Phish has incredible merchandise. The quality (American Apparel) and creativity are top notch. Whether you like them or not check out their huge dry goods store and tell me it isn't a model to shoot for.

    Pearl Jam used to have good quality shirts. Then they started using shit quality and jacked up the price.

    ^i totally agree re: shirts
    the quality has gone waaaaaaay down.

    but in shirts only. the other hard goods (stash tins, water bottles, stickers, magnets, posters, vids, boots, etc) are plentiful and high quality completely rad!!!

    and the other wearables like hats, hoodies etc are high quality and great fits

    occasionally i have issue with their shipping (lags often) but things always arrive and in great shape. plus when i ordered some things as christmas gifts i became worried they wouldnt arrive after a serious delay in leaving the warehouse, i called and spoke with someone and they upped me to overnight shipping free of charge :D

    edit to add: whoops, this diatribe is about phish merch not pj merch

    my 2003 fargo shirt is pretty durable.
    my 2005 winnipeg shirt looked see-through the minute I got it from the merch table. i was pretty disappointed.

    The sport specific shirts sold at last year's concerts are decent quality.

    didn't American Apparel get busted last year for hiring illegal immigrants and paying them like $1 an hour?

    Agreed. The Phillies shirt is thick and good quality. The blue avocado shirt from that tour is one of the thinnest piece of shit shirts I have ever seen. It's awful that they would sell something like that for that price.

    its not shitty or bad quality. an american apparel style tee costs more to make than a piece of shit hanes beefy tee. the fabric is more expensive and of a much higher quality. cashmere is also soft...it must be shit quality, right?

    also, as the poster above me said, the thin shirts are more stylish. my favorite PJ tees are the ames' with the concert poster designs on them. you can actually wear those out.

    this thread reeks of "bro"

    Thin shirts are great...way more comfy...just gotta wash in cold water and drip-dry.

    Thin shirts are difficult to rock if you have man boobs.

    Bro? dude, take your fat jokes somewhere else. they don't apply here. at least not to me.

    do you have the canadian 2005 tour shirt? do you? well the one I have is SHIT quality. the design on the front started to crack instantly, and the collar started to come away from the body of it shortly thereafter. Then a hole in the underarm. And I didn't even wear it that often, and no, I am not fat and it's not tight on me. At all. It's a piece of garbage.

    Comparing the delicate nature of cashmere to the flaws of a American Apparel (or whatever mine is) T is ludicrous.

    that's the one I have. and it's shyte. I knew it before I even put it on. I will say, it's the ONLY PJ clothing I've ever had a problem with. I know several others that also had that shirt, and thought the same thing.

    I don't remember, what did the other T's look like?
