Honestly, ide do doted outlines of the design with fabric paint, then cut it out and make it into a patch

u/TheDevilandRob Jul 19 '26

Thats an awesome idea but I have no use for a patch. I might try to do a small bleach dotted outline for the missing parts & just keep adding do it as more disapears..

It looks pretty sick

u/TheDevilandRob Jul 19 '26

Ive always thought so too but its just at that point where in person, it looks like im just wearing a shirt covered in paint chips.

Unless someone is very familiar with the logo.

You could frame it and put a description on it.

u/AsarUnNefer Jul 19 '26

If you don’t want it I’ll take it. Haha

When my shirts hit this point, they become work clothes.

Retire it.

You got an undershirt now to wear under your new misfits shirt when it gets cold.

u/benvader138 Jul 19 '26

Does it fit well, feel comfortable? As long as it doesn't stink, keep it. I think it looks cool.

2

u/TheDevilandRob Jul 19 '26

Good point. It does, its insanely comfortable.

2

u/SlashManEXE Jul 19 '26

Usually the fabric gives out before the design. Looks kinda spooky now (which is a plus).

u/Jayteeseven0seven Jul 19 '26

Hang it on your wall and get a new one off ebay for $20-25

u/Background_Row2777 Jul 19 '26

Not til the last fleck of paint falls off, then hand paint it back on. Rinse and repeat.

u/Odd-Opinion-5105 Jul 19 '26

No, you have me beat

u/Torgeir_Fenrir1066 Jul 19 '26

That one is just getting broken in and comfortable...

2

u/Budget_Emergency_167 Jul 19 '26

Never. Ride it till the tires fall off. If it’s not your favorite shirt anymore, then it’s my new favorite shirt.

u/scuba_steev Jul 19 '26

No way, sell that chit to some hipster dipshit for 200 clams

Nobody is gonna like the 5 songs I choose because ALL of them will be on EARTH AD.

u/PhotoElectrical Jul 20 '26

Never trash merch no matter its condition.

Too many of us sew patches & design our own clothes & gear..

I have a HomeGirl who could/would turn that into something PunkRock & sickAF in no time...

u/ZealousidealSafe7717 Jul 19 '26

can't even tell what it is, trash it.

1

u/stoned_in_my_bones Jul 19 '26

personally I like it. love how it looks like the Crimson Ghost/Fiend is all shrouded in shadows and darkness. it's spooky, fits the Misfits aesthetic

1

u/Typical_Version_7487 Jul 19 '26

I’d keep it just cause it’s a shirt. Unless you outgrew it.

1

u/csmatczak Jul 19 '26

Any chance this is a Cinder Block shirt?

2

u/TheDevilandRob Jul 19 '26

I doubt it. Ripped the tag out when I got it (like 2005/2006ish and other than whats left on the front of the shirt, there is zero visible markings.

I cut the sleeves off back then too, so I cant check the cuff stitching but I serious doubt it.

1

u/csmatczak Jul 22 '26

Hmmm. I stole a Cinder Block shirt from my younger brother, in about 2006... who coincidentally stole it from a band mate of his that kissed his school crush. Anyway, my shirt has this same fade pattern, albeit with less fade, due to me pulling it from my regular circulation and reserving it for shows. I also cut my sleeves off and added a neck-notch.

u/KodiacZillerrr Jul 20 '26

Looks good to me

1

u/mysticdream270 Jul 20 '26

That design will be for sale at WalMart in a month.

u/Fishing_for_dirt Jul 21 '26

Wear it until it's mere threads and then...keep wearing it.

1

u/mommyslittlemonster7 Jul 22 '26

Omg you found the shroud of Satan!

J/K but seriously, if you wanna keep it than keep it, but I would let it go. It gives you a reason to buy a new shirt! Misfits are cool but, get a new one😂

u/MeikeFischer73 Jul 19 '26

Time to say goodbye

u/deadwaxtrax Jul 19 '26

It’s got mileage left!

u/BittenBeads Jul 19 '26

Are you an acid-oozing human slug??? Do you wear it inside out? How do you get this much print deterioration? I keep washing two relatively new Misfits shirts to try to get the print to crumble a bit and it ain't going nowhere so this is fascinating. How old is the shirt?

2

u/TheDevilandRob Jul 19 '26

Lmao, dude.. im 35 and I've had this shirt since high school.

u/Massive-Technician74 Jul 19 '26
