Newschoolers Clothing price increase

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to give you a heads up that we're going to slightly increase the price of the newschoolers clothing. I know I know this sucks, but with the direction of the US dollar we can't afford to keep them as low as they've been. This winter we've been buying all of our stuff in Canada and selling it in USD, and doing everything we can to pass the savings onto you.

It will only be about $2 on our white shirts (none of the older stuff will go up) but this little tiny bit extra will really help to support the store.

With how much success we've had over the last year, we want to really turn the dial up on our offerings. We've got to stockpile a bit of cash so we can get some ultra cool stuff ready for fall/winter and this will really help.

So if you're looking for some fresh duds... or a cool accessory like our new mousepads... then head over to the NS store and pick something up to rep your favorite website. Every dollar goes directly towards making our store and this site a better product for you!

Well! The fact of the matter is that the people who own newschoolers reside in California. The owners are in cali, the servers are in cali, almost everything is in cali! The only thing that isn't there is us who handle operations out of Montreal.

Its been wonderful that our parent company has let us continue our operation, but the god honest truth is that newschoolers is an american owned company. We just run it out of Canada.

Its like Intellectual NAFTA. Well and as a matter of fact our clothing also runs under the whole awesome NAFTA thing. :)

I mean Canada... US.... we're so close anyways. :)

the ending is what's important
it takes a devoted team of montrealers (and other canadians) to run this badass site on a daily basis

i have a sad story

so my 3D NS t-shirt arrived in the mail 2 days ago and i was quick to get it in the laundry so i could wear it and have some extra punch with the ladies. to my dismay i had left a goddam pen in my pocket. i did not even like this pen, it was one of those pens that is so inky it just smudges and leaks through everything so the paper ends up looking like someone sneezed ink all over your perfectly crafted letters. so the pen falls out of the machine when i open it, instant "uh oh." this morning i lift my beautiful shirt out of the hamper and there's ink all over it, just ruining it instantly. of course, it's the ONLY item of clothing in the entire hamper to have any ink on it whatsoever, including the white shorts in which the pen was originally in the pocket of. so that is my sad story, now i have to wear my yellow NS tee which the ladies love but they're getting bored of it because i wear it so often
