I noticed the oven mitt too, that's a real nice touch. I really respect your approach to stores, it takes a pretty strong will not to sell out!

I just stumbled upon this dope hideyourarms site. To clear up a few things... It IS gold foil! I even have oven mitt shapped neck tags built into some of my newer shirts. I only sell my shirts through my store and website (with the exceptions of a few quality boutiques). One bigger store picked up my shirts for a month(Metro Park)... until I found out how big they were and their expansion plans - I then immediately removed my shirts & canceled my account with them. Everyone likes what nobody else has. I could make a quick buck going in all these stores, expanding, etc etc.. But it is more important to me to have a strong brand with longevity, backed up by a cult following. Thanks again for the feedback & don't hesitate to contact me if anyone has any questions etc..

Having the name or logo of the company in the design doesn't bother me much. I just wish they weren't so expensive. Johnny Cupcakes always have good designs.

I'd buy this, if it weren't for sale at almost every popular store around me. I see people who get Johnny Cupcakes shirts from Nordstrom's! I think the label is okay here.
