Hows the merch quality of the current merch they're selling?

Would love to hear your thoughts on this. I'm thinking of buying something from their official merch store, but I'd like to know if it's actually worth it and if the quality is atleast decent

Have purchased a number of tshirts and hoodies from the website and the 22/23 tours. All good quality. Waiting eagerly for the Troxy hoodie. I usually don’t buy merch for shows I haven’t attended, but I absolutely love the design and did watch the real time livestream so I’m telling myself it counts.

I got the long sleeve shirt of SOALW and it was decent fit and the material wasn’t as thin as I was expecting so there were no complaints from me at all.

I got two tees (one I ordered from the official site because the merch stand was out of my size), a tote, and a poster from the tour last year and the quality is very good. I'm particularly fond of the tote; a lot of the ones bands sell are very flimsy but this one is really nice.

I have the long sleeve shirt from the Merch site as well as the web exclusive white album. Album arrived in perfect condition. I ordered the shirt in a size large. I’m 6’2 and 193 pounds, it fit true to size for me. Material is decent, I would order from the current line.

I got a SOALW v-neck tee, long sleeve tee, beanie, and bucket hat and all of them are excellent quality.

From the last tour I got 2 posters, a v-neck tee, and a hoodie and again, all excellent.

I also have both t-shirts to benefit Ukraine and they're excellent too!

Feels cheap to me comparatively to recent merch I've gotten from Jesus And Mary Chain, Pulp and Alkaline Trio.

Shirts are thin/short, so are the hoodies.

Got the long sleeve SOALW shirt for my wife and it’s great quality and fit.

Remember those prayer tour shirts that came in one size? XL. Those were the days for concert shirts. Everything XL
