Slightly off-topic, but does anyone know what the quality on the Bleep Aphex logo t-shirt is like?

Nice shirts my friend. Soft cotton and simple print, what you see is what you get. The size runs true, if your xl then order xl (nothing more annoying than poncey sized shirts that say their xl when their fucking medium!, anyway I digress) I like them because they look cool but not got Aphex Twin stamped all over them. They are very hardwearing, my white one lasted for years with plenty of savage abuse and hundreds of washes.

Yeah, quality of those are great. A lot than the other official Aphex shirts ( http://aphextwin.sandbag.uk.com/Store/DisplayFeatured.html) imo.

Yeah, I've had the same Bleep AFX shirt for years and I wear it a lot and it's still in a pretty good shape.

These 'pixellated logo' and 'tits' shirts here (considered official?) are pretty terrible:

Those are official, yes. Even Warp linked to that website a couple of times. They were sold at (almost?) every gig around 2011/2012 (for some very stupid reason I had to talk to the guy in control of it and iirc it was Richards tour manager who was behind the whole merch thing). But I agree, the quality of the shirts isn't that great...

The site also had Aphex logo pendants on there for a while btw, but they are already gone now!

I can't get over the fact that that immensly immature tits shirt is official afx merchandise :(

Didn't rich encourage his fans to make their own DIY shirts btw?

Yeah, that was before he did these. I think I made my shirt back in 2002 or so after reading that - with this logo lol: http://music.hyperreal.org/artists/afx/

The Bleep ones were the official shirts before these shit ones. Printed on good American Apparel shirts, least I hope they still are. When "Warpmart" first put them out, they had the classic white on black, silver reflective on dark grey, and silver reflective on light grey. The circle logos were a bit smaller and there was the SAW II style full Aphex Twin font name across the back.

The silver reflective sadly washed out after a year or so.

They weren't American Apparel then tho, and they had circle logo tags inside the back of the neck.

Heh, one of my first posts after rejoining WATMM was about the original shirts that had the "A" logo on the tag and stylized "Aphex" word on the back.
