Design By Humans: the t-shirt networking site
Filed under: Fashion, News, Best of the Season
Some people think a t-shirt is the simplest unit of a wardrobe -- to others, t-shirts are a way of life. Design By Humans is for the dead serious t-shirt connoisseur -- you know, the kind of person who has a one-of-a-kind graphic tee for each day of the year. Not only is the site packed to the brim with unique t-shirt designs, but DBH asks its users to vote on their favorites -- that's how the company determines which shirts to print.
The way that DBH transcends the average t-shirt site like Busted Tees is that it doubles as a social networking hub for t-shirt designers and printers. Aspiring screen-printers can submit their own designs and vie for the $750 "Shirt of the Day" prize and then get in the running for the "$1750 Shirt of the Month." Whether you're a designer or an t-shirt addict, this is a pretty incredible tool for finding the perfect shirt.

I agree some of their designs are stunning, but I was really disappointed on receiving my first purchase (Sir Leopold III the Orinithologist) for the following reasons:
1. The quality of the material used for the tshirt is REALLY substandard- I expected better for the amount I paid.
2. The sizing is really odd, the shirt measures smaller (width) than advertised.
3. The neckline is really wierd-wider on the sides and doesn't fit the shoulders quite well-I've heard a few people complain about the same thing.
4. They had some kind of delivery problem and took 4 days to respond to my query as to whether my shirt had shipped. Overall I wouldn't buy from them again unless they underwent some kind of massive quality/service overhaul. I agree their designs are awesome and really unique but since that's about the only thing that the company doesn't do itself guess that's self explanatory.
