Always wanted to buy one like this... but I don\'t think it was for sale. :)

If anyone's wondering, it's based off a similar shirt with a Fedex package. I spent ages trying to find out where to buy that one after seeing a picture of it online... no luck at all, so I'm pretty sure it was either photoshopped or something someone created themselves for fun.

So after all that searching, I gave up and decided to create one here!

I believe a Russian company makes it, probably why it is impossible to find a place to buy it.

P.s. don't get me wrong, I still 5$'d it.
Engineer
Engineer on Jul 31 '06
Yeah, that's the one!

I wonder how the company was able to escape copyright infringement though... there's no way Fedex would have approved that. :o

But if anyone can find that store... email me right away! :) I want that shirt badly!

I like the little note in the bottom right. Definite 5 from me.

   bortwein on Jul 31 '06
I like the concept but my only worry is that from the front this shirt will be really boring in design. If the front area of the letter had something more going on then this would be stellar.

The whole design could be shifted to the other side of the shirt... then the "THREADLESS" part would be on the front.

I love it, and after checking out the link for the russian one, i get the reason for the placement!

my husband wanted one of these too. although it's been done, i respect the fact that you didn't try to say that it was your original idea.

A big problem I see with this shirt is having a huge block of white ink. That would be very uncomfortable, especially since white is often a heavy ink.
biesdesignstudio
biesdesignstudio on Aug 01 '06
you had a 5$ from me, but since its a blatant copy (brilliant text replacement aside) I had to bump it down to a 4$. yes. I'd still buy it. I'd be thrilled to buy it. It's the best knock-off I've seen to date.
Ra-Ra
Ra-Ra on Aug 01 '06
I agree with tracerbullet on the white ink...that will be uncomfortable. But it is an awesome idea, maybe try a different shipping company so you can change the color of the package :) :P

SO cool! Loves it.

Hmm, maybe a brown version knocking off UPS... though it'll be hard to squeeze "Threadless" into that logo. :) Maybe "THL"!

With the brown shirt, the package needs only to be outlined in light brown or gold... I can try to whip something up in a few days.

love it, but i thought you couldn't go over seams on threadless subs...
Engineer
Engineer on Aug 01 '06
I believe that seams only run around the sleeve, and above the shoulders. To my knowledge, there are no seams on the sides of the shirt...?
waffletaxi
waffletaxi on Aug 01 '06
Correct, no seams on the side. I'm wearing a Threadless right now, and the only seams are on the sleeves. =)

Alas, no $: I don't wear advertising.

"I wonder how the company was able to escape copyright infringement though... there's no way Fedex would have approved that. :o"

In Russia copyright infringes YOU! Seriously though, I think this might be along the same lines as bootlegged dvds from China. And nice 5 for you.
lcarroll
lcarroll on Aug 01 '06
what if it was an old Shakespeare manuscript or sheets of music? That way the incredible idea still gets accross but there is no problem with copyright infingment... just an idea!

$5!

You're allowed to borrow intellectual and creative property for the use of parodies. Look at SNL skits and the Daily Show.

I want the original FedEx version. The spinoff just doesnt cut it. If FedEx were smart they'd just make their own. But I wouldnt count on it.
jar_bombadillo
jar_bombadillo on Aug 03 '06
hm... i don't know. i just really dislike shirts that advertise threadless. no matter how good the shirt is i always have that lurking in the back of my mind... i don't know why, i don't mind the stickers, i just don't like ads on shirts.

I'll bet that Fedex made those and then paid people to walk around major urban areas while wearing them. This just seems to be an obvious ad campaign to me.

Just because you can't find the place to by the shirt doesn't mean you should rip it.

this better not win... it was clever...when fed ex did it...and just because you can't find it and want it really bad doesn't give you an excuse to copy....or maybe i am just bitter.

I don't see how you can rip this idea off you've even swiped their model which is a copyright infringment in itself - it goes against everything this competition stands for - O in the post!

Choyboy on Aug 16 '06
where can you get the original russian one? this is the next best thing, it should totally be made...the threadless part makes it different enough, sure the concept is ripped off but who gives a shit.

This is awesome! $5.00! About the white ink: what if you did this on a white shirt? I know it wouldn't *pop* as much as on a dark color shirt, but it would use the white background, so no white ink needed. Perhaps you could then add a bit of a drop shadow to help the illusion? And I agree, switch it to the left side, so the "ThreadLess" part shows from the front.
