As much as I love the art and design of the Threadless t's (which is solely the workings of you guys), The quality of the shirts, I can honestly say I am not impressed with at all.

My main issues I have (especially with recent purchases) have been that the material is light and lacks strength - This caused the stitching to rip around the neck area when taking the shirt off and also that the material is so thin, that one can almost see through it (especially if it's a pale colour).

Surely with the huge amount of shirts that Threadless churns out, a bit more can be invested in quality to ensure that shirts are durable and long lasting.

As long as this continues, I know I wont be shopping here for the time being.

Any others in this boat?

I will say that I have decided I refer the AA shirts, as I have had less issues with them shrinking weirdly (become too short on me).

I totally agree AA tees are better, but as for ripping or transparency - no way, mang.

I never had the problem mentioned in the original post, but I have experienced the shrinking issue on several occasions.

When you had trouble with the shirt being see through. Are you sure you were wearing one at the time?

I haven't noticed the sheerness that you talk about, but definitely have noticed the collar issues. I try to take really good care of my shirts, but they become unraveled and the collar starts folding over on itself. It seems like they're printing more on AA now though so that should remedy all these problems :-)
