Quality of 10C Merch...

PldgMyGrievance

has gone downhill. I'm talking about the t-shirts and hoodies. The Crash and Stickman hoodies are are very thin and flimsy, nothing like the badassness of the Moonlight Graham hoodie. I can understand if that was done on purpose for the hoodies, but the t-shirts are now made from the cheapest thinest material. They feel like they wont survive more than 5 washes.

I bought the new version of the classic stickman t-shirt and compared to the old one its a piece of crap. The old t shirts were made from heavy, durable material that has lasted years and years.

I'm writing this in hopes that the 10C will realize most of us wouldnt mind paying a little extra for t shirts if they were made from better material.

i'm so happy they stopped with the hanes beefy tees and started using material to make shirts that you can actually wear out in public.

I asked about this and people said that the new stickman tshirt was flimsy like the 08 concert tees. I saw one in Hot Topic and checked it and it was of normal T-shirt material like Hanes or whatever. I bought that and it hasn't failed me yet. Wouldn't consider the hoodie not only cause it's ugly but I knew it would be thin. It's like a $52 long sleeve t shirt IMO

I cant not agree with you here, the quality of the the Wembley t-shirt is outstanding, washed like 10 times already since I got it and its still the same shape and color.

Crash hoodies are that thin, they are ALL that thin that's the signature look of this work.

The Stickman hoodie is definately thinner than the Moonlight Graham but I wouldn't it isn't exactly flimsy.

Signature look? Do you mean to imply that using quality materials would be unstylish? For $55 or whatever, i want a hoodie that'll be durable enough to withstand the rigors of my job....as a computer engineer. In less that a year (and not wearing the thing every single day, obviously) my elbow has already worn through the sleeve. seriously. that's not a $50+ peice of apparel. the thing is: i love the design. I really like wearing hoodies, and if i'm going to wear a hoodie, why not PJ or MMJ! I like to show my stipes like everyone else. the problem is they both use the same vendor, and the quality of the material is poor poor poor.

i really want to buy another hoodie to replace this one, but not until they pick another vendor to manufacture their hoodies. maybe next time they create a style, they should switch vendors. how about that TEN t-shirt design on the back of a hoodie?! I'd buy that!!!!! and if the quality justifies it, i'd even pay a few bucks more.

im not concerned with the shirt quality, its the damn sizes i have a problem with
med to small, large to big blah blah blah
maybe its me, but i dont have this prob elsewhere

anyhow only a minor gripe, love the designs and styles, keep it up 10c

I have had the Owl and the Bison 2006 hoodies for almost 3 years and they are in great condition
I dont think its sucky material, they are just thin, thin doesnt mean sucky IMO.

Given to...

I love each and every piece of PJ gear. Some of the older shirts are heavier and nothing compares to the LBC hoodie in terms of pillows of love, soft , strong love!!! The newer shirts are thin, but also like buttah!!!

Some days I feel like a nut, some days I dont. With the changes in the weather and my moods, I dawn whatever feels right at the moment.

I have the Bison one aswell, I love it and it's still as good as new. I actually like the fact that it's quite thin. it's not too hot but still quite warm when it needs to be. haha.

so I agree, thinner material isn't necessarily sucky.

i'd have to disagree with the quality issues; i bought a few shirts and they are doing just fine

Plankton

They just need to stock t shirts in SMALL!

patrickredeyes

There shirts suck for the big dudes out there.

I agree the new tshirts are thin, I would not however say flimsy, but they do seem an inferior quality to some of the older stuff. I got a non authorized (sorry) one at the Stockholm June 2000 show, for like $20, Ive used it frequently for almost nine years, yeah I now ... Washed it without turning it inside out blabla, it looks like its been around, sure, but... the new 10C shirts dont stand a chance in comparison to a cheap off the pavement shirt, what gives. I would gladly pay extra for quality material. I never got the Quicksilver Eddie one
but that should have had better quality...anyone got it? Heavier yeah?

I got a Quicksilver Eddie shirt. It is a better shirt compared to the eV West tour, but the logo on the front faded after the first wash? :(

I saw the shirt for Ed's Hawaii shows today. Volcom is doing it. It Kicks Ass! Got Eddie ITW on the front with the Hawaiian Islands on the back. Nice quality too! Volcom said it will be available in mid May. I think you can have them shipped from the stores here like people did the 7"/shirt combos around the mainland?

Welcome to the Global Economy. We'd probably get the good stuff... it it were Made In China, instead of Made in The U.S.A. And if that hoodie was made of thick material in the U.S... it'd probably cost about 145 bucks.
