Instantly became my favorite shirt

Print quality is insane sharp edges, colors stayed vivid after multiple washes. Fit is true to size and the cotton is soft. Got three compliments the first day I wore it.

★★★★★

Perfect gift for my partner

Arrived in two days, packaged nicely. My partner is obsessed with the art style that retro-apocalyptic look is so unique. RIPT always delivers on quality.

★★★★★

Great quality, washed really well

Washed inside-out on cold like recommended and the graphic is still crisp after six washes. The design is dark and funny exactly what I look for.

★★★★

Love it but size runs a little big

Hoodie feels premium and the artwork looks amazing in person. Runs slightly large I'd suggest sizing down. Still wearing it constantly though.

★★★★★

Supporting indie artists never looked this cool

Top-tier shirt heavyweight feel, print hasn't cracked, and the design sparks a conversation every time I wear it. Now I check the daily drop every morning.

I was very excited to purchase the shirt as a gift.

Unfortunately on Christmas I found out the shirt was not in the best condition very wrinkled and loose threads were found.

My last 5 or 6 Ript Apparel t-shirts have been low quality. I was a fan for a long time. I purchased many t-shirts and recommend Ript to many friends, family and coworkers. Recently, I’ve noticed lower quality material (thinner and more shrink), and the cuts left the shirts shorter on the bottom and sleeves. I’ve worn 2XL for several years and I always order 2XL from Ript Apparel. They no longer fit me. It’s not my body shape because older shirts purchased from Ript still fit just fine. Although I love the designs and want to support the designers, I can no longer order from Ript Apparel as their quality and fit has diminished.

Super clever shirt. Not everyone will get it. But it therefore becomes a great conversation starter! Great quality as usual.
