3D rip? Or just a cool t?

Post by stage1dave »

Carrying on the endless 3D trucker t saga :roll: I came across this gem in a "lot" buy a couple months back, and finally got around to takin some pics yesterday.

On the whole, a pretty nice t. Material feels good, and the print quality is above average with tight registration; with the exception of lack of vibrancy in the brighter colours.

I'm not familiar enuff with the HD catalouge to know whether this is a rip of an existing design, but there is NO c/r marks anywhere (front or back) nor any year markings, etc; so I'm assuming the worst :lol:

Tags are kinds reminicient of an old SS brand, no? Btw, it does state "made in Thailand" on the obverse of the tag.

Best Fabric Good Design! love it. A cool tee just stumped on how old. An SS Best knock off so maybe even late 80s? Or is it recent years to leverage to Thaiand and Malaysia 3d craze? I dont know if they could have pulled off that intense of a print years back...so maybe recent.

Not 3D but definitely cool design.

I was wondering how old this was as well :? I kept thinking it can't be too "old" because the shirt shows little (if any) wear, but then I went and looked at a few of my personal black t's from the 80's and they look just as good.

Guess it wasn't worn much, or whoever owned it looked after it!
