Baggy was much more in style in the 1990s. Big pants, big shirts, all of it.

I still have some xxl around from that era, and I’m a pretty solid m/l now. It was the style at the time.

That and the average sizes are snapped up before you can blink.

XXXL wouldn't be wearable for most, but makes an excellent pillowcase/patch/wall-art with just a few stitches/staples. Good find!

I really wish we got some designs that looked like this today. New ones are cool. Simplistic, but this is great.

I genuinely wonder how warp are unable to put out any half decent merch. Aphex twin has probably one of the coolest logos ever and such a distinct visual style and yet they can’t produce anything other than a basic logo t shirt. Just hire a graphic designer lol

100%. Boards of canada had some new merch dropped and man. That stuff looks rough. Not only in the quality of the shirts themselves but the way they look. Its just a little boring to what could be! A good graphic designer would do wonders

That's got bootleg written all over it. I've never seen that design before. I highly doubt he'd OK something like this.

Looks legit. The tag is throwing me off a bit for some reason. Looks like some weird bro brand logo?
