And now for aan article of clothing that I am intrigued by, but am not sure that I like. I love the way this chocolate and turquoise tank looks in the pics. I love the weirdly asymmetrical cut and unfinished edges. But I have some questions about the craftspersonship and quality of finish for the price.
Don’t get me wrong. I am 100% behind almost any DIY aesthetic and this is no exception. But I am not a yuppie who thinks it’s reasonable to spend $65 on a ripped up tank top. So, if anyone has experience with this line and whether the quality warrants the cash money price tag, please let me know.
Pricely nitpicking aside, this top is totally convertible, to which I say RAD, and also weird and falling apart looking. So long as it’s not actually going to fall apart, I’m good with it, and would rock it verily with denim shorts and combat boots or gladiators. Available from Led Thread.

Hi Tracey!
Craig’s right–I make my stuff right. Idiosyncratic, weird, rough–but it’ll stay in one piece. I construct my stuff so it’ll fray and wear in with time–that’s my aesthetic. Check out my feedback and my return customers–they wouldn’t keep coming back for more if LedThread didn’t last.

(PS, I lowered the price a bit
Awesome, thanks for answering Layla.
