I've always wanted a reprint of this, mainly cause I thought the blue was such a pretty, vibrant color.
So now they have reprinted it..but on baby blue?

I can't decide if it's 'pretty and mellow' or 'washed out', what do you think?

washed out. if you see my other comments about this reprint, you'll see my strong opinions on pastels.

The reason I liked this design was because of the colour it was printed on, the fact is break free is about being viberant and exciting, its just fucking stupid to put it on baby blue. Pastel blue as a colour has a calming effect on people and thats the opposite of it. It works for best friends forever because its about being relaxed and friendly putting break free on that colour is just butchering a design. Come on who was the numbnut who said lets put it on baby blue.



Oh I'm also mainly pissed because I should of got a letter from the service that helps us get into uni a week ago and its supposed to come within 24 hours.

I HATE THAT THIS IS ON BABY BLUE! I was going to get it , I want it really bad, most of it's appeal was the shirt color it was on before. :( And I really wanted this shirt too. DAMN YOU THREADLESS!

My first thought was YES they reprinted it. my next thought was "on baby blue?" And now I don't think I'm going to buy it even though it was/is one of my favorite designs. I just know that I won't wear it if it's baby blue. I guess that the designer requested it be put on baby blue. Which I think is pretty stupid.

^ cough. Just thought you should know that your comment was preceded by a comment by the designer.



The baby blue is growing on me...although I still wish it was in the original color. I guess there's room in my closet for one baby blue shirt...

Ha Ha, amandine... well, I am glad it got reprinted... I rather like it on the baby blue, although I do understand that it is a commonly used tee color.

woah I didn't notice that...I like the old blue way better, it's a ton more eye-catching and interesting... but I guess it doesn't matter cause I don't have the money to buy this right now anyway :(

Just because the designers says something doesnt make it right, many people simply dont know when to step back from their work.
narcissus_poeticus
narcissus_poeticus on Nov 22 '05 at 4:57pm
indeed. but does baby blue make this design worse?



i deduced that it doesn't. my only quam was that I personally don't look as good in the pale blue shades as the vibrant tealy ones. but i love the message.



so i thought, what the fuck? its on sale.

pshhh. whatever. here i am trying to smoothe things over.



:P



maybe they'll print this again in teal...who knows. i'd buy it again and give away my baby blue, if i felt so inclined.



its a hot shirt regardless.

I would've bought it in a second if it was on the teal color but I won't buy it on the baby blue. It's just nowhere near as nice on the baby blue. I know that the designer requested it and yada yada but designers aren't always right. And I think it does retract from the design. It doesn't stand out nearly as much anymore. I should probably just give it up though.
