am i the only one sick of black band shirts? i KNOW people wear them and i KNOW they sell better, but come on...

some of my favorite band shirts at the moment include the red Kings of Nuthin' suicide king shirt we did, the new maroon Tirade shirts, royal Injury Time, kelly green Dead Friends

I have this weird thing where I like nice thick/tight collars...normally color shirts are the least conforming to this requirement. I hate getting a band shirt where the collar is like this 1/2" wide stretched out band of elastic that looks like you could fit 2 of your necks in it.

Draw is full of black shirts, love the color. I like red, and maroon, not a big fan of white shirts but I do have a few. My wife and Mom use to give me crap about always wearing black t shirts.

White shirts suck. I got a Murphy's Law shirt from the late 90's that I will not wear. I want to but I just can't. Same with a couple other shirts. Colored shirts I prefer in darker shades. Reds, Blues, Greens, greys. Its when you get bright ass colors I lose interest. I have a Dead Milkmen big lizard shirt I can't find, but its bright yellow. Never wore it.

I have very few white shirts. Black is the most common, but I've seen plenty of other colors that I liked. Maroon, dark green, etc. I also like slate grey.

I hate white and athletic grey shirts. One of my favorites is my grey Thorp anchor shirt. Fits great and love the shade of grey. Others I like are red, brown, green, blue, yellow. I have a ton of black shirts but love a good variety, and it is hard to come by.

I prefer black, but I've got other colors too. I'm a big fan of green.

I wear black and charcoal grey
I prefer to print on any color where I can just use black ink as long as it's not white...

i am a slob.
i eat like an ape.
i stain most everything so light colors and white shirts are a fail for me.
having nice stuff never works out for me.
i prefer dark colors, but have also grown tired of the same old black shirt.
as long as the stuff is not pastel per say then i will buy it.

Bright is the problem. No white, red, light or normal blue, no light or normal green. Darker greys, black, dark blue and green, maroon... those are fine.

Us fat guys need to camouflage the fatness with darker colors.

And since we're on the topic of merch, let's see some expansion. More polos, for starters (screen printed or embroidered). Maybe some soccer jerseys (lost a DKM one years ago and still remember the old Hooligan Empire ones). Hoodies in dark colors other than black.

Me wearing a white hoodie these days is likely to result in people saying, "Gee, I understand Europe is waving a white flag, but what the fuck are they surrendering?"
