Last week, I received my TL shirt in the mail. It was perfect, except it was HUGE despite the fact that it was a “men’s” small. This shirt must run large, even for the men.
TL, you really should have offered this shirt in lady sizes! I was disappointed, but I completely understand why you probably wouldn’t sell nearly as many.
Since I was feeling rather crafty today (and a bit reminiscent – I used to cut all my super cool emo/hardcore band shirts like this in both middle and high school lol) ...I decided to hunt down the sharpest pair of scissors in the house and get to cuttin’.
I cut the front, back, sleeves, and bottom of the shirt. I think it's more flattering now. I think, I'm still not sure yet. Some chick in bath and body works said she loved my style, and the way my hair was cut. So... I don't know, that was nice, but I'm not sold yet. Here are some (not entirely) candid pictures!

Does it look okay? My t-shirt cutting skills are slightly rusty. I think I like it though! Opinions?

Looks more womanly and stylish.
|
The TL shirt should be the uniform of the human race. Looks nice
|
I dunno, still looks alright I guess.
|
|
Good job. Have fun with your shirt!
|
You did well with your cutting. I can't tell that you cut it, it looks like it wasn't altered at all. GJ!
|
Looks pretty good actually. The title of the song made me think you just shredded it in to pieces for whatever reason though :o

Thank you! That's what I was going for.

Why don't we sell womens shirts anyway?
|
WHY are "men's" in quotation marks?? We computer nerds don't qualify as men???

TL sells them in other styles except this one.

We might not have enough quantity demanded for the producer to give us a competitive cost, and since we probably don't want to price female shirts from male shirts differently, we might actually be losing money on each female shirt bought.
I don't actually know.

|
Nice but it just reminds me of my failure to order one in time T_T
|
It looks awesome.
|
Nice! Awesome cutting! I thought some dude was sadistic and cut the TL shirt to pieces...
|
gogogo, I'd love to run into someone on the street with a TL shirt; man I gotta get me one.

We had women tank tops years ago. Helps when your girlfriends love horses and ponies as well. Mine wore the shit out of those! <3

I cut a lot off, you'd be surprised. Maybe I should take the ":O" out of the title lol.
I was pretty nervous cutting it!
|
Yeah the :O is what initially caught my attention.
|
Yeah the title had me... somewhat concerned that someone actually cut up their shirt o.o... I wish I had a TL shirt :O
|
You did a great job with the alteration, thumbs up from me.
+ Show Spoiler +I was expecting a rage blog where someone cut up their TL shirt ahah

Maybe I'll change the title so I don't disappoint people haha. I'm really considering taking out ":O" and the word "up."

Perhaps you shouldn't. It's getting more views.
View it as a relief.

Thats what you look like ? I cannot believe someone would rather play LoL all day than spend that time around that beautiful smile.

Goddamn, I clicked this fully expecting to hate on some sorry soul who ripped their TL shirt to shreds.
This was a decidedly better outcome.

Taller = better. I like it messy, fluffy, with lots of hair spray.
Plus, I'm rather short.

Title scared the heck out of me. Those TL shirts are pure 100% e-sports. Glad you were just making an alteration and not turning it into scrap.

5/5 Would look at more pics of you.

You're right, I'm going to get started on my make-up tutorial blog.

Cool! when people normally like chop their clothes up the shirts look really tacky but there it looks like the shirt was made like that in the first place. Proper job

Your roommate clearly is an idiot.
oh yeah, shirt is nice also.

Cutting was well done. Looks neat and professional.
|
Looks great. A lot more like a ladies shirt. Also you have great eyes.

Yes it looks much better on you. Edgy liquid'stylez

haha you beat me to it! I ordered a TL shirt some time ago, a different design though and a women's size S. But it still very unflattering for me to wear, and I was still plotting how I could make it look better, since I'm a bit nervous about just pulling the entire thing apart. Cutting it like this is also a really good idea though...:p thank you for the inspirations, it looks awesome on you ^^
|
When I saw you posted pictures of yourself, I was afraid to read the replies... Glad to see there haven't been any rude responses yet
Nice work! In a perfect world, more girls would be sporting TL gear. Who knows, maybe you can be a trendsetter?

If your first picture is taken at your work, then respect. Nice work on the alterations.

This sounds probable. If you try to order in small numbers they really gouge the prices.

You guys make me sick. Blatant sexism every time females happen to make blogs. Same shit every time. Always the appeal to sex being abused.

I'm wearing that shirt right now. I got a large, usually get large and it fits well since i'm broad shouldered (?). I got the standard TL horse shirt as well as the ESPORTS one and they both fit well. This one is huge.
Nice job making it not look like a dress though :D

Well, then you should have known this would happen when you made it. I've only made one post showing a photo of myself (and it only shows my hair since it was about a haircut.) I was put off of posting photos of myself on TL when one was included of me (along with Jaedong ages ago before I got into doing eSports journalism) and the first comment was 'God she's so ugly.' You'll get more respect round here if you don't post these types of blogs (or post them in conjunction with other types of blogs.) I have over 100 blogs, but a lot of them are related to my work in eSports.
Oh and before someone leaps on me for being a bitch towards you or something. I love altering/sewing clothing like you've done. I miss my sewing machine ;_;

Considering I've been around this community from the very beginning. Not much has changed in terms of people commenting just on a girl's looks when they post such frivolous things. Nature of the beast and there really is nothing to gain from it. I can fully understand her stance.

your name seems to be pretty accurate, you are made of porcelain!
p.s. cant tell the difference in the shirt
|
IMO you cut up that shirt too wide, now it looks like it will fall off your shoulders any second now.
|
I thought this was actually a pretty cool blog. The shirt came out nice, and its always good to see cute girls interested in starcraft.

you look good., I mean it looks good.
