I have found some alternative apparel tees in a few 99 stores here in California.
I have seen almost every color in every size except XS and black. All of them are crew neck. About half of them have pre-distressing. All of them were 90%Cotton 10%Poly. Also some of them have tags, some of them have no tags. and some of them have half a tag.

as far as i know, alternative only makes 1 t-shirt in the 90-10 blend
and that's the aa1075h Heather Destroyed Tee which is now overstock, meaning it'll be discontinued once stock runs out

there's no black because they don't make a black
and no xs because they didn't make that size in those shirts

Those are the shirts they have. Except some of them (About 1/2) don't have any distressing.

I'd pay for a proxy too if someone in the area is willing - I live in the west if that means anything in terms of shipping. shoot me a PM!

Since we're on the topic of Alternative apparel I was wondering if anyone had a similar fit experience... I tried on a size small blank t, and the neck hole dipped low in the front and was loose and not flattering, the fit was boxy, shoulders fit too small and it tented horribly in the back. (fit me like uniqlo t's basically) Dont get me wrong, American apparel t's can suck it too but my experience with alt. was god-awful the first time around... thoughts?
