Life of Agony - AirTees vs Blue Grape

Post by spinate »

came across two of the same life of agony long sleeves that i have been on the hunt for a long time. despite that i actually never noticed there’s two different tags. blue grape being the obvious one that sells more but curious about the airtees tag? both have the same licensing on it as well.

AirTees seemed vaguely familiar, we do have one indexed here:

Not uncommon for a licensed tee to have a contradictory tag, remember, most of them didn't make the tees, they used common blanks and had their tags installed.

I think both versions are fine, both have the arm printing?

yeah blue grape has the LOA on one sleeve with the cities on the other, and the airtees just has the cities on the sleeve, but no LOA on the other.

No, they are both shirts that are listed for sale with a huge price difference on both (about $600 CAD apart) so was intrigued by the difference in pricing.

I may have answered my own question but just realized the Blue Grape has the NA cities on there and the AirTees is the Euro cities
