as for the minotauro t-shirts .....do you own one? No? then dont comment on the quality. You have no idea how they have printed it.

the t-shirts I was looking around its price range were basic t-shirts too like the Tapout and jesus didnt tap ...they are just as basic in design and printing.

Id rather a t-shirt be plain and mma related then have all this extra crap poorly designed! the played out skulls and shit.

I couldn't care if you can't afford it.........
I don't own one, but this is what I do for a living. And yes, just about every brand that you put on the list use advanced printing. The Minotauro shirts are printed on a Bare Apparel blank which is a high quality blank, and they are screen printed, plain and simple. Yes I do have an idea how they printed it. I didn't say that I can't afford it. I just don't wear t-shirts that I would have thought were cool when I was 12.

It is a basic standard size,spot color, more than likely waterbased screen print. A monkey could print this. I didn't say the print or the shirt was cheap, but the print is easy to print. It isn't an all over print, it doesn't have foil, it doesn't have embroidery, or any other advanced decoration method that would justify a company jacking up the price of the shirt. The shirts that cost the same as this have advanced print methods used.

Dude, look at every shirt in the $34-$38 category which is what the Minotauro shirts are in, and tell me which ones don't belong. Every single shirt besides the Minotauro shirts have either oversize/all over printing, foil, or both.
Now the $27-$34 category, same thing.
Move on down to the below $22 category and you start seeing shirts with similar print methods used. $35 for that shirt is about twice what I would expect to see. I print all over prints and foil prints on a daily basis, and most of those companies don't even charge $35 per shirt, and they are paying premium to have them printed. $35 for that shirt is crazy.

Hmm, you make a strong agrument. You convinced me not to get one, unless maybe Minotauro becomes UFC HW champ.

ignore him!!! he's just poor! im wearing mine as i type and its really nice and comfortable. The shirts are athetic fit. They look good.

While some tee's are more expensive because of higher standard printing. While i wll say these tee's could be a little overpriced say by $5 they are still great. we could argue all day about printing prices but what I'm saying is that they are reasonably priced among other similar t-shirts
