Description:

You know those lovely t-shirts with unknown schools, jobs, tourist destinations, etc listed on the front? Those are the kind of t-shirts we're swapping!

For this swap, go to your local thrift store and pick up a shirt in your partner's size. You're also welcome to send one of your own old school shirts if you wear the same size as your partner. Stay away from shirts with small logos, or boring shirts.

The shirts can include anything from tourist destinations, schools, old bands, cheesy designs with animals, anything vintage. try to stay away from shirts with sponsers all over them, 'cus those aren't as exciting or unique.

SPECIFICATIONS: - 4.5 rating or above. - no recent no-sends. - newbies, PM me first - shirts must be in decent condition. no stains, no rips, etc. send only what you would want to receive! - $1-$5 value.

also, please post the size of shirt you would like to receive in the comments. and 1-2 colors OR designs you do not want. (for ex. i hate sharks, so i don't want anything involving a shark.) Please do not post 2 colors, and 2 designs... let's leave the creativity up to your partners!!

EDIT! i hate to have to even bring this up... but in the case of any flakers, i will personally angel this swap. i hope it doesn't have to come down to that, though. every swapper should know their responsibility when they sign up for swaps!

i usually wear a mens small or medium, little boys xl. i would be fine with shirt sayings that may be slightly suggestive or risque. anything pirate, mermaid, etc. would be amazing as would a band tee. i'm pretty easy to please. ;)

ralesiah 05/ 5/2008 #

Awesome swap! I wear a large in both men and women's sizes. Risque or suggestive doesn't bother me, I'm great with whatever.

greyeyes 05/ 5/2008 #

I'm looking forward to this. I did a similar swap last year, and my partner didn't send.

I'm a medium in women's or a small in men's/adult sizes. I don't really have color or design preferences -- just something quirky and fun. :)

sunrooms 05/ 6/2008 #

i'd prefer a men's shirt, cus women's sizing is SO off. but in men's, i'm typically an xl. sometimes, if the xxl is smaller, i can fit into that too. in women's, i'm usually a xxl. i'm into any and all colors but i'll have to say no to anything with a shark. even if it's a silhouette, characiture, etc. thanks! :] i'm really looking forward to this.

sunrooms 05/ 6/2008 #

also, i'm open to absolutely ANY kind of tshirt! (so long as there is no shark as mentioned above). ;D

405highway 05/ 7/2008 #

please do not send me any women's shirt! for regular t-shirts i do not like the way women's fit.

in men i am a large. :]

HappyCactus 05/ 9/2008 #

i wear a man sm. or womens sm.or med. or kids xl - I'm open to anything!

crayolaskiies 05/10/2008 #

any shirt size is fine for me. i wear womens small or youth large, but if you find a shirt that's perfect but the wrong size, it would give me a chance to practice reconstructing. :] nothing risque please--no beer logos..

Josietai 05/12/2008 #

I'm good with Men's medium or ladies M or L. Any design or colours are fine. Maybe no white or black. I have too many of those colours.

Curbshopper 05/12/2008 #

Any size is fine with me...I use t-shirts for various projects, the grandkids sleepovers (pj's)and even sometimes wear them big too. Any color, any print! Can't wait!

Sage 05/15/2008 #

I only wear mens t-shirts in a size L. I will wear a girl style shirt in a XL but no girl t-shirts, they fit me odd. I have a great sense of humor so I love unique thrift store shirts. I am not fond of white, red, bright colors or pastel colors. I love black, brown, pink, blue, purple and please nothing cutesy like a teddy bear!! :)

Thanks <3 I can't wait.

Harold8Maude 05/16/2008 #

I like over-sized shirts so anything Large or X-Large. I don't like the color brown in t-shirts and please nothing with sports. My favorite thrift store shirts are the really thin and soft ones. Please message me if you want more details or if you are unsure what to send me.

soulie 05/16/2008 #

Hi! I only wear mens t-shirts in a size L and girl style shirt in XL. I dont mind any color and design as long it doesn't have any piggy or beer design <3

memtree 05/17/2008 #

oh yay! my partner in the last one still has not sent theirs yet (so i guess it's highly unlikely to turn up?)

anyways would love a xs/size 8 tshirt. prefer not to be yellow. please no suggestive or risque things on the tshirts.

thanks :D

jacklemmonpie 05/18/2008 #

Hopefully your thrift store will have a plus size section, partner o'mine, because I wear a XXXXL or XXXL in womens and an XXXL in mens. I prefer the XXXXL, but honestly, they're rather hard to find. So are XXXL, but they're a touch easier to find.

No light pink, hot pink/fuchsia is fine, but not that pastel'ness. And no cats.

And I want to volunteer to be an angel on this swap. :)

momilani510 05/19/2008 #

Hello, not trying to be picky, but please look at my profile about colors...I wear a men's size XL or women's XXL. I would LOVE beer logos (the more unique the better...like Pabst, Coors stuff like that...) Or soda logos whatever you can find...please no cats, kittens, puppies or hearts. & please,even though I am one, nothing that says MOM all over the front. MAHALO! (thank you!)

EmperorFool 05/19/2008 #

What a fun swap. I'm a size medium. But if you find a great shirt in large or extra-large, those would be fine too. Maybe even better, since I like to wear baggy t-shirts for workouts and for sleeping in. I suppose the only things I really don't like are spiders. But, hey, maybe there's a really cute spider out there I could learn to like. Surprise me. :-D

badkitty1782 05/19/2008 #

I wear an adult M or L or a youth XL ("youth" sizes are what you find in the Junior's department or the female part of Hot Topic . . . also, most female concert shirts are in youth sizes). If it doesn't fit, there's always t-shirt surgery! :o) By the way, favorite colors are cool colors (blue, purple, green, aqua, teal, etc.etc.etc.) and black (I know it's not really a color). I'll also wear pink, white, or gray. I think the only color I won't wear is orange. The shirt can have orange on it, I just don't want an orange shirt.

julieperaza 05/20/2008 #

I am wear a men's size M or L or women's L or XL depending on how small it looks. I really like vintage school t shirts (my favorite tshirt is from my sisters ex boyfriend's elementary school), anything odd, risque is ok. I really dont like cutesy animal shirts. I LOVE green or brown shirts they make my eyes stand out! Thanks!

leashingfear 05/22/2008 #

Hmmm...I don't want any sports teams/logos, and no beige/khaki. (Beige/khaki is fine on the design of the shirt, but just not the overall color.) I'm also fine with something risque, suggestive, or even vulgar. :) Other than that, I guess you could take a peek at my profile for ideas. Sizes are on my profile too, but for this, if it's a really cool shirt, the size doesn't matter, cuz I'm good with scissors & thread. ;) Oh, and I'll also volunteer to angel this one, if needed! :)

monket 05/29/2008 #

I can fit into an adult S or M, and a kids L or XL.

I'm not too picky, except I don't like yellow, and I'd prefer nothing too cutesy! The wackier the better :). I work in a thrift store, and I love looking at all the insane things that come in! Great idea!

Whiplashes 05/29/2008 #

I wear a medium unless they are tiny fit I have a D size rack :) I love anything out of the oridnary, something fun so any color will do

sauvageblue 05/29/2008 #

This is a great idea I would love old concert t-shirt or old disney t-shirts. I wears a ladies m/large, mens medium or youth xl -I wear a size 10 in clothing.

tehuti 05/30/2008 #

I either wear short, fairly close-fitting T-shirts in women's styling (I'm UK size 10-12) or long loose ones (size medium-large in unisex sizing).

Please don't send me a brown shirt. Brown makes me look even more tired and pale than normal! I especially like purple, lilac, blue, turquoise, sea green, crimson, aubergine, pink, black as well as rainbow/tie-dye/batik colour combinations.

Please also don't send me sports team-related shirts. I like shirts with witty or humorous slogans, am happy with slightly risque but not "in your face" slogans, animals especially if it is a large design over the whole shirt, embellishments such as lace or sequins, I'm OK with cute and in love with vintage.

SherreeG 05/31/2008 #

Oh my, this is going to be so much fun!

I wear a Ladies Medium. If I wear yellow I appear to have the flu so please don't do that to me..Please No alcoholic beverages either.

After that, it's all good. Oh, my favorites are long sleeve tees, but short is fine.

I would especially like to get anything specific to your area, like "Main St Gas Mart" or "Gary's Carpet Cleaning" "Yourtown Fun Run" or concerts or events.

Surprise me, I'm not fussy (really), I love it already!

Alyson 05/31/2008 #

I would appreciate something sassy and quirky. I generally wear a size large and prefer to avoid pastels. I am stoked to sign up, I tried this last year, but my partner was a no send, so I'm looking forward to trying again.

akadyke 06/ 1/2008 #

Marlena 06/ 1/2008 #

Hi, I would love a hippie design. (think tie-dye, peace signs, anything 70's etc. If you are unable to locate something like that. Just use your imagination and surprise me ;) I wear a womens XLarge or men's Large.

NorthernBorder 06/ 1/2008 #

Size large here! Happy swapping.

eamsish 06/ 2/2008 #

I wear a women's L/XL or small men's. Thanks :)

lynnemcf 06/ 2/2008 #

I'd like a XXL T shirt, I like all colours and dont mind the design, but the T shirt needs to be a generous size.

lynnemcf 06/ 2/2008 #

Forgot to say, it would be GREAT if the shirt had LONG sleeves

shinz 06/ 2/2008 #

i wear womens small or youth large, no long sleeves as hot weather in my place, nothing risque please. :)

vpmm2j 06/ 2/2008 #

I wear women's small or medium. I like them a little roomy. Short or long sleeve, is fine. No cuss words, or risque, please.

scowlette 06/ 5/2008 #

morgiewowza 06/11/2008 #
