When you buy a tshirt what do you look for:
1 Colour?
2 How it fits you?
3 Print ie the graphics?
4 Quality of shirt?
5 Brand? ie you want to buy into the Element/Vans lifestyleI am doing some research into why we buy brands?
Would you buy a Vans tshirt if it was the best design ever but they only had it in a medium and it was slightly tight on you - BECAUSE you like the brand?
Just trying to get as much info as possible??

I bought a honda t-shirt in japan that was a little too small for me as I had never seen them for sale before and I wanted the pink one, not the brown one.
It does give me a touch of the gay though.

6. You don't care about the design, you don't care about the brand, you don't care how it feels ... you just want everyone who sees it to know you are better than them. By wearing a t-shirt.

If I'm out shopping, and I like the design (graphics etc) of a t-shirt, I'll try it on. If it fits properly I'll buy it. I wouldn't buy a t-shirt that didn't fit well because of the design.

I hate tshirts that are tight round the neck and under the pits.

Interesting opinions so far...
We then discussed brand names...
Alot of them are random and dont mean anything...
So with that in mind if you saw these brands (random):
Cherry
Brown
Lane
Awake
Spot
Book
Badge
Hudsonproviding you like the graphics and for example it said one of the above words on it - you would buy it??
I do feel that NON designers are more brand led ie it would be Ben Sherman over a plain white shirt (no label on pocket) anyday??
Your thoughts???

I always go for the illustration and also the way it fits. I usually never look at the brand or quality. I've had a lot of crappy shirts because of that, but hey, they always looked good.

I have an awful lot of plain white t-shirts just because they're simple and don't go out of fashion. I usually regret buying t-shirts with graphics on them a few months down the line.
I also hate t-shirts with big neck holes, or even worse v-neck t-shirts.
