I received an e-mail from Gustin to try one of their T shirts for free, and a dollar charge for shipping. I was looking to try one for a while, so couldn't pass it up.  |

Received my three pigment dye vneck t-shirts. The one I've been wearing today hits square on the shoulders, chest is a tad tight but it'll stretch, and the length is a tad long, but is perfectly fine. Fits me exactly as I was hoping, which is oddly the same as my heavyweight vneck that's a large. I might back more if the colors are interesting enough.

I've been a bit leery about trying one at full price. With my shoulder width, only the XXL would work for me, according to the fit guide. But, I hear the torso is equivalent to a circus tent. At least, now I will know for sure. |

This is exactly how they got me. I had no intentions of trying a Gustin T shirt but they sent me one for free and dammit I love the darn things. By far my favorite product in the whole Gustin line up. I just backed the two pack of white V necks that's in the store now. I'll seriously have like 15 Gustin T shirts when I get those in. |

Gustin is like a good heroin dealer. First time free then you're hooked. Until you die in a pile of your own vomit...indigo colored vomit.

Good to know I'm not the only one who got that free-ish (I heard that TV ad pitchman voice in my head, "Just pay processing!") t-shirt offer.

How does everyone like their free t-shirt? It's put me in a bit of a quandry as the large fits exactly right, but will be extra skin tight if it shrinks at all, and the XL is a tent. The free one is a dark grey, the first one was a GUSTIN logo tee in light grey. Otherwise I pretty much like everything about them -- if I were more motivated I'd take a look and see which one came in off-spec.

I wish mine would shrink some but i cant make it shrink anything! They are slightly big on me with the large and i suspect the medium would be a condom. Maybe the colored will be a little better...have 9 incoming smileyface!

Its an XXL, but is larger in the chest, and length, than the fit chart, but that's not a problem. I have been wearing the Goodwear heavy Ts, which are much more substantial. A detail I noticed, is the side seam. Not sure if its a negative, as I've only tried it on, and haven't worn it yet, but there is no seam on the Goodwear. Are all the Gustin Ts this way? |

Love the no seam on the goodwears, dont love the thick collar and the flappy arms, would be great with a modernized version.

I haven't gotten any shrinkage out of my Gustin Ts other than the pigment dyed ones which shrank lengthwise after a wash and medium heat dry.

I didn't notice any shrink in mine, but that's probably to be expected in a cotton-poly blend. Still not a fan of the tag, but it hasn't bothered me all day today, so at least it's bearable. |

Mine are a few year old, and I believe they only had the Classic when I bought mine. I'd try a slimmer fit if I were to get more. I have to say, that after a couple years of use, they haven't show any wear at all. |

Wil consider the New style!

davelewis and Griffin, exactly which Goodwear shirts are you guys buying? Some I've really liked and some aren't great at all IMO and I have also noticed that the sizing was wildly inconsistent on some of mine. I've been on their website a few times recently and it seems like they have quite a few different selections.

I got mine at www.aeroleatherclothing.COM the tees and stuff section. They shrink a whole size and then stays there forever. Its a really old cut tho and especially the neckpart is totally 80s so i wouldnt recommend the one on that site but for layering its still my favourite since its also warm. This in a modern cut would be Nice. Gustins organic are Nice, but i dont think i still have them in ten years being so thin. |

I like the Mock Twist better, as it is very substantial, but a softer feeling material. All mine are very consistent with sizing. These things will last a very long time, but if I were to get some more down the road, would try one of their more fitted cuts. |

Finally got my pigment-dyed 3 pack in: moss, faded rose and aquamarine. Damn these are some nice colors. The faded/muted nature of the pigment dye process makes these really beautiful and perfect for wearing with raws. Dig them big time. Wish they were thicker material but otherwise just great. I hope they use that material for the indigo tees and make other colors out of it with this pigment dye. That would be perfection.

They had a nice natural unevenness in color...lighter and fade-like...at the seams from the dye process, especially the rose, that makes them really pop. Dig em. |
