Thanks guys. My fingers are crossed on it.

Crossing fingers too

What's the deal with that tee you got, Kristy? Is the logo embossed?

I love the 'I know' shirt, I must have it!

The 'burn out' shirt is really cool - it is like burnout velvet (Ep2 Padme costumes, for eg.), where the blue part of the fabric is missing, and the white 'backing' is all you see, if that helps explain? It's really soft cotton fabric, so if you're wearing something brightly coloured underneath, the colour would show through the burnout logo.

Thanks for explaining that, Kristy; Her Universe needs a better copywriter, I reckon!

The burnout patch is kinda transparent though isn't it? At least that is what I had heard from another friend who bought one. She was a little surprised how see-through that part was. She suggested it wouldn't be something she'd wear without something else on beneath. Is that fair comment Kristy or didn't you find it to be the case with your's. I wondered whether hers might have been from a bad batch or something perhaps?

Allllright...

That's true - I would possibly wear skin coloured underwear, but anything with colour/print will show right through. Obviously back-lighting wouldn't happen while wearing it, but this pic shows how well you can see through the burn out area - I put the tshirt over my laptop screen - putting printed paper underneath is the same, I can read everything.

Wow, that really is transparent. I don't think that's evident the way they advertise the t-shirt, which is probably why my friend was caught by surprise when her's arrived. It's not a big deal of course - you can always throw something on underneath, but I think they should be clearer about it when they show images. In the pictures I have seen of Ashley modelling it, it isn't evident that she's wearing a different top underneath. It looks like the burnout is more like a half toned white print on the fabric.

Anyways, not a big deal, but thanks for clarifying that.

Made use of the Black Friday specials on SWshop.com, and picked up the Cat Staggs 'I know' Her Universe shirt. I wish SWshop carried all the HU items, but they do ship them internationally (and got the Slave Leia pen as a free gift with my order too).

It's a great shirt, lovely soft fabric, I like the artwork

That's cooler than I thought; the site really doesn't sell the products very well.
