2K by gingham

[cersepn]

anyone with comments on this brand? They have one or two pieces that i really like, but i'm not sure if it's worth 35 a piece.

[sXXXe]

i like the idea.

they have some really nice designs there.

but one shirt here in berlin costs 50 euros.....

they are printing on AA (for me a minus cause i'm not soooooo into the aa quality).

666.

[maxmax]

the shirts are NOT printed on AA. the fit is better, imo -- because they are a tad shorter. they're good quality. i only have one that is slightly fading (not too noticible) but i got it in may and it's been through the dryer.

i think it's worth the $35 and sometimes they have coupon codes.

[isdenn]

they are fine quality - and they don't print on AA, their shirts are shorter as mentioned, as well as more 'substantial' feeling. the shirts i have from them have broken in quite nicely actually - they stay fitted and get soft. $30 or whatever their shirts cost is quite a lot, but sometimes their designs are worth it.

[antoine]

shirt quality and print quality are excellent. tees are substantially heavier than aa and cut different than any tee ive owned. i have several and the only complaint i have is of the fit around the armpits; see i have this thing called an upper body and opening where the sleeve meets the body is far too small. usually a bit of stretching will do the trick

[louie]

yeah i'll have to agree with what has been said about the fit. the tees are short and tight around the arm pit area. i had a shirt in medium that i sold because it was too small (especially length wise). i bought a large and it was much better though slightly wide.

also, i'll cosign that the shirt is heavier than aa.

[jooky]

i dont have any of their shirts myself, but i find a lot of their designs to be extremely hit or miss. there are some that i find myself liking a lot, and others were i dont really know what the designer was thinking. the variety is great, though.

[evisu 2000]

this is my favorite one, from way back. too bad it only comes in white & yellow though!

[prima]

really dont like the cut of their shirts that i own. too short length-wise. and the sleeves are just awkward.

[nappyhead jenkins]

they were making dope tees for a while its unfortunate they got caught in the brand surge and backlash that has taken place but i think they will always release good tshirts

[Guest jmatsu]

i find that the sizing a bodies are inconsistent. for instance some mediums are crazy small, while other mediums are huge.

[homme.homme]

2K is my fav tee brand.

It all started for me with the "enough apes already" image. Brilliant.

Quality is pretty good. Not superb but i think that it's on par with the cost.

[antoine]

this is my favorite one, from way back. too bad it only comes in white & yellow though!

lets not forget about the basquiat tees and the beatles tee that everybody and their cousin has decided to bite

[RAYOK]

I like the concept but lately the designs have not appealed to me at all.

[cersepn]

hehe, can guys who have 2k tees shed some light on whether the sleeves flare out or are slim and fit close to the arm

[Guest jmatsu]

they are neither flared or skin tight. i would think them to be the median of the two.

it's the length that you have to worry about. some of the 2k bodies' sleeves are unaturally long (if you are unlucky that is).

[homme.homme]

hehe, can guys who have 2k tees shed some light on whether the sleeves flare out or are slim and fit close to the arm

The tee's i have purchsed more recently seem to be generally tighter fitting in all aspects. The sleeve width is slim but not skin tight. It does not flare out in anyway.

[camc]

youre balking at 35 skins for a 2k t? they go for close to 100 down here.

[cersepn]

well then too bad for you.

where in my post am i 'balking' about the price?

some of their pieces are definitely not worth 35 bucks.

[flyraid]

if I wear M for supreme/stussy tees, what size should I get for 2K? would XL be too big?

[louie]

i measured the large i have and it's about 20.75 inches from pit to pit.

the medium would probably be like 19 inches or so?

[cersepn]

flyraid, they have a rather detailed sizing info page.

[xviralx]

the difference in width for S and M seem to be too much...im actually in the middle of the 2 sizes for width

[camc]

maybe in the part where you said something along the lines of not being worth 35 bucks. sounds like baulking to me.

[Hypebitch]

this dutch website has some designs left in some sizes for €20, you can also find the measurement for every shirt there.
