Fine Jersey Tees, how's the quality compared to American Apparel?
Threadless seems to be printing more and more shirts on the Fine Jersey Tees, and I'm a bit afraid to order them. All of my shirts I ordered that were threadless's own brand shrunk and warped terribly. Now I can't wear any of them, but the American Apparel have been fantastic! My Threadless brand shirts would shrink to nearly half the length and stay the same width. Essentially, I now have some shirts that are practically a square with sleeves. So, I only order AA now and completely ignore a shirt if it's only printed on Threadless's brand, which is sad because there are some shirts I would have LOVED to order, but didn't because it wasn't printed on AA.

Well, now there's the Fine Jersey Tees. How's the quality compared to AA? Threadless says they're preshrunk, and are the same size as a washed American Apparel. Is that true? How do the fine Jersey Tees hold up? Does the material wear out and get ticks quickly? Does the design hold up pretty well on the material?

Ok, so I ordered two Fine Jersey tees amongst my amongst my AA tees. I always wash and dry all of the tees I order from threadless the first time, then I hand them up to dry after washing them every time after that. My verdict on the FJ tees is that they're not that different from AA as they claim. They shrink just a little bit more than AA, but it's hardly noticeable... Though, I wouldn't dry these more than once for fear of shrinking, but I'm like that with all of my shirts.



The FJ tees fit quite comfortably, quite similar to AA. I did notice the sleeves are a little shorter on the FJ, but it makes no difference to me. The material seems to be of good quality, again, not too different from AA. So, I'd have to say I'm happy with the new Fine Jersey tees. It's definitely not another Threadless Brand repeat.

ooh, good to know. i actually need to shrink my new tees a bit since it was my first order and i didn't really know what to expect. i got 3 AA and 1 fine jersey. the fine jersey and one of the AA are man size small since the Girly L was sold out. the men's ones are a bit long on me so we'll see what happens after i wash them.
