Last Monday I told you that we’re doing a few reprints and announced the first one. Most of those shirts have been sold out for days already – only a small amount of them are still available for our laFraise-girls out there. I had the pleasure of wearing mine over the weekend and am quite excited to announce the second reprint; "Samurai Shadows" is here!
The design has been tweaked a bit from the original and 500 of these are now available in black but not for long! Massive respect to Neil for making this one.
Next Monday there will yet another one… wonder which design it’ll be. I can honestly say I don’t even know myself.
Quand j’achète un t-shirt en édition limitée à 500 exemplaires pour un prix qui le mérite, je tiens à ce que ce t-shirt reste en édition limitée à 500 exemplaire comme promis. Je suis dégoûté. Entre le RSS qui foire, l’identification impossible sous Konqueror et maintenant çà … J’ai acheté mon premier lafraise en 2003, c’était "HACKER" à l’époque où la boutique était encore sous titrée "online geek shop since 1962". Vous venez de perdre un client. (si les ice crime sont ré édités je pense qu’il va y avoir des meurtres :-) )
Ah oui, l’impression de Samurai Shadows a assez mal résisté au lavage, des craquelures sont apparues au niveau du fond après le deuxième ou troisième passage en machine.
Since you decided to write this to the EU blog rather than the french one wouldn’t you think it’s more efficient if you wrote in english? ;)
I’d like to be able to reply to you but I just have no idea what you’re saying. :/
he’s just saying he is against the reprint because he paid his tshirt enough money to expect it to stay limited ;)
btw who won friday’s game? ;)
Here’s something competely different in english..
I’ve just joined and seems template_tee.zip maybe corrupt - all other template zips i can extract ok, i wonder if the problem might be with that file?
Sorry for butting in here, doesn’t seem anywhere else to let lafraise know the problem as really keen to upload my designs:(
Ah, as I said on my blogpost about the first reprint I was one of the members of our team that felt we shouldn’t make any reprints at all. So, yes - in a way I do understand how Vineus feels. Now that we’re doing them and I’m actually seeing myself how they are done my opinion has somewhat changed; every print is presented differently compared to the original, there’s a clear label inside the shirt that sets the reprints apart from the original and last but not least, we actually pay the designer the same 1000€ for the reprint we do for a new design.
Also, only 8 reprints will be made at this point. I don’t feel we’re ripping off our community or especially the designers. The community has become larger than it used to be and continues to expand all the time. Showing our new members some of the classics is a nice way to introduce them to the laFraise history.
We’re sorry if this offends someone, because we certainly don’t mean to do that. Our aim is to keep you as happy as possible. :)
doodlinhjim, welcome to the site and it great that you’re already giving feedback! ^_^
I’ll check what’s going on with that file. If it’s indeed corrupted we’ll fix that and if there nothing wrong with it I’ll contact you via email to see what’s the matter. :)
Thanks jouni, am looking forward to opening that template_tee.zip
Infact i’m gonna give it a bash right now.
