New MFA Discount: 25% off new shirts at Miles To Go

Hey, MFA, got something for you.

So after the previous coupon at Miles To Go was a smash hit, Greg has given us a coupon for his new shirts!

The coupon code is "reddit11" and it's good for a week.

Yikes, I dunno why these are being recommended to MFA. Can we get rid of that advertisement at the top of the page? It's annoying as fuck.

im not sure why or how the ad got up there. but, i do think some mfa people would enjoy an offer that involves a tshirt brand that isnt your normal brand logo everywhere, shopping mall, teen company. i try to offer a bit of a more sophisticated tee that goes against those trends. perfectly understandable to not dig it and i appreciate you still checking it out.

we did an offer before and it was well received, so when my new stuff came out, i wanted to offer a pretty fair discount even though all of the items just came out friday.

"Tshirts with trendy things screen printed on them" is a lucrative market for internet nerds, and I appreciate that you want to grow your business, but it really has no place in MFA. It may be clothing, but it's basically on the opposite side of the spectrum from fashionable.

thats perfectly alright with me. i appreciate you taking the time to check them out regardless. fashionable is an objective term of course and whats currently fashionable is a result of trends and wanting to fit into them. be that a brand, cut of a suit, patterns, etc. i thought my mullet/tail was pretty fashionable in 87.

I kind of like these, and they were a hit the last time.

The fact that they were a hit is simply evidence against the efficacy of MFA.

(The boxes being horribly ugly, and effectively broken in Chrome, is another orthogonal issue, and one that needs to be fixed ASAP.)

Your t-shirts are pretty cool looking, but they are not fashionable. They would be great to wear around campus, but they're not the kind of clothing that belongs in MFA.

The header is doing something weird, I can't click on my mailbox..

Yeah, I told Carlin about that. He should work on it when he gets a chance.

Although the mailbox works fine for me...

I'm not sure what is or is not the problem. It's working for most, but not for everyone...

I really like the Howl print, will you offer it on a shirt at all?

hey guys.

the last time we did this went so well, that i wanted to offer a deal again on the new items. if anyone has any questions, please let me know.

two things.

  1. everything is printed onto american apparel which is a really soft, made in the USA shirt blank.

  2. discharge ink is a kind of ink that re-dyes the fabric instead of sitting on top of it. its printed in traditional screenprinting fashion but has an agent in it that removes the dye and replaces it with the new color, turning the fibers the new color forever. it will never crack on you like those old tees you might have. and, after one wash, it will feel like a blank shirt since the color is in the fibers forever. it is not like dtg which is a terrible digital form of printing on shirts. it will hold up and last on you until you wear out the shirt. i wear some tees i printed 4 years ago and its still perfect.

Between you and me, greg, do you cough sell blanks?

I would like to keep this between the two of you, too. Though I am good at keeping secrets.

secrets secrets are no fun, secrets are for everyone

ha. i do not, but to get a wholesale account with american apparel is pretty easy. as long as you select that you dont plan to resell their blanks, they give you an account. might need an ein though

two other options are to go to a local print shop that prints on AA and ask them about ordering some blanks. maybe get some friends together to get a dozen total items or something. if they print on AA a good amount, they most likely have case pricing and getting random stuff isnt more expensive.

another option is to check out tsc. http://www.tscapparel.com/ and maybe try to get an account with them. might be easier. hope that helps a bit.

For whatever it's worth, I picked up a shirt a while back and was really pleased with the quality.

milestogogreg•

thanks. it does help give some confidence for sure. hope you like some of the new stuff too.

No problem. I really like my Master and Margarita shirt

Just out of curiosity, I don't suppose you take requests? There's some stuff you have that's sold out in my size, some books I'd love to see a shirt for, and a cost of ideas henley would be pretty cool too.

if its one of the sale shirts or a limited print tee, they are on their final or only print. i do take requests and am open to ideas for books or products always. feel free to email me [email protected]
