11 Review: 3D People by Paper Root Clothing

Do you ever find it weird that there are no films made in 3D that don’t really exaggerate the whole 3D aspect of the film? I know that’s probably because 3D technology hasn’t become as widespread as the people in the this tee were led to believe so it would be pretty pointless to go to all the trouble of making a 3D film and only using it subtly, but still, I guy can dream…

I dig the image that Paper Root have used, it really sits well with this style, and the heather grey tee really helps to bring out vintage look of the faded image. It is a pretty big print, which might put a few people off, but it feels entirely necessary for it to be this size, so that we can get that sweet perspective effect to work well on the print.

The print is a real beauty, I don’t really know all that much about ink processes (its a ‘to do’ list item), but the print is also visible on the inside of the tee, so does that means that this tee is printed with discharge ink? The tee feels really soft too, I would hazard a guess that it is American Apparel stock considering the tiny remnants of where the tag has been cut out, but I’m not entirely sure. The cut is on the slim-fit side, but quite stretchy too so its pretty forgiving.

    Claude, off my website, now!

    It looks nicer in reality, but it certainly is showing a lot of wear since its well over 10 years old now.

    If you can feel the ink, then it definitely isn’t a discharge print, it’s just that the ink bled through the fabric; if you can feel it at all, it’s probably waterbased ink (since plastisol sits on top of the fabric and doesn’t penetrate).

    Ahh, you can barely feel the ink, but you’re right about it being water-based ink, I read that on T-Shirt Watch, I guess I should’ve just e-mailed them about it.
