RIPOFF found

about Teddybear loves Teddyboy

I found a ripoff of this shirt online (unless the threadless shirt ripped off this site, which I doubt).

http://www.psychobabyonline.com/site/epage/26839_533.htm

is there someone I can contact at threadless about this?

theurbanraptor on Nov 07 '06 at 2:06am

this shirt was made before that product on that site.
they copied threadless.

digitalDreamer on Nov 07 '06 at 2:10am

they tried not to make it so obvious and came out with that

prkswllflwr on Nov 07 '06 at 12:09pm

isn't it horrible? i was pissed off. it's such a bad ripoff too. ugh.

xiv on Nov 07 '06 at 12:10pm

just because it looks similar doesnt mean they stole it.

prkswllflwr on Nov 07 '06 at 12:10pm

i contacted threadless last night after i found it; we'll see what happens...

chelly on Nov 07 '06 at 12:16pm

it doesn't look stolen to me

Papaprime on Nov 07 '06 at 12:16pm

I think the similarities in hand, the entire body placement and the heart make this much more than a simple coincidence.

chelly on Nov 07 '06 at 12:17pm

inspired by?

Papaprime on Nov 07 '06 at 12:17pm

I'm not saying the other designer didn't draw this themselves, I'm just saying it is VERY obvious what they were looking at when they got the "idea"

threadless' response:

Thanks for letting us know about this. Unfortunately, they did not steal the design - they stole the idea, but we can't copyright an idea so there's no legal action we can take.

Have a wonderful day!

It really isn't a original concept. But it's a cute concept.
I like the cartoony style of threadless.
I also dig the other design as well.

This sort of thing happens alot, but then watered down versions usually look like dog dirt!

think Bugs Bunny -The Abominable Snow Rabbit – 1961 -- Bugs and Daffy tunnel to Nepal, where they meet Hugo. Hugo wants to hug them and pet them and hold them and squeeze them and name them George.

Hey There,
My name is Marlo. I am the co-owner of Psychobaby. I take great offence reguarding this accusation. For all of your information, this is not one of our Psychobaby Designs! It is from a company we no longer carry called Dirty Laundry. I highly recommend whoever designed this to take it up straight with them and leave our reputation alone! We are big fans of Threadless and all of you "original" designers out there. We hire gret young people all the time for our own "original" thoughts and have no need to steal.

bobobob1230 on Apr 28 '08 at 6:47pm
