Yeah, interesting - they all seem off from each other. I think some of this can be explained by the comments made by our screen printing pal:
"Lots of possible explanations. If one has been washed more the colors could have faded. Could have been different ink batches. Less detail could mean printers not caring what they churned out as long as they met their quota. Registration could have been off. Sometimes the dryer temperature affects the colors as they cure. Probably many more reasons. Our printers sometimes couldn't match a print week to week.
It looks like the one you say is faded has a lot more underlay going down. The underlay filling in would contribute to the loss of detail."
I can't imagine someone going through that much trouble for a BB tee. And haven't seen a fake Winterland tag like that, ya know?

I just don't know why someone would go through so much trouble to fake a BSB tee, ya know? Like how much are they actually selling for? It does look like it's a poor-quality print. Unless that's a new fake tag I'm not aware of. I'll dig on it.
Initially, I thought the chest was big for an XL but this one is similar:

oh. i wasn't aware of it. BSB tee sells at a pretty good price here in our country for some reason. especially if it's a big print rap tee stylejimmyj wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2023 11:15 am I just don't know why someone would go through so much trouble to fake a BSB tee, ya know?
