Fight Club Tyler Durden T-shirts?

I used to love this movie a bunch,that black sugar shirt is a production shirt from a boutique out of NYC called Sears Robot, I think the store shut down by now Years ago I was looking for that one, I got the production Hustler jersey from the Hustler Hollywood store years ago, the main change would be getting the sleeves turned into long sleeves. The dirtbike shirt is also a vintage shirt.
 
Nope there was a boutique in NYC that had unique items in small runs, NOT the dept store Sears, so "Sears Robot" was a pun on the Robuck. I think Sears actually sued them over the name.
I actually have the rolling stone issue that came about with Pitt on the cover, PM if someone wants it, there are photos and info in it that might help.
 
HI Coolsnell,
We'll I took a look for it, to see if that was where I saw that info, turns out I might have tossed the mag earlier this year during some cleaning.


Anyhow, I way into this movie when it first came out, I went to the theater to watch it about 5 times.

that Black sugar shirt is a custom printed Asian adult film fabric. I tried to sneak in a visit to that shop in NYC about 2004 and couldn't find it, because the shop had shut down.

I actually found the designers name and this print might have been part of their porno collection in 94-97'. If I find more info or contact the desinger I'll let you guys know.

This would be awesome! I'm planning on doing this for halloween this year and have already found the red jacket and blue pants. I get lots of people telling me I look like him or close to the guy who plays Biff in back to the future so it would be more like cosplay than a costume for me haha... I would probably order 2 so incase I ruined one I would have a back up. It would be my new favorite shirt! Email me @ musicofthenight06@gmail.com if you start production, I would LOVE to see a photo.
 
First time poster, I've actually replicated the Motocross shirt. I am going to have production come by next week.

If you know anything about t-shirts, in order to make the printing look good you need to either do a 4 color process (CMYK) (Cotton) or dye sublimation (Which can only be done on a polyester type shirt).

Furthermore, this type of shirt requires a cut and sew process. If you notice Tyler's shirt has no gaps in printing. If you were to do a regular print without cut and sew there would be approximately a half an inch to an inch of no print going down the sleeves and side of the body.

Finally, you need stock photos (Approximately 300 DPI+) in order to make them not look crappy on the shirt. (They will not print clear otherwise)

Sadly, all of these processes are VERY expensive. Most companies will not do the above processes and if they do they want 4000 orders.

I am going to do a limited run of these shirts (Like maybe 10 or so since each shirt is pretty costly) and will most likely have them on EBAY. I intend to keep approximately 2-3 for myself and I should have the first shirt completed by Monday.

Here is a desktop screenshot of the art I currently have:
 
And one more picture, this is before I colored the art blue -- I am going to try two processes, the first is just using the art above that I colored blue and printing onto white fabric. The other process I want to try is printing onto a blue fabric.
 
Would love one of them shirts been lookin around the internet for one for ages, definitely buy one off you man, pretty cool your puttin it together. Im suprised these shirts are so hard to find, since so many people are lookin.
 
I'm new here, but i just wanted to post in regards to the Black Sugar shirt. If it hasn't occured to anybody that shirt is a two side dupe. one side has the asian women on the left posing topless on the front and on the back is a picture of her posing topless with her back facing. Which would mean that brad pitt must have worn the back and front of the shirt in the film not knowing what side was what. so that means that the back and the front of the shirt print must be the same when you reverse it the exception being the asian women on the front and back. Ive started to make a mock up of the shirt logo designs since i've noticed this.
 
apparently these the hustler shirt is being replicated and the "sock it tome shirt" but note the sock it shirt should actually be a short sleeve sweater
