@effinbirds I wish they were made of something other than "stretch polyester". That's a big fat "nope".

@herveus I'm not aware of other good options. What kind of materials are the ones you own made of, and how's the bleed on the fine lines / small text / fine detail?

@effinbirds Rayon is what I'm accustomed to seeing. It's a much nicer fiber, but probably costs more, raising the prices. I don't know if that is an option with your sources. Silk would be outstanding and stupid expensive. I only mention it for completeness.

@herveus if you can send me some close-up photos of fine print on either, I'll try to figure out what's holding back our manufacturer from achieving the same results. The tests I saw were just not acceptable.

@effinbirds I only have this one shirt. I hope this helps. A number of my friends were shown the What The Fuck shirt and were excited until seeing the fiber.

@herveus that's some pretty significant bleeding in the darks — this whole image would collapse, I'd have to scale the print much bigger to compensate.
