@@fiction1249 but vintage clothing always uses heavy weight fabric, and has nice boxy oversize cut. Whereas nowdays clothing fabric isn't that sturdy unless you paid more.
@@DylanHutto Thanks man ill try it. I had Fruit of the loom with iron maiden print tshirt before and it was soooo gooood. Rough, stiff, thick and sturdy. And i am on search for such shirt now. I bought Gildan Heavy cotton but it isn't as near as mentioned before so i am having best hopes for S2000
@@forvainee Oh yeah my hopes were pretty low since I have a "Heavy Cotton" Gildan shirt and it's thin as hell, but the S200's are awesome, they're what I want to print my band shirts on
Try mixing in baking soda to the salt. The baking soda with give it that alkaline wash that will help break down the coating in the fiber. Those coatings are what the manufactures add to help preserve that stiff crisp feeling. But we dont like stiff and crip. Then depending if you can afford to have the shirt shrink a bit, set the dryer to hot.
if you are here looking to fade black shirts: Go over your black shirt with low grit sandpaper like 200 grit, everywhere. then put your shirt in a pot or container and add 6 cups of boiling or very hot water then add 3/4 cup of bleach and 1/4 cup of salt. watch your shirt. pull it at desired look. 7 minutes is usually right for me. wash regularly on hot, it will come out looking faded but it will feel stiff. if you want it to be soft throw it back in your container with hot water and epsom salt for about a half hour and let it hang dry. ba bang your welcome
these ratios dont work fyi people reading this. no idea why i thought the t would do anything except turn orange. now am redying a bleached black t shirt with black dye
Now after you do that to your heavy cottoned shirt which now is soft, is it now and still safe to stretch to make it more looser to give that more baggy look?
I read that there’s no need to wait so long, after 7 minutes it’s absorbed all it’s going to. Then when you fry it, you take it out of the dryer before it’s fully dry and let it air dry
I am learning so much from you Diane it will be especially useful on my little grandchild's tops.She hates to be irritated around her neck from stiff clothes and gives us a time !Mahalo,dear friend.
I love the feel of vintage shirts. Thick, heavy. I hate modern regular cotton t-shirts. Too soft. I like the stiff, rough feel.
Vintage feels soft and light not heavy 🤦♂️

SoggyFries how much baking soda?
Ibrahim ramirez like 100£ per 1g
Anyone think using Epson salt would help better than regular salt ?
@@gotti4217 not how much does it cost, they’re asking how much baking soda to add

hey there, i know this is old but every time I have tried bleach with a black shirt it has turned it red, Is this normal for your method?
U should do a tutorial
@RICH KID Ah yes, the Hunter Biden method

What brand is your husbands shirt? It looked really nice
hello does it fade a black tshirt?
Does this make the shirt look faded. Cause i would like to know how to make my black shirts look faded
yes the design will have rips and cracks in it do it with a cheap one
FullMetalSole leave it in the sun for a couple hours it works!!
I went swimming in a salt pool with a black shirt on and it dried in the sun for like 2 days. Yeah it faded a ton.
I think you're supposed to use sea salt not regular salt
did you actually replied to yourself? or what?! haha
sarai637 does it work??
Rydell Garcia hahahhahahahahahhahahahahah
It only has iodine if it says iodized
Rydell Garcia nope, the original person that I was replying deleted their comment so I deleted mine too
(And yes I know I’m late to the party)
what if you just pickled your shirt?
yes
Wash in hot water only, then dry on high heat. Do it a couple times until satisfied
if I do this does it shrink the t-shirt at all or does it maintain the same size?
What a neat idea! Thanks for sharing. I have some "boys" who would love this.
does it make cause the shirt to feel vintage permenantly? or just for that wash cycle?
What brand is the Hawaiian shirt?
DID YOU AIR DRY OR AIR DRY???
I soaked 4 days....was only soft for 2 washes
wait no i thought this was the other way around i love it hard
That’s what she said

This would take for ever if you did ever shit you have it's in the cotton just don't get heavy cotton
Yea, this does NOT work
That’s an actual vintage tee. So your video is turning a vintage shirt into a vintage feel shirt
She did say it was hard bro
Nate Burt you’re right. That’s what she said...Hey!
Maybes she's capping??
Such a neat little trick . Who doesn't like soft ?? Lol. As always thank you 💕
That’s a beautiful t shirt the Hawaiian one
Awesome mom 😎

Fyodor nice

ur not supposed to use sea salt or bath salts not regular salt or even iodized salt it’ll work if you dont use regular salt
Chloe Kingsley what?
That made absolutely no sense
So what salt do you want us to use.... 😭
This comment thread is killing me

How to waste a new shirt, your time, water and power bill.
Batman is not from Marvel its from DC comics
Stiff shirts are the best they seem more vintage
