yep, the t-shirts are terrific! Good quality and i dig the packaging too. shipping from LA to Cincinnati took just a couple of days. Kudos to the designers and to Archinect.
For those of you that have received them, do the sizes run larger/smaller than typical? Unfortunately different t-shirt makers have different variants in sizes (i.e. American Apparel's shirts run a bit smaller than your generic Hanes or Fruit of the Loom.) and this is something I typically check out before buying a shirt.
if you buy a "vintage" shirt off of ebay or at your local salvation army, you'll notice that the size "runs small," just like aa. so my thinking is that fruit of the loom realised that americans are getting fatter by the day and started running their sizes a little larger (at times a full size up).
props to aa for not pretending a medium is a small...
Phreak, I have to agree with you on that one. I recently bought a large pack of "Hanes" white t-shirts (undershirts). Last time I bought plain white t-shirts was 3-4 years ago. Not only was the XL size 1-2 sizes too big, but it almost reached my knees! Without trying to sound racist ...etc. I too have noticed that certain ethnic groups wear these same shirts (not tucked in) 3 sizes too large for them. Like you stated, is this a reaction to the ever increasing waistline of america + fashin trend?
got mine yesterday too. i wore the arch sucks one to school. a few people recognised it off the site. several professors liked it. got 2 XLs. the sucks one fits well. but the male cathedral robot one is sized much bigger. it seems like it's a nightgown. gotta return it. paul or javier? is return/exchange an option?
crillywazzy - if a t-shirt does not fit as expected, our policy is to have the buyer return the shirt in new/unused condition. we will then provide a full refund for that shirt. you then may order another shirt in a different size. i sent you an email with more information.
i'm wearing my "architecture sucks" t-shirt at school right now and so far it's gotten quite a few laughs, though mostly from jealous landscaper and urban planning students ;)
Carl Spackler: This is a hybrid. This is a cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus-belt that night on this stuff.

Shirt sizes are just right. (yes, aa shirts run really small)
If I had to compare...Fruit of the Loom
just out of boredom...

There is a Size Chart next to the price on the TShirt page, but anyway, here it is also...
just measure your favorite t shirt and pick the size accordingly. Paul says that the shirt did not shrink upon washing.
