haven't been around in a long time, i have a question.
Hello everyone

I haven't been around Threadless in a good long while and have made my way back in the neighborhood and have a question. See, I used to buy a lot of shirts here but then hung it up because I got a bit tired of fruit of the loom, NOW I'm thinking about buying some more shirts once more BUT I was wondering, and I know they've been around for awhile, but how are the men's custom tee's? are they more of a lose or a tight fit? How do they stack up with American Apparel (which is what I kind of prefer to wear) I was just wondering and I thought you folks might be able to help.

thanks!

Id say have a look at some peoples gallery pics, pick some people who look about the same size as you, and see how they fit them? I'm a chick so my opinion on the chicks shirts will not help you, unless you're into that kind of thing...

They're tighter. I stopped buying dudes' shirts once they were all the same price, but the new tees are more fitted, probably on all accounts. The sizing chart probably still has froot of the loom on there in case you want to compare that with the new ones they use.

From what I've heard, the sleeves on the men's shirts are a lot less flappy. Also, the material is thinner than FOTL.

I could be wrong, though--most the blogs I've read are about the women's ones, and I haven't even bought any of the custom shirts... Sorry I can't be of more help.

(And it's nice to see you around, Shad!)

thanks everyone, I reckon I'll go ahead and place an order, if nothing else I can always send the shirts back if I don't like 'em god bless Threadless and their lenient return policy.

The material is definitely softer, but do NOT dry it a lot or it will shrink. Just hang it up after washing if it gets too small and it will get bigger.
