ok, my shopping cart is waiting on this one design. Any time DBH staff is ready…
A reprint, particularly in medium, would be appreciated. Thank you.
I agree with mhmiles! Is the $14 sale sign just there to annoy us even more ? D:
They will reprint eventually. Hopefully they reprint enough that the masses will be satisfied. I am among the waiting.
FOR god sake this company doesnt know how to make money obviously because so many people want this shirt and there supply is so limited
The discharged ink sort of ruined the T shirt for me. There are a lot of ink marks in white top right portion of the T shirt and makes it look like it was a home stenciled shirt.
The white portion of the t shirt also isn’t as white as in the picture. It is like a darker egg shell white. This makes for less of a contrast.
Don’t expect your t shirt to look exactly like the picture.
I work all day, every week day, 40 hours a week… and come home to see if this has gotten a reprint.
I’m always afraid that when it does finally get reprinted, it’ll be while I’m at work.
Praying for some luck in the future… c’mon reprint!
Mrs. Cary? Mr. Scary? If you have a computer with internet at work, just set the home page to be this shirt. That or try to work something out with twitter.
Mr. Scary if you’re nasty. It’s a song by Dokken, an instrumental guitar masterpiece of George Lynch’s. Anywho, I’m a landscaper and there’s no computer for me at work… but yes, I do have this exact page as a favorite and click it as soon as I log on. If anything, that explanation was something of a plea in more articulate means.
Ok for all of you who want to know what this shirt is like.. this is the deal.
The design is awesome, not question about that. The shirt itself when you receive it, will be stuck together, like it’s got weak glue on the inside. No way you’re gonna wear it like that..right? So wash it. Then wash it again. Then I washed it again. Still sticky. But f**kt, there was an event on and I wanted to wear my new shirt..damnit. So I did. And it was STILL sticky. In fact, it was so sticky that when I came home and took it off to go shower, there was this sticky residue on parts of me.. and the black tshirt fibres had stuck to the sticky bits. And it wouldn’t come off easily with some soap and water..etc. Took at least 2-3 showers to get that crap off.
Soooo..I washed the shirt again, and once more, just to be sure. And now it’s ok. Still a tiny amount of stickiness, but I’m ok with that. It DOES NOT BREATHE OK, to those who say it does, thats just stupid. The paint clogs up the fabric, and it feels heavy. Small sacrifice for having a cool tshirt? I think so.
Anyway, that is my story. It’s a kickass design, and if you’re willing to run it through the wash serveral times and potentially be sticky and uncomfortable, then get it now..apparently it’s available again.
oh man syke that sucks. Did you contact DBH about it? I hope that’s just a mistake and not on all of these prints. I was really looking forward to getting this. Thanks for that info though.
this is actually my dream shirt… its a long story.. but I’m not sure about it after what syke had to say.. I bought “I love hitchcock” and I had to wash it before I wore it because it was practically glued together.. but it was cool after one washing… that’s what I love about threadless, you can wear it the same day.. but before you wash it, threadless seems a little big.. I’m a threadless fan at heart… designbyhumans is just my alternate.
Btw, I wasn’t trying to discourage anyone from buying the shirt, I’m just letting you know what to be prepared for. I still think it’s a great shirt, it’s just the reality about the type of ink process used.
REPRINT!
