Must've changed since the early days when I bought 20+ of their shirts. Ended up wearing most gardening, etc and never had any tear or feel flimsy at all. Been many years since I bought from them though.

They changed from American Apparel to in-house (read: crappy overseas garbage) a few years back. Quality went down the drain, as did the fit.
That is disappointing to hear. I have bought years ago from Threadless and the American Apparel shirts still hold up well.
Yeah, I still have some shirts that I bought from them around 2004. The prints are a bit weathered, but the shirts are still in great shape.
