Very informative. Never thought there would be so many decisions on a t shirts construction and design. A lot more respect for these designer t's.
Good Designers who know the materials and how to construct garments make a huge difference!
The t-shirt you should do next is…… the one *you* wear! And no, I don't want to see you do a review shirtless.
I needed to see this to remind me that often the price we pay for things isn't just a reflection of the physical stuff itself or how trendy it is but also the product of a keen & savvy architect's mind. And that's worth something.
Given the sticker price and the complimentary review i thought for sure your mfg estimate would be in the $12-14 range. Turns out $8-9 can result in a good shirt from someone who knows what they're doing or crapola in the hands of a philistine.
Oh once you are in fashion long enough. It saps all the joy out of buying clothing haha. But you can definitely appreciate it when someone spends the time to go into the details of creating something!
Fantastic review. Aime Leon Dore or Kith in terms of quality and worth?
I’d love to see some Satisfy. I know it’s pricey their shorts are amazing
I have their tops and jacket it's really high quality. I want buy their merino wool tee which feels amazing AND light but its so damn exp
Great vid as usual. You should get back to trying on the shirt that you're reviewing, it really puts things into perspective for the viewer.
Appreciate it! We will definitely look to integrate the fits back in in the coming months. Currently we are super busy getting our clients summer collections ready & just need to streamline production a bit. 🙏
I'd love to see a Nemen jacket
what is the shirt brand you are wearing here?>
A in house prototype
❤
the new neff or diamond supply lmao corny as hell
this is the kind of content i've wanted to see for some time, this is amazing. We need more
Appreciate it!
Wow you actually got Kith. Amazing video that was very informative. I wonder why so many people have been complaining about poor QC in the KithNYC subreddit? This shirt was constructed so much better than the FOG Essentials. When you can, i'd love to watch your take on luxury sweaters made in italy and a ranking video showing which brands have the best quality to markup ratio (ie, is it possible to find something nice at a 5x markup?).
Could possibly be other items within their store! We'd imagine they have several factories & not all of them may be good! That ratio video is a great idea!
Great video. It's nice to see a company putting thought and effort into their clothes. Doesn't always seem to be the case, regardless of price.
Why would anyone want to wear a t-shirt with a logo plastered across the front? Is KITH paying the wearer to advertise for them?
Awesome channel. I'd love to see you do t-shirts from Loro Piana, Brunello Cucinelli, or Zegna. Basically, the top tier fashion houses.
Great suggestion!
Interesting, but I pass on Kith. I won't spend that much. Thanks.
I would love to see a video where you guys review actual high quality products and see if they’re actually worth their money. Brands like Merz B Schwannen, Samurai jeans, Shockoe, etc. thanks!
Been trying to get a hold of that Bear shirt!
Can you do a scoring out of 40 for this item like you did for Uniqlo & Rhude?
Kith is expensive but ever piece I’ve gotten from them is one of the highest quality pieces in my closet.
Great video ! Could you do aime leon dore next ?
It's on the list!
Our brand dropped a heavyweight pocket tee with flocking text as an ode to this kith tee! I love the look
What’s your brand?
Thanks for covering KITH. I wonder how much would it cost them to ship those shirts to their designated stores around the globe? And how much duties and taxes would they be charged? That would definitely be the true net value of the shirt post production
24% combined duties + Tariffs for USA 22% Canada. If shipped by boat roughly $0.2 per unit if by air around $3-4
I am a big fan of Kith and while it is more expensive, I do feel like I am getting what I pay for from a quality standpoint and from a fit perspective. The Ts also wash and dry well with minimal shrinkage. After watching this video, it does make me feel a little better about how much I spend on these Ts as you are also paying for some of the hype around their products. If you compare these to Supreme t-shirts, it's not even close. Supreme fit is horrible, they shrink a lot, and the material quality is horrible.
Something Joe has said in a few of the videos, a brand can charge whatever they like for their garments and it's up to the consumers to judge whether or not it is worth that price. The discrepancy comes when a brand charges a lot but the quality is not there at all😅
Have you ever done wonder looper
not yet!
The editing angles and sound levels are much better in this video. I'm not a big fan of pocket tees, but they make for a fun deconstruction demo.
Appreciate it! Always trying to improve!
"What do you got for me this week"
"Check this out"
"Okay, I bought this last week"
🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ Trying hard too lil bro. In what world does that interaction NOT look contrived?
As the media team we choose what we film with each week. Items are purchased in advanced sometimes by us and sometimes by Joe.
Dude, this is the best video I've seen all day! I love these in-depth breakdowns.
They're not super popular, but I'd love to see you break down and item from Enfin Leve. Their stuff looks super technical and I'm wondering if it's worth the price point. $1,600 for a poncho seems like a lot but there's a lot to that piece. 🤷
Appreciate it! We definitely will be doing more technical wear in the future! I've seen stuff from that brand before. At that price point unfortunately alot of the time its a case of never meet your heroes haha.
@@Shiftfashiongroup sadly that's what I figured. But they have a lot of waterproof (what seems like) custom fabrics. It would be interesting to see a breakdown just cause it fascinates me. But keep on going. I'm watching these videos at dinner and anywhere I can. Haha y'all are my favorite channel in recent months. 🤌🙏
@3:26 that sounds so much like Ronnie Fieg's (founder of Kith) voice saying $78?
Do a T-shirt from Abercrombie, heavy weight polished tee.
Added to the list!
@@Shiftfashiongroup i 2nd this. Abercrombie seems to have stepped up their game. Would love to see if the quality holds up
Would love to see some of the rope dyed Japanese shirts like SDA or Momotaro
amazing technical depth as always. thank you so much joe! also the production on the videos has gotten really great recently. keep it up please!
Also just wanted to add that if you're ever taking requests, it would be so so so so sick if you could switch up and do some more technical apparel items too! e.g.: Arcteryx jackets, Acronym, other highly technical brands with very niche manufacturing methods etc.
Appreciate it! We always try to improve at least one thing in every video! Arcteryx definitely on the list!
im curious to know the process of peaching/sueding on t shirts because I had come across one made by Acne Studios . Could you do a video on that?
Yes!
John Elliott garments.
its on the list!
I bumped into your Acne Studios shirt video, I immediately wondered if you made a Kith video, behold you made one a week ago lol Curious about ALD and Todd Snyder's premium jerseys
They are both on the list!
I really enjoyed this video and your knowledge and attention to detail is wonderful. However, I'm not sure I understand with the conclusion, where you say that this T-Shirt that costs $8 to make could be "worth it". I'm not sure I get it.
Appreciate it! At the end of the day a brand can charge whatever they want. As long as a customer is willing to pay that price. There are other factors such as branding etc that are intangible. But really matters is the quality of the item that are ultimately selling
@@Shiftfashiongroup I definitely agree with you that anyone can charge whatever they want, that's 100 percent on the customer if they wish to pay it. But for context the reason that somehow I stumbled on this video and UA-cam channel is because became tired of clothes that are just just bad quality and fall apart. I care a lot less about trends and fashion to be honest.
There's a lot of discussion that can be found online about fashion and clothing, but it's almost all about fashion, brands, and aesthetics and design. Personally though, I want some reasonably priced clothes that aren't total garbage, and that's a much tougher question to deal with because it's not really discussed and not a major interest for most people.
So that's one of the reasons I was so impressed with this channel where you take an item, cut it up and really get into the construction and quality like I've never seen before, just fascinating, I hope you continue doing what you do. If you open a pateron or something I'll sign up.
Do DENIM TEARS or RAG AND BONE
Great breakdown! I was wondering which Shirt you are wearing?
One of our samples we made for a client!
Kith also has a pima cotton t shirts at around a 100 bucks can you do a review on that too? Can u explain what pima cotton is and is it worth it with that type of cotton.? Also maybe compare with a cheaper tshirt that is pima cotton as well.
Great idea!
Nike Premium Essential Sustainable T-Shirt next please
Great idea!
Could you add APC, Maison Kitsune, Arcteryx?
These brands don’t even come up on regular Google search results lol. Good to know
Can we expect a review on some Hellstar shirts/sweaters?
It's on the list!
Are you guys hiring for any roles?
our team at hello@shiftfashiongroup.com Would be the best to connect with!
would love to see you dissect Reigning Champ shirts
Hoodie already filmed :) We have some shirts in the lab as well
Can you do a rick owens shirt / pant breakdown please
its on the list!
@@Shiftfashiongroup ❤️
I'm learning so much from these videos. Keep up the great work!
Awesome, thank you!
Always learn so much from these videos! Thanks for the content!
Glad you like them! We're happy everyone seems to be enjoying the longer more informational format!
One note- is that you can stitch the neck tape leaving an unsewn ~1.5” where the label would go, then do the garment dye, then tuck the label under the neck tape and sew down with a thread that was dyed with the tees. The fact the kith nape label is on top of the tape is a labor cutting measure and honestly would feel horrid itchy on the neck unless it is meant to tearaway or cut off. Especially at $120
Great question! We'll ask Joe for next week's Q&A video!
Cool! Although it isn’t really a question. I work in promotional products industry and have done private label custom color garment dyed tees with label under the tape in China. 3 times- With a standard woven label, a linen embroidered label, and a tear-away one. Not trying to ish on anything in the video though, just saying that is a labor/time saving measure or a lack of detail that should never be done on a $120 tee haha. I love and appreciate your content. Keep up the good work
Where is YOUR t shirt from ?? Always looking for good quality blanks/minimalist tees
Joe wears alot of prototype shirts we are sampling for our clients
Why is it so hard to find blank like this and with this type of quality (100% jersey cotton)
Great question! We'll ask joe!
Would love to get your thoughts on the Merz b Schwanen tee. It's loopwheeled and costs around $100 USD retail. Kith has branding and marketing but Merz is a blank so the equity for the tee is going to be fabric quality and craftmanship.
hard to get a hold of that iconic white tee!
Great work man🎉 keep it up
Thanks 🔥
I’m new to the channel so I’m sorry if you’ve already done this, but can you do a review on the Uniqlo Airism oversized tee? I’ve always wondered what they used
not yet! But we have reviewed their pima crew! We'll add it to the list!
Do a stussy hoodie
Any one in particular?
@@Shiftfashiongroupu should do the basic black one
Can you break down the represent owner club tee?
We will add it to the list😊!
do a garment breakdown on a police uniform next
oh that would be cool!
Great video! You should do ARKET at some point. They're considered "elevated basics" by a lot of influencers, and it would be great to know how elevated they actually are
Any item in particular?
@@Shiftfashiongroup their heavyweight tee is pretty popular, also their linen drawstring trousers.
@@Shiftfashiongroup Also, series idea: "Battle of the Brands." For example, comparing linen trousers from ARKET, COS, Uniqlo, Zara, H&M. You could do the same with t-shirts, jeans, jackets, anything really. But, since it's summer, many people are looking for linen. Some channels have already done this, but they rate the clothes subjectively based on look and feel. They also don't cut the clothes apart. You actually break down the quality of materials and construction objectively. I think it would help your channel (tons of views) and it would help a lot of viewers. Shopping for clothes is confusing, and people genuinely want to know what brands are high quality and where to spend their money.
Cool review, I own a few of their shirts and have been satisfied with the quality and design.
@shiftfashiongroup can you guys cover the T-shirts that Target sells (Goodfellow brand). Some of the t-shirt seem like good quality compared to KITH and Supreme. I'm not 100% sure but it would be nice to see their t-shirts covered and compared to other brands.
We'll add it to the list!
