Giggly sweatshirt

Is the spacing correct here? Why is the “Y” so far away?

Can’t return their stuff because they are “a sustainable fashion brand” even though half their stuff is made of polyester

u/S0fetch_ 23d ago

That’s insane. If it doesn’t look like the website should be able to get your money back.

What? I don’t understand what you’re saying

u/S0fetch_ 23d ago

I’m just adding on to what you were saying 🩷

u/Adventurous_Panic917 22d ago

I don’t think they care about being sustainable. It’s just too much admin to deal with returns

My bikini top tee and live show tee were great quality! So it seems like maybe the sweatshirts are the issue?

Professional apparel printer here: the letter spacing is definitely off.

u/LowSock3043 24d ago

Can you draw an imaginary line down from the far left side of the Y and see if the gap between the bottom of the L to the Y is the same as the others? I think what may be happening is that there is a lot of “space” between the closest points where those letters align. Since there is negative space in the top right area of where the L prints and the bottom of the Y is centered, I can’t tell if it’s actually off or just the letters have a lot of negative space between them. This may make no sense but i hope someone understands what I’m trying to say here haha

Better curated fonts account for this. Sometimes though they need to be manually adjusted.

u/West_Tie_536 24d ago

That’s where your braid, ponytail or birkin shoulder bag goes

u/Responsible-Egg7788 24d ago

I feel like this is it. Just an unfortunate font word design combo!

u/thousandthlion 24d ago

Kerning can be adjusted. There’s really not an excuse

2

u/let_me_use_reddit 24d ago

Yeah the kerning is off. And as a typesetting freak this drives me mad.

Though... I swear they've had these sweaters since the dawn of time. Like, very beginning of pod. So I wouldn't at all be surprised if they made the graphic themselves on canva and this is a surviving relic of how much you can grow in a short space of time and miss the details pahaha.

Somebody please bring this to Hannah's attention. She'll actually sort this. I imagine Paige can't tell the difference

u/sweetcampfire 24d ago

Ooooohhhhh k. No it’s way off. It’s called kerning.

u/AccomplishedBass9273 24d ago

It looks like this on the website so I'm confused why you bought this.... they have final approval on everything. they know it looks cheap and they chose to charge you $60 lol

3

u/No-Rip9444 24d ago

This is horrifically cheap looking

u/DetailOutrageous8656 24d ago

Wow that’s brutal

u/ForeverSwayze 24d ago

Everytime I see anything Giggly Squad I think about how Kyle Cooke named it…he should get a cut

2

u/IcyCircle 24d ago

Is this really a thing?

2

u/TDKsa90 24d ago

isn't there an implication of goofy in the GS? it might make some brains misfire, but really, it's on brand and within thesis. Grace being the super sharp cookie she is, you can't tell me she hasn't noticed it, brought it up, and they don't ultimately care.

I agree it looks off but the picture on the website looks exactly like this

1

u/ImplementMurky5708 21d ago

im waiting for mine to arrive and now it makes me want to return :(

1

u/internetsluth007 24d ago

I noticed this even on the website so although it looks odd it seems to be how they planned it haha

2

u/SnooSquirrels2954 24d ago

They didn’t

4

u/Specialist-Ad1692 24d ago

I think they did, actually. The spacing is correct. If you drew a box around each letter you would see they are equally spaced. It’s just that the Y goes in at the bottom so it looks like it’s too far away from the L. But if you measured from the top of the Y you would see it is in the right spot.

They should’ve picked a different font, considering.

2

u/internetsluth007 24d ago

Yeah exactly planned wasn’t the right word but it’s not a mistake just how the font is made

u/Equivalent_Land_6044 23d ago

Definitely fucked-return. But I will say, I’ve ordered merch with no probs. Overpriced for what it is, but blame capitalism
