on Dec 03 '07 at 8:53pm

Awesome!

I can't wait to try out some of the new shirts.

Todow on Dec 03 '07 at 8:57pm

i'm so happy there will be xs guys :D

Me too the normal smalls are much too big.

phyntosia on Dec 03 '07 at 10:57pm

yayy :) *can't wait to start buying Threadless custom tees*

pyr4lis on Dec 04 '07 at 12:36am

Well I'm totally depressed that Threadless didn't make their new tees any longer... the Girly Medium AA is 26" long and their new Girly Medium cut is the same exact length!! :(

Gah!! They're like completely cutting out the average height ladies of 5'6" +. I'm really sad now because I had held out hope that they would rectify the situation that the American Apparel tees are cut for short adolecents and that Threadless would make their new tees to actually fit women with curves and of an Average (not petite) height.

fairybread on Dec 04 '07 at 2:15am

The new sizing isn't that different from the existing sizing for AA, on the girls side.

The Girly Small is made longer, but not the Girly medium, which is puzzling. Why make the Girly Small longer...considering the Girly Medium is more likely to be worn by taller ladies, and in need of lengthening more than a Girly Small size. For the petite girls out there, at least there will be a Girly XS in the works, for those who find the AA shirts long in length as it is.

On the positive side this is definitely a move in the right direction for Threadless to have their shirts.

nettajean on Dec 04 '07 at 2:18pm

Are the made in the USA like AA?

todiefor on Dec 04 '07 at 5:16pm

holy crap let our veins do the talking!

so awesome threadless!
are all newly printed shirts from now on on threadless custom?

MrDomino on Dec 04 '07 at 5:23pm

There wouldn't happen to be any of those NoPattern tees left would there?

Siye on Dec 04 '07 at 5:29pm

collar is too thin on the girls tees in my opinion...
the shirt cut looks really rounded too (i.e. sleeves)
I don't know if I like the change.

Mojie on Dec 04 '07 at 5:44pm

Yeah, I agree, Sive. I've actually been dreading the change-over because I love the AA Girly shirts. I'm open to giving them a chance, but I don't think I'm going to be happy with the change. :(

ozmodiar on Dec 04 '07 at 6:04pm

The have a NoPattern shirt in girly M, and it's smaller than an AA girl M I just ordered. It actually seems closer to the AA small.

pyr4lis on Dec 04 '07 at 6:07pm

Yeah I had one of those store only tee's in the new cut and the Girls medium I have is really really small.. it's like nearly a full size smaller than all the other mediums I have. :(

ozmodiar on Dec 04 '07 at 6:33pm

ok, I just compared the sizes. The Threadless girls M is pretty much the same size as the AA girls small. The most noticeable difference is the sleeves are a little longer on the Threadless shirt.

mindtrance on Dec 07 '07 at 8:35am

I hope they are tagless... I hate tags.

Mojie on Dec 07 '07 at 6:53pm

Okay, so I guess I stay with Medium then. Or go up to a Large. That's so bizarre because there's no way in hell that I wear a large in anything. Yay for weird sizing!

aqueoustransmegan on Dec 09 '07 at 5:27am

is 12 month going to switch to the new tees? i hope they do because I'd rather get a men's small than a girly shirt!

jwalsh on Dec 10 '07 at 12:23am

oooh im glad they are out cant wait!

squatterjohn on Dec 10 '07 at 7:51pm

So the Selects were on Threadless tees again this week. Will this be a permanent thing? Selects first and then rolling out onto the other prints later.

KristofferB on Dec 16 '07 at 4:32pm

I may be stupid (Or I May Not), but how do i spot one of these nice t-shirts in the cataloge (internet)?

xiv on Dec 16 '07 at 5:25pm

below the product photo theres a space where it says what the design is printed on.

21 days later

mephitine on Jan 07 '08 at 8:40am

Soooo....I understand the girly shirts are even smaller now than the AA girly shirts? That's great news for all the Mary-Kate and Ashleys of the world. Please, keep shrinking the sizes, I need more incentive to keep starving myself. Not eating is the coolest! Ribs and bones are the height of fashion. Who wants to look healthy when you can look like you just got out of a death camp?

15 days later

Mojie on Jan 22 '08 at 8:29pm

Well, I took the plunge and bought ABCs on the new custom tee in my usual size (Girly M). We'll see how it goes and I'll update my size comparison blog once it's here and I can try it out.

I really love the design and with my STPs and a coupon code, it cost me $0.21 with shipping, so I don't have much to lose if I don't like it.

jrouse1 on Jan 23 '08 at 10:21pm

So, if the girls shirts were more expensive than the guys shirts because they were printed on AA before, why on the new tees aren't the men's and women's shirts the same price?

Mojie on Jan 24 '08 at 11:50am

I've been wondering the same thing.

Mojie on Jan 25 '08 at 6:29pm

My custom Girly M is here! At first glance, it looks pretty much the same, size-wise as the AA Girly M. But I'll do a comparison picture tomorrow and post it in my blog. :)

I'm not crazy about the collar width (too narrow), which I expected. Other than that, it looks pretty good. Not really loving the tag, either, but I can cut it out if it starts bugging me.

I'm not passing a final judgment until I try it on and see how it fits/feels.

"we have took to heart?"
Taken. You have taken to heart.

Pizazz on Jan 31 '08 at 6:40pm

I applaud the custom tees! I just got my first one, and it's hands down the best shirt I've ever felt!It fits perfectly, love the extra length, and I love the fixing of the sleeves!
