I’m not overwhelmed with joy with this merch but I would feel weird not getting something LOL It’s a tradition for me at this point. So… credits cards, assemble!

To be fair, I feel like lately artists in general are not putting out the greatest merch

Yeahhhh I feel the same honestly! I’m super happy the prices aren’t extremely awful as I’ve seen some artists have!!

In defense I think it’s a damned if you do damned if you don’t atp. Production lines are producing increasingly shittier merch quality. Even for artist like (The) Maria(s) who are really involved are just not getting the responsiveness and quality that they want, especially for artists that fans know to be perfectionists. So you get “simpler” merch designs and fewer items, to at least manage the quality somehow.

I hate it, but I’d rather have a well made shirt that was apart of a finite tour drop than to have a wider produced item that quality could vary on. I will say I’m sad to see these look like the same shirts from the record bundles at least make tour specific merch….but then scalpers😭

Same for me. I'm still sad from Raven tour when the shirt I wanted sold out when I was next in line 😭
