rocket ignites Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 ^ Yep, the rust orange is one of my favorites. I definitely prefer to wear a basic grey tee under the thin/slim fitting retro style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John V Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 Well the new tee's arrived yesterday. My fears are realised. Cheap, thin, cloth. 100% cotton, but the quality of a good undershirt.I guess the only way to get quality is to buy the shirt, then get the logo or whatever design you want added afterwards. Also, there were no concert venues listed on the back. So maybe for the Europeans, this could be good news for you. Which shirts, and from where did you order them? Backstage Club.Maybe I expect to much from a tee shirt. My wife really likes hers. I think/assume they are the same quality as if you bought a 4 pack of undershirts at Walmart.I have other tee's that are thicker and evidently have a higher thread count. I wish i knew more about thread count. I could use that as a barometer for quality.Anyway we got em and when we get to the show, we are going to look real hard at the merchandize to see if we got the same quality. Same product? The shirts I've bought from Backstage Club have all been really heavy material shirts. Much more so than any pack of undershirts you can buy. In fact they're so thick I rarely wear them in the summer because they're so warm. Well then the Backstage Club sent in me an enferior product?I just looked at the tag and it said M&O_________Heavy Now that i looked and checked it out better, it is a better shirt than the cheap shirts in Walmart. But not by much.I have other tee's in my closet (yes, I hang up tee shirts) that are much higher quality and they were alot cheaper. My COS tee from "Hot Topic" is the same quality as the ones we just got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanadu Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I'm running out of closet space...wait until the R40 gear arrives. (gasp) Honestly, I am at a point where I just can't buy anything else if I want to avoid my bedroom looking like a "Hoarders" episode. I am actually looking to move and get a bigger place. If I do that, I can buy stuff again but right now it's just not a good idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(gasp)My next piece of gear will be picked up at the show in Atlanta most likely. I hope they have some cool stuff to chose from and the prices aren't to crazy... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocket ignites Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I'm guessing Backstage will have the new R40 gear on the website right after opening night May 8...they seem to be right on time for each tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind it on a polo, but wouldn't want that for a T-shirt, but I'm fashion unconscious anyway. I'm extremely picky about stuff like that. I posted the tag labeling a page or so back. They are thin and i am not sure if its on purpose or they are just cheap undershirts with the R-40 logo on the front. There are also no concert venues on the back.I just know if i had the opportunity to feel the material before buying them, I would not have bought them. I am also very picky and I have a very hard time buying clothes because of this.The shirts we got from Backstage Club are nice for a day at the beach. But will suck for a night with Rush.
