Hey,
Recently I bought some new skateboard tees and the quality is absolute garbage. It’s like half the Oz rating of cotton material I have seen. It WASN’T purchased through BW. Paying $40-$50 a tee and getting a piece of rag is just getting annoying in the industry. I got a Expedition One tee which is from Kayo corp and the quality is still there but if I took one fall with the others they would just rip.
Anyone know of companies still producing quality garments?
Thanks :DDD
Yeah that is true with brands getting useless with the quality of the garments. Originally they were saying that it is a softer and more premium garment. Then bang they went rubbish. I remember when t-shirts were done by Gildan and Fruit of the Loom, the quality was always there.
I pretty much stopped buying skate brand tees a while ago as I didn’t see the point in buying tees that cost a fortune and didn’t last. Upon saying I remember Passport doing some quality tees. Other than that Analog did a decent 3 pack of blank tee for the price of a single tee. Bonds tees perhaps.
In conclusion though bkrton I do agree with you on the quality going to pieces these days.
