Over the years, our company has always been a leader when it comes to the retail sales of music action figures and toys through our website at
Rock-n-Roll-Action-Figures.com, but did you know that we sell all kinds of
music merchandise? We have been selling licensed
band t-shirts for years, but the new shirts that manufacturers are making this year are just plain awesome!
We're seeing more vintage inspired band t-shirts being produced by our t-shirt suppliers than ever before. Although the t-shirts aren't truely vintage band t-shirts, I really think they're even cooler. Why pick up a vinatage band shirt that may have imperfections, stains, or holes, when you can get the same shirts brand new?
Many of the new vintage band t-shirt designs that we are currently carrying include some great details that make them as awesome as the orignals. First off, the process of creating distressed prints on the shirts to give them a vintage look has been perfected by all of the major manufacturers of band t-shirts. To top it off, the t-shirts themselves have also changed (for the better). The new vintage band t-shirts are no longer stiff, rigid, heavy duty t-shirts. Many of the manufacturers that are trying to mimic vintage band t-shirts are now using premium t-shirts for printing. For example, companies like Impact Merchandise and Live Nation Merchandising are printing these vintage syles on 30/1 or higher threadcount t-shirts. A standard t-shirt typically has a 18/1 thread count. That means that there are about 18 threads per inch that make up the t-shirt. A 30/1 t-shirt has 30 threads per inch. In addition, the threads in the t-shirts are not as thick as the threads that make up a normal shirt. This give the 30/1 premium shirts an amazingly soft feel and they also seem to fit a little closer to the body... just like an old vintage tee that's been washed a million times. To get even closer to the real thing, these manufacturers are also using enzyme washing to treat t-shirts. Enzyme washing is a process that uses enzymes to start to break down the cotton fibers in the t-shirts to give them a truely vintage look and feel. How awesome is that! Enzyme washed t-shirts are typically a few dollars more expensive than a standard shirt, but the style and feel of these shirts is amazing!
