Edited... Don't get me banned.

lol I was just messing around. Had a minute to knock off here at the sample sale and of course my natural instinct is to shitpost on styleforum.

Speaking of shitposting, we had a customer here that was proxying for a friend and he was told to ask me if we "had any of the deli meat tees"

I'm still laughing here thinking about it but I've gotta know which one of you was responsible

Yeah, they managed to mess that one up again. Sent us a run of type 1s and then took them back when I told them what happened. No chance of type 3 this season, sadly.

is this sort of problems common? nick mentioned in another thread that italian factories tend to do this.

Tough question to answer, especially since I don't want to throw anyone under the bus on a public forum, but I'm comfortable saying that this is the second time they messed up our Type 3 / 5 year fade order. We ordered a big restock for this past fall as well, and they sent mistagged Type 1s then, as well. Some of you guys even got those as I didn't catch the issue before shipping them out, and promptly returned them of course.

So yeah, I realize there is a big unmet demand for the Type 3 in 5 year fade, but it's not like we haven't been trying!

Highly disappointing. That wash is so great. I wish they could clear that issue up. Could I make a request (at this point with the Type 3 issues, I suspect this can't happen, but...) that you guys stock a 5 year fade in Type 2? Type 1 is too skinny for my and most of your customers tastes, but personally I think the Type 2 is the sweet spot. Type 3 is too roomy for me.
