Super thanks Alex.
The measurements for the tee across the line marked on the photo are 6 inches as it is, and about 10.5inches when stretched.Hope this helps

oh my dear lord. 65 dollar white tshirt! you have to be kidding me. thats a ridiculous amount of money to spend on a tshirt. Ill probably have to buy one.
no seriously, I am the proud owner of 2 new pairs of IH jeans and they are by far the nicest jeans I have ever owned. It is quite clear to me now though that IH is overpriced. regardless though, I will come to own several other IH items in the years to come im sure.
but 65 for this tshirt!?? why??
-
quality materials, solid construction, vintage methods, business overhead, t shirt design, wages.
need more?
2 posts = don't come in questioning business practices and prices
also, I have a hard time spending more than $20 on a t-shirt, but I have the 2011 indigo forum tee. Everything changes once you put it on. It's no Hanes t shirt thats for damn sure.

You forgot exchange rates and import duties.
Currently the yen is stronger against the dollar than it has been in years, so even if all other things remain the same, prices on our end keep going up. Buyers in other countries have other problems; Germany taxes cotton goods at some outrageous level. Check the Samurai thread where Beautiful Freak lays out how the government crushes them.
EDIT: as for being overpriced, well, that's a matter of perception. IH gear is comparably priced for its market segment. If you don't want to shop in that particular segment, then don't. None of us like the cost, but we're willing to spend that much because we believe the clothes are worth it at some level. If you don't, that's fine. There are many and more alternatives out there.
Personally, I love the IH tees. The loopwheeled Shitamachi body shirts have a wonderful weight to them without being oppressively hot or heavy. They're super soft and comfortable, and the construction quality is beyond question. If Haraki-san would make more, (additional colors, more prints, etc.) I'd buy even more.

crazy as it may sound. . . i think quinatt was just joshing about :-\
i know i'm one to talk . . . but i really don't think he meant anything by it

i never try to justify the cost of anything, everything is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. i really think he was playing, he also says in the same breath he has two pair of IH jeans, but it is a conversation that seems to be rehashed from time to time.
when is forum tee day?

You think that's expensive? Try USD110 for the standard printed versions. And I wish that anyone was making a decent turn on them. And as someone said above, no one is forcing you to buy them…

true, you only have to do this..

::) Im sure he will buy them t's. He loves IH so much he's questioning himself wether to buy or not to buy…
but given so many justifiable logics by masters here to why it costs that much, he'll be getting a few of them

Yes, it's crap picture time again. Having just missed out on last years tee, I was determined to get one this year. So glad I did, the construction is fantastic and the colour :).
I know people have mentioned the price, but this is certainly worth it. It's true: you get what you pay for.
Oh, and am I right in thinking that this is a darker indigo than last year?
