Nah it’s cool
THANK YOU!
If the design is on the front, I can’t tell if people are looking at the design or staring at my tits. And I kinda need to know who I should punch and who I shouldn’t x)
Hell ya! Cause you didn’t spend that much money on an uncomfortable bra to have those tatas ignored!
Fair enough
Just wear it the other way around…
Then it touches the front of your neck! 💀😭🪦🤮
I think its really cool to have a big beautiful design on the back. I have a vety broad back tho so i might be biased but i think its clean to have the front be uncluttered.
Mine are on the inside sometimes 😞
I hate when that happens. Gotta be a manufacturing error. It happens to me all the time with spoons as well, I’m eating with one normally, and then suddenly it turns inside out and can’t grab any soup!
Enshittification has gone too far.
Long sleeves, design on the front, design on the back, design on the sleeves.
I bet you’re a metal fan that likes a certain drippy moon on their merch.
Nah my favorite panel shirt is a Cryptopsy shirt. Which band has the drippy moon?
Leviathan! 😆
Oh!! Haha no I’m not a fan.
Long sleeves on the front, short sleeves on the back
I like to wear aloha shirts. For a while there was a strange fad to make them with the fabric inside out so the colors were muted. Designers, amirite?
Inside-out fabrics: the dadaism of fashion.
UGH, I have some of those and almost everyone says, “Hey did you know your shirt is inside out?”
Oh really? How did I button it?!
And here I am just wanting the small thing on the front and nothing on the back. So hard to find that aren’t athletic shirts.
Pro tip: you know companies get branded shirts right? There are other companies that print/embroider them. And those companies do samples of blank shirts. Look for your local custom print shop 😉
90% of my wardrobe consists of company swag shirts and shirts from charities I work with. I just want nicer shirts from good brands without huge logos and graphics. All of the shirts I have now are that shitty Gildan brand which is cheap and inconsistent.
Can I add that dumb new trend where the logo is on the back upper left, making it seem you wore your shirt backwards like a dumbass?
Just yesterday someone I work with had a t-shirt with a small, centered inscription just below the neckline. I didn’t catch myself in time and asked if the shirt was inside out, because it really looked like the logo/information you’d see inside under the neck on the back.
I hate those. They always put the tags on the front now, too.
Absolutely disagree. If I’m wearing a graphic t, I’d much rather the graphic be on the back. Graphic on the front feels trashy, ala 3 Wolf Moon.
Im almost always wearing some sort of a sweater/jacket/cardigan etc
I’d rather have it in the back because sometimes the print feels stiff and uncomfortable and sometimes boobies stretch out the image.
My issue with the back is I have long hair so my hair will cover the design! But the front my tits will make that image…real real stretchy.
Stupid human bodies!!
They’re always on and under my boobs too?? Like it would be one thing if it was on my chest but there’s a big open area of nothing with a design only on or under my boobs? I think they’re just not made with women in mind 90% of the time even when it’s sold in women’s sizes
100%. we live in a man’s world.
Counterpoint, wearing a graphic on the back feels shallow and self-aggrandizing. You’re never going to get to see the graphic you like in a mirror; friends and acquaintances you interface with all day won’t see it. It’s only for the benefit of anonymous observers behind you that you’ll never meet and won’t think about you twice.
It also is more antisocial. It’s natural to comment on a graphic when you’re face to face (pointing to chest, “oh you also like [Band]?”) and hard to broach a conversation from behind when they’re probably engaged with something else ("[Band]? Oh right, the shirt, yeah…").
It’s possible to pull it off, but in general I’d rather see someone confidently rocking a 3 wolf moon shirt than an incredible print drifting down the street on some anonymous back.

This might be why I feel like front graphics are more trashy. You are picking a thing and putting it in peoples faces, and it feels like a stand in for actually saying something and expressing ones self. Versus on the back, it functions more as an out of the way vibe that supports the way you want others to see you, but still allows you the lions share of expression
Guess I don’t see it like that. To me both are serving the same function of fashion, but on the back is cheekily pretending it’s not and is therefore more disingenuous.
I also have a strong bias toward aesthetic over statement. There’s no reason my T needs to “say” anything any more than a striped or patterned shirt needs to “say” anything. I can just like how it looks or compliments my outfit.
I’m never going to wear some generic Coca-Cola or beer brand or “I speak sarcasm” shirt. If it’s an obvious legible statement (like a local band or charity) then that means it’s really important to me and I don’t mind looking like a trashy geek.
Yeah if you’ve got shirt with a wolf but no dragon on it that is a weak design, everyone knows this.
Yep, I’m right there with you on this one
Exactly, graphic on the back for the same reason you don’t look at explosions.
Makes me feel like a fucking billboard when on the front for some reason
I feel the opposite. I feel like a billboard when it’s on the back.
If I had to guess, this avoids the classic case of staring at someone a little too long to read their shirt. The shirt design isn’t so much for the wearer, it’s a billboard to others. Also, printing on the front has much more noticeable texture than printing on the back which would make the surface a bit uncomfortable across the entire front as opposed to the back where you’ll hardly notice the feel.
Even the best screen printing techniques have at least a bit of feel to them.
graphic t-shirts are clotheslop
Like all other clothing, they have their place.
But I too agree that graphic tees shouldn’t be someone’s main clothing the way that too often it is.
Local band shirts are the only clothing I want to spend my money on. Nothing beats repping for homies you share stages with. Everything else is purely weather-necessary, usually thrifted or made myself.
For the past 4 months I’ve been exclusively wearing cat shirts.
Any other things I’m doing that harm absolutely no one that I shouldn’t be doing?

Probably.
I like a good band tshirt or local art graphic tshirt under a nice flannel short aleeve.
||that might be my whole wardrobe||
Pacific northwest 'eh?
Not American thankfully. Ontario, Canada

Me too!

We’ll disagree here
I might be exaggerating a bit but I do hate how limited men’s fashion is, especially when you exclude second layers. You can’t wear a nice cardigan when it’s 30+ degrees out so you’re stuck with just a basic t-shirt or collared shirt!
Be the change you want to see
i primarily use them for a hair wrap
I hate it when its the other way around. I feel like a fancy design on the back and minimalist one on the front has more flair. But this is clearly subjective
Omg same. And I often wear a button down over a t-shirt, which is mildly annoying with that configuration
