Can't reply to the previous topic so i made a second one as i'm looking for new T-Shirts.
Any recommendations again?
Not necessarily (web)stores...
Could help any others who they're looking for shirts like me

actually, the first pe t-shirt i made by myself, just placed it in virtual t-shirt, wrote the size and they made it for me. But i'm looking for the original ones but in bigger sizes

Go to shows... buy shirts.

sadly there are not many (or even none) pe shows in my country (at least i haven't heard about them) but yes, that's an option too and i would buy some for sure

First, not too many Noise/PE/Industrial events are happening in Greece
Secondly, too many hipsters ruining the mood and/or organizing "events"

This kind of merchandise can be thin on the ground sometimes I suppose?

Lots of stuff will have come out in very limited and most probably tour only runs and that's that.  Obviously you have certain operations doing things a bit more consistently but they should be easy to find.

If your ethics and aesthetic line up with it, it can be incredibly easy to make DIY, scrappy stuff in your own home with very little more than a photocopied image, a plain shirt and a tin of some gnarly solvent.

Do some searching for solvent transfer techniques if you're interested in this.

Make your own shirts, it's easy, and cheap.

i bought an alfarmania shirt a couple of months ago straight from Kristian Olsson. Maybe he still has some left..?

I would be in favor of DIY shirts by fans.
I think in genre such small as noise, it is kind of useless to behave like in "big music business" and be too protective about merch. I don't like so much about idea that someone makes easy money on doing bootleg shirts for ebay (like is common in metal scene for example). Simply does it in form of rip off business.
But fans doing shirts for themselves and maybe couple friends, I'm all for it. Nowadays most of major cities would have some store doing one-off shirts. This would be certainly valid for older bands that no longer exists.

I still think it would be nice if there were more shirts put out by actual bands and labels. Good looking ones. After all, it is a way of supporting the band/label. In metal, there have been some "shirt labels" that have printed small runs of well made shirts with various bands, with their permission, and that could actually be a "business idea" for a small side activity.

Then again, I'm not too sure about the economics. It is perfectly possible to print very cheap shirts for 5-6 Euros, but selling those could probably qualify as a rip-off. FreakAnimalFinland may perhaps know a bit more about the profit margins if you use a decent quality shirt? Even for someone who doesn't need to make money, it's not great to lose money.

i'm glad you think that, because i thought if i will get into any trouble by making t-shirts by myself haha
