Update on Shirts

I received my test shirt and hoodie.

Initial thoughts:

OH SHIT, I FUCKED UP THE LOGO WHEN REDOING IT IN ILLUSTRATOR!!!!! DAMN IT!

Second thoughts:

quality is great, the back logo is a little too high

I am very impressed with the quality of the spreadshirt prints. I need to get some washes in them to see how they test up to Ebbs, but the quality of the flex print is pretty darn good in comparison and a good sub for the korean shirts. I really like the hoodie, wish I wouldn't of fucked up the logo.

Some pics, the bright red shirt is Ebbs made, the rest are the spreadshirt design. I already deleted the f'ed up logo and resubmitted the good logo. I think I will submit a third logo that has the circle logo and "Get your Two Wheel Fix" below it as well.

look at the top of the circle and compare to the logo at the top of the page. I just reversed the bottom of the circle when it was an entirely different design. It's not real noticeable unless you have a shitload of correct TWFix merchandise next to you.

so they used thermoflex vinyl (basically an iron on) and ebbs got a screen printed one. I will say this if applied properly thermoflex could last forever, its good shit. when I was in the shirt business i've used thermoflex vinyl and have had good results with it, but i'm not crazy about it...it is more expensive to get done than regular screen printing and regular screen printing can also last forever. the only good side about thermoflex is that you can get almost any color you want. so there are lots of pros and some cons too it. well that's my .02. let me know how the shirt holds up to washing ie, shrinking

spreadshirt offers flex, flock, and digital direct. What are your opinions of those three?
