If the design is on the front, I can't tell if people are looking at the design or staring at my tits. And I kinda need to know who I should punch and who I shouldn't x)

I've always found this awkward because I stare at tits but they assume I'm reading their shirt
Fair enough
Hell ya! Cause you didn't spend that much money on an uncomfortable bra to have those tatas ignored!
I think its really cool to have a big beautiful design on the back. I have a vety broad back tho so i might be biased but i think its clean to have the front be uncluttered.
Nah it's cool
Mine are on the inside sometimes 😞
I hate when that happens. Gotta be a manufacturing error. It happens to me all the time with spoons as well, I'm eating with one normally, and then suddenly it turns inside out and can't grab any soup!
Enshittification has gone too far.
Long sleeves, design on the front, design on the back, design on the sleeves.
Long sleeves on the front, short sleeves on the back
I bet you're a metal fan that likes a certain drippy moon on their merch.
Nah my favorite panel shirt is a Cryptopsy shirt. Which band has the drippy moon?
Leviathan! 😆
Oh!! Haha no I'm not a fan.
THANK YOU!
Just wear it the other way around...
Then it touches the front of your neck! 💀😭🪦🤮
can't have it all ;)
Even worse when the design is that plasticky kind of decal rather than the one that becomes more part of the fabric
Basically makes the shirt unusable in summer
They also create weak points along their edge since it needs to bend more to make up for the stiffness of the plastic part. It'll start coming apart there before the neck frays.
Those use to be pretty popular when I was growing up, I hated them. So much so that I barely buy t-shirts these days unless its a free shirt from some company
These are known as Direct to Film or DTF (lol). They are quite literally a printed plastic sheet that’s melted to the shirt. Easiest way to check for this is to crease the shirt on the design. Screenprinted will reveal the shirt color underneath where DTF will be a solid sheet.
I hate those
Absolutely disagree. If I'm wearing a graphic t, I'd much rather the graphic be on the back. Graphic on the front feels trashy, ala 3 Wolf Moon.
Im almost always wearing some sort of a sweater/jacket/cardigan etc
Yeah. Shows your belly
I’d rather have it in the back because sometimes the print feels stiff and uncomfortable and sometimes boobies stretch out the image.
My issue with the back is I have long hair so my hair will cover the design! But the front my tits will make that image...real real stretchy.
Stupid human bodies!!
They’re always on and under my boobs too?? Like it would be one thing if it was on my chest but there’s a big open area of nothing with a design only on or under my boobs? I think they’re just not made with women in mind 90% of the time even when it’s sold in women’s sizes
100%. we live in a man’s world.

I also hate when I check the sizing chart and the base shirt is a unisex cut Gildan.
Shit material that fits weirdly on any human body and when used as a silk screening blank, are overpriced as fuck for the quality they offer.
If I had to guess, this avoids the classic case of staring at someone a little too long to read their shirt. The shirt design isn’t so much for the wearer, it’s a billboard to others. Also, printing on the front has much more noticeable texture than printing on the back which would make the surface a bit uncomfortable across the entire front as opposed to the back where you’ll hardly notice the feel.
Even the best screen printing techniques have at least a bit of feel to them.
I hate it when its the other way around. I feel like a fancy design on the back and minimalist one on the front has more flair. But this is clearly subjective
Omg same. And I often wear a button down over a t-shirt, which is mildly annoying with that configuration
