band tees with boxy blanks?
where can I find new shirts printed on vintage-style, boxy blanks? Most print-on-demand sellers tend to use either cheap blanks like gilden and anvil or softer ones like comfort colors, bella and canvas, or alternative apparel that tend to have a long, slim fit with high, narrow sleeves like the last photo. Official merch isn't much better depending on the source. Where can I find tees printed on decent quality, boxy and/or slightly cropped blanks with wide sleeves?
Outside of official collabs like the this one, is it possible to find a range of options using blanks that are cut like this? I occasionally see some using shaka wear or people printing onto actual vintage tees, but those are both pretty rare. Is there any other specific blank or seller I should be looking for?

Hi @interpassivity! For better answers, include:
- Reference pictures
- Budget in numbers
- Specific measurements
- Openness to buying secondhand and/or online
- Location: country/continent is fine
- Timing/urgency
Go big and crop it urself
that can fix the overall width to a degree, but the sleeves on a shirt cut like that last one (most mid-tier blanks) will still look bad even if you size up
house of blanks and shakawear might be options
though imo if you're looking at band tees to wear i'd argue that support of the band is the primary thing, independent of how aesthetic the tee itself is
