Title: Wal-Marts disappearing Fish shirt. $9.99
Post by: Dottonedan on December 20, 2011, 05:20:09 PM
Someone mentioned wanting to see the disappearing Fish shirt.  I think that was Fluid or CommandZ . I posted it a while a go, but that might have been on the old forums.  This has to do with inks not being cured, so I thought it might go here under inks.  ::)   That Frog moves my cheese all the time anyways.

This was from last year some time. A few washes showed some decrease in vibrancy but I assumed it was part of the "trend look" but a few more washes and boy did it start to disappear. One day, it just vanished. I mean shirt and all. Gone. I think my wife tossed it.

It's not disappearing. Walmart is just taking it back slowly so they can sell it again.

The shirt pic stays, but get that cheese out of here!

the biggest problem I have with this is why on earth would dan, the best t-shirt artist I have ever worked with be buying a printed shirt?

Ha!   Not the best man, I just care about your business more. :)  Sometimes ya just want a shirt that has something on it that you are particularly interested in. If anyone has any fishing shirts sittin in a box wit nothing to do, drop me a line.  (get it), "drop me a line".  Hahaha. :)

Think I said this before but whenever I buy my kid's a shirt from a store I'll run it down my dryer before it's washed or worn. Just bought a bunch for Christmas super hero's and hello kitty. I have noticed I've been finding less stretch test failures, perhaps someone has been complaining...
