All of your T-shirt designs and artwork are amazing! You all put a lot of hard work and dedication into them. I’m interested in buying one soon, but I haven’t found any designs that really resonate... See more

Excellent quality t-shirts with awesome designs. Don't be put off by the price, because they last so much longer than other cheap brands. Especially love the discord community aspect!

Gorgeous art, print didn't hold up

Received a Hard Times shirt as a gift a while back. Gorgeous thing, got the Hawks and Tokoyami print from My Hero Academia.

We followed the washing instructions as labelled, however the print started to bobble and flake off after a couple of months. It's now, unfortunately, relegated to a drawer to stop the print flaking all over my other shirts.

I tip my hat to the artists that make the designs as they really are stunning, and the shirts are well sized and super comfy. I can't recommend based on my experience though, as I've got a shirt with the print scuffed and falling off.

Reply from Hard Times Clothing

Hey Adam, that t-shirt hasn't been on sale for years unless you got it as a Mystery T-Shirt. It was only printed once regardless which means it was printed in around 2019.

The only way normally the print would bubble or flake so quickly would be because it's generally been exposed to some form of heat.

We have a more in detail way to wash our product to protect the print for longer on our website here:
https://hardtimesclothing.co.uk/pages/sizeandwash

Screen printing in general though it's by far the best form of printing you can get for garments has its downsides. That being its weakness to higher temperatures. The real pro strategy in that is not only to keep it cool but to turn it inside out when washing.

As what you have is such an old garment of ours it was also printed on our old garments (gildan premium) which we no longer use. We've upgraded the garment quality astronomically since then which does help the print adhere better to the garment.

I really appreciate your review, apologies for taking a bit longer to reply. We hope to one day be able to prove our product is worthy of 5 stars :)

Pre ordered a hoodie so I'm a little nervous that I might not get it. But the website menu was easy to navigate, and the items are appealing to a certain nerdy demographic. Will order more.. if I receive my first.

Superior quality, and customer service!

Frankly, the art work caught my eye first. It is still a driving force for my purchases. Our interactions have made me think about them in a new way. All the dealings I have had have been great. From questions answered to my own mess ups, they have spotted and asked for verification or confirmation. I will tell you, the very coolest of fans run this site. The products are priced to pay a far wage to the artist and production crew. Top quality fabrics are used, nothing thin, these items last when taken care of properly. I have multiple products, tees and stickers, they are a great company, excellent customer service, and products with superior quality and style. Give them a try, and you will keep coming back.

Great Designs, High Quality

The quality of the shirt is far better than your standard shirts and the designs stand out. I receive compliments whenever I wear this shirt and any I've purchased from here. Plus, it arrived in good time despite being international shipping. Definitely worth the extra price if you're considering purchasing a shirt or other product from here.
