Frequently Asked Questions

Are these real bands?
No. They are fake bands. That's where the site's name comes from.

But they look like real shirts.
That's because they ARE real shirts. Silkscreen on 100% cotton. You can buy them and wear them and everything.

Why would I want a shirt with the logo of a band that doesn't exist?
I don't know. Why do people buy shirts from Old Navy that feature fake baseball leagues or bowling teams or surf destinations? Because they're cool. Because they're unique. Because the artwork is rad. There are plenty of reasons, and quite a few of them involve the word "rad."

You totally stole my idea for a band name.
Sorry. Our crack research staff was pretty sure these bands didn't exist at the time the shirts were printed. But if you want to go with one of these names for your band, you can have it. As long as you'll let me sell your band's t-shirts. And if you're OK being known for a lack of originality.

Where do the names come from?
In the case of "Certain Sons of Belial" and "Forsake My Sweetness," they are phrases found in the Old Testament book of Judges (King James Version). The others are totally made-up.

So are these religious shirts?
As much as "forsake my sweetness" is a religious phrase.

What kind of shirts are these?
100% cotton Alstyle Apparel AAA 10oz tees. They're preshrunk, with double-needle sleeve and bottom hems. The artwork is silkscreened.

How do they fit?
Very well. The fit is slightly tapered for a more athletic look, which means they run a little bit smaller than your average shirt. Fake Band Shirts are available in S, M, L & XL.

Do you have XXL?
Not as of now. Sorry.

Do you have any women's sizes?
No, but that's a possibility in the future. If you like a certain design and would buy it in a women's size, send us an email and let us know.

What kind of payment do you accept?
Visa, Discover, MasterCard, American Express, and PayPal. When you click "Buy Now," you'll be redirected to our Big Cartel site where you can load up your shopping cart to your heart's content before you check out.

What is Factory43?
The umbrella creative organization that owns and operates FakeBandShirts.com.

Is this really Jason Boyett the writer?
Pretty much. Is this not a well-written website?

Stop it. I'm the one asking questions here.
Sorry.

Will you design a logo for my band?
Probably not.

Are these bands available on iTunes?
No. Please try to keep up.
