[–] arikrak 12y ago ↗ Congratulations to them. Who would've thought a "Kickstarter for t-shirts" would raise $20M? [–] sutterbomb 12y ago ↗ It's amazing to me that two t-shirt companies have raised significant rounds in the last 3 months. CustomInk raised $40M a few months ago: http://techcrunch.com/2013/11/11/customink-40m-ted-leonsis/Disclosure: I work for CustomInk. It's an exciting time to be in the t-shirt business.
