The tour shirts are all Bella. Imo there shit for what you pay. They are so thin and such a thin print. They need to go back to anvil organic or Bayside. Even the tultex ones are better.
The olive green shirts with the black print are really a bit thin. The black shirts for women with the dove of peace are also rather thin (also the print) but very comfortable to wear. The quality of the black tour shirts is much better, especially the print is great. Fortunately, the print on all shirts does not come off even after washing...

Anyone who has bought a hoodie/jumper? Thoughts on those?

I always air dry the shirts. They last a lot longer and don’t seem to shrink.
Absolutely - XL fit me perfect but I never put them in the dryer. Cold/warm wash and hang to dry and they don’t shink or get beat up in the dryer. Good for years and years. My wife, who is small and very fit, wears a women’s XL which is crazy. I have the army green, grey crewneck and then the peace dove for the Mrs - all nice. The only show shirt I have is the Vegas from the bundle and is is very light weight.

I do this too, somehow it has still happened. Never mind!
I always wash mine inside out on a gentle cycle with mild detergent but no fabric softener. I always hang them on a hanger to dry (then you don't have to iron them). But sometimes you get one that isn't of such good quality. I have one where the pressure literally crumbled off after the first wash...well, I wear that as a sleep shirt

I also never put my shirts in the dryer. One trip through the dryer is instant shrinkage and cracked print for any of the recent shirts. I think Bella is kinda garbage compared to other brands they’ve used. And the woman’s shirt sizes are ridiculous. They should just be called kids sizes. Ok I’m done ranting…
I hope they go back to putting the main graphic on the front of the shirt. I would like to see it while I'm wearing it. I get that this has made the show specific shirts distinct from the general tour shirts, which IS nice, but I want to be able to see the design. They don't look like anything special from the front, and actually many are.

Lol rant on. They need to hear it. The shirts suck
I know there’s an outdoor merch tent opening hours before the shows. They’re still selling these shirts indoors at the venue correct !?! (Yeah I haven’t been to a show in a minute.)
