Landing Strip: Garment Dyed Tee

I enjoy pushing the bounds of propriety but just enough so that someone could put their merch on and still go out in public. An uncommon feature of this t-shirt, and what I like best of course, is that you can see the pussy. I would ask that you go to, say, Starbucks and snap some photos. It would warm my heart to see Landing Strip getting some much-deserved recognition. 

As far as Landing Strip's bio...let me think. Most likely a metal band with a chick lead singer. They were put on the map when she began exposing her bush when she took the stage. 

The Landing Strip tour shirt comes on the most vintage looking tee that you're likely to come across. If you didn't know any better, you would think that the manufacturer created this line of tees for the sole purpose of being the vessel for fake band merch.  

While the merch looks the part, the irony is that this store is fueled only by weapons-grade inauthenticity. While the quest for curated authenticity is thriving, feel a sense of righteousness by embracing some band merch satire. Wear your Landing Strip gear and, whatever you're up to, it will make an impression. 

Now, then - my thoughts on the Comfort Colors Pigment Dyed T-shirt:

-It's the greatest t-shirt of all.

-The signature characteristic of pigment dyeing is the unevenness of color which creates a muted and weathered appearance. There's a little bit of fade which looks even better over time.

-The tee is made of mid-weight, pre-shrunk U.S. 100% cotton. It has a soft, broken-in feel and hangs like a t-shirt should. It doesn't cling which means that air can make contact with your skin. Air feels good on your skin.

-Direct-To-Garment (DTG) is the printing method used here and it looks particularly awesome on this shirt. If you look closely, you can see fabric fibers coming through the printed design. The look is unmistakably organic - like the designs grew there. You'll see what I mean.

-Cheap souvenir-shop quality shirts are great for profit margins and that's why they're the norm. I like making a few extra dollars as much as the next guy but I don't want to run things like that. 

-Rather, my aim is for the customer to get a grin on their face as they unpack their order. I'm confident that the goal has been achieved because that big grin is what I experience when I unbox my sample orders. This tee is more expensive that some and, although I keep my profit margin modest, that's the reason that my shirts are more expensive that some you'll come across. The extra few bucks are well worth it. Again, you'll see what I mean.

-Lastly, Comfort Colors operates ethically. They're a member of the US Cotton Trust Protocol which ensures an ethical and sustainable means of production. Additionally, they have a bunch of cool initiatives in relation to environmental stewardship and treating people with fairness and inclusion. They don't go overboard in praising themselves but if you Google them, you'll see that their heart in the right place.

 Alternative Options:

-Feel free to email me if you prefer an alternative color or size. I can usually accommodate and am happy to help.

-Likewise, please let me know if you are interested in having an item personalized. I may need to charge a reasonable additional fee for personalizing which would be based on the complexity of the design change.

-Consider customized fake band merch for group gatherings, as part of a costume, or perhaps a family portrait. Message me and we'll come up with a plan!
