UK addicts to threadless...
things i've been wondering...

what are the percentages of different countries that buy tees from threadless?
obviously america has the lying share but what about the uk?

following on from this, it's kind of weird when you go out one night to a club (lets say bristol, in the uk) and look around and spot 5 or 6 people with threadless tees on and realise that you're not the only special person in the room - as if you've automatically got some sort of connection, a talking point if you will, with your fellow shirt wearer...

also, do any of you reckon a tee with 'proper job' on it with a tractor would be good? i know it's a colloquilaism in the south west UK but it'd also be an threadless in-joke for the americans...

finally, you guys (and gals) might like this:

that's me in the 'meat is murder' tee...
i don't know which people found better - the paddling pool in parliament square or the t-shirt.

I know what you mean - like a trade. Better off having a tool box with a monkey wrench or something rather than a tractor. It's a nice idea, but not sure how well it will do on Threadless.



And 'hi' - I'm in London.

I've seen maybe three people total excluding myself and family members I bought Threadless shirts for knocking around Glasgow.

this is gonna sound strange - if you've ever watched 'Scrapheap Challenge' when the barley pickers team have been on, you might get what i mean... it's a major colloquialism i know, which means i'd have to design it really well, or think of summit else.

Either everyone is overblowing how rare 'proper job' is, or I have been without a proper job for long enough for everyone to be bombarding me with it and forgetting that most people barely have to hear the sodding phrase.

i'm an english girl in ireland who's recently taken to turning the collars of people's tee shirts to see if they're from threadless. they're wearing the designs, but i'm yet to find one with the authentic labelling. i think threadless might have other vendors over this side of the pond (i got the supposed-to-be-the-future tee from london's neal street years ago and have since found it in these here vaults).



so you may still be the extra special person in the club. :)
