Designs that should have never been printed! (5)

Published on February 8th, 2008. By , under General.

 

I could grab several designs from some of the smaller stores but instead I wanted to focus on the larger commerce sites that should know better.

 

Threadless:

What the hell is this suppose to be anyway’s? Just looks like crap to me. At least im not the only one confused by this.

Ah! Tasteless. I am okay with a little vulgar or tasteless designs but this one is just plain ugly. Good luck on wearing this one in public. I can’t believe threadless would let this go to the printers.

Design by humans:

Great blur, you just paid for a purple blur. What did you think, that everyone walks around with 3d glasses nailed to their heads?

I hated this one when it first came out on Christmas day, and I still hate the site of it.

The first one is from so long ago… WAY before Threadless was anywhere near to ‘big’. The second one is actually really popular… People think 3D-esque t-shirts are cool, even if you can’t see the effect. And the last one is ugly, but that’s kind of the point.

I guess I should have mentioned that the first one was reprinted because Threadless has been reprinting some of their really old designs, I guess to make people think they can own a part of history or something?

Yeah I think the whole its a 3d shirt is just a fad for a select few but that’s just my .002

Have to agree with you on most of these tees, but there’s something magical about the moment when a new unicorn is conceived that needs to find it’s place on a t-shirt. Seriously, why do you think it wouldn’t print well? Is it the white on the light blue? That might be the point. That a person really has to inspect the shirt from close-up to “get it.” That way you don’t offend the mall walkers.

Also, I certainly hope your opinion is worth more than .2 cents. At least it is to us…

Agree with the first, terrible shirt. The second is one of the most iconic and well known Threadless tees of all – and I love it – but you are of course entitled to your opinion.

The third … ack, shocking. 3D tees will never, ever be cool.

The fourth … well it is bad, but intentionally so? Like retro ugly.
