cloak t-shirts

[dilemma]

Anyone know where I can purchase cloak t-shirts online?

Also- does anyone know which brand of tshirts they use? I tried emailing them but didn't get a response.

Thanks.

Rogues gallery does the screenprinting for their t-shirts.

they're printed on American Apparel shirts.

Does Cloak use the regular pre-made American Apparel shirts that regular consumers can buy off American Apparel's website or do they order American Apparel to cut and sew special designs just for them?

Unknown.

Either way, there's something wrong with $125 American Apparel t-shirts.

Libertine silkscreens their shit on AA and sells it a thousand fold. Info from someone who interned there.

thats not true. just because its the same company doesnt mean theyre using the same means of construction and material.

I have a cloak t-shirt from the F/W 2005 collection. It's definitely NOT a regular AA t-shirt as the fit and cotton is quite different. My t-shirt is printed by Rogues Gallery. It is possible they have changed since then, however.

haha thats great.

companies will keep charging insane prices as long as someone will pay them.

Libertine also, at least early on, regularly used really shitty vintage finds for their silkscreen designs. They were flipping a neat 500 dollar profit on most pieces.

nom de guerre uses american apparel shirts too. to think that it's a "special" aa cut for cloak is purely psychological.

people that sell shitty quality items or shitty designed item are awesome. im not being sarcastic at all.

well, NdG's f/w 06 stuff is American Apparel, but it's cut+sew -- they're not using standard issue blanks.

So what you're saying is that I have no idea how to tell apart two t-shirts that I personally own? Maybe they are AA t-shirts, but the Cloak t-shirt I have is much better quality in terms of fit and cotton. Stop and think for a second before commenting on things you don't know the full story to... it's quite misleading.

well, rogues used to screen on aa tees, but recently they've switched and do cut & sew. as rogues does the screenprinting for cloak, i'd assume the same is the case.
