OK, some quick questions. I'm seeing that some of the new designs are still being printed on American Apparel shirts, but only the designs being printed on black. Are they actually being printed on AA shirts? Is this just because they have leftover black AA shirts? What's the situation?

Sorry if this has been answered somewhere else, I did look, but I might just not be very good at finding things.

from what I've observed, usually they print shirts on White/black/non-cool colored AA shirts.

I doubt they have leftovers. I think they've ordered more because they can't meet demand with the Threadless stuff. It is usually the plain colours, which are also the more common ones.

They printed on the organic cotton for the Earth week winner and everything else that week was regular AA but there's usually one or two a week that are on AA now.

I have the same questions after noticing that black shirts are printed on AA. I have black selects and imo they feels so much better than the AA ones.

I actually prefer the AA shirts. I bought a shirt printed on a Threadless tee shortly after they made the change, and I really don't like the way it fits. Haven't bought one since just because I don't enjoy wearing the one I have. But if I know for sure that certain shirts are being printed on AA, I can starting buying shirts again!



Not trying to be a downer on Threadless having their own tees, good for them and all. I just prefer AA.
