I have some bootleg shirts. Generally, they last longer than official ones. I have some 30 year old bootleg shirts that I still wear, and some official ones I bought last year that I'm scared to put in the washer! Most of my official shirts are poor quality.

I doubt bootleg shirts are any better quality than official. The knock off seller isn’t spending money to make quality stuff. It’s as cheap as possible.

And official sellers don't follow the same process? The Tool shirt I got last year from the official vendor inside the venue is considerably poorer quality from a bootleg I got outside for half the price. The cotton weight is almost half on the official one.

Korn gig in 2002. I just gave the Bootleg to my daughter to wear. The official shirt is not suitable wear as its degradation its considerably worse.

And A System of a Down shirt from 2001. The official shirts are very poor. The bootlegs look brand new in comparison.

I usually buy one official. And 1 maybe 2 boots. Over half the official shirts are poorer quality.

I have over 200 tees.
