Hi, It's Alexander from Equal Apparel (aka Farennikov Apparel). I'm in LA, California, and started my t-shirt line about 2 weeks ago. I have made 3 designs but printed only 1 so far, 2 more are coming in about 2-4 weeks.

My website is http://equalapparel.com
(right now it redirects to www.farennikov.com because I am in the middle of changing the line name).

Cool designs, but why are the only available sizes Small and Medium?

Don't forgot XL and XXL Lots of t-shirt lovers wear bigger sizes.

Welcome to the T-Shirt Forums! I think your site is the first t-shirt site (besides t-shirts.com) that I've seen use Google Checkout. How do you like it?

thanks for the comment. I don't think I will be printing XL and XXL any time soon. I have very limited resources so I'll start with the most common sizes and maybe later on add these sizes.

As for Google checkout, it's good, I like it. It takes not too long to set up (same as PayPal) plus it has API and I actually got it to work, but during the setup process I had a few errors so Google suspended my account for less then a day, and I went back to manually entering items on the checkout backend. I'll use that for now while I don't have too many items, and then I'll finish their API in PHP.

So yeah, try it if you want. Also, forgot to mention, because I use AdWords on same account and spend few hundred bucks a month on ads (for a different website), I get this amout times 10 free purchases processing, so Google waves all processing fees while I'm under that amount.

L & XL are probably the two most popular sizes among men. It all depends who youre demogrphic is. Welcome to the forum!

Trust me XL and XXL are very "common" sizes

According to a recent t-shirt survey, they make up over 30% of the market. That's a lot of potential customers to turn away.
