To Omighty — And Other Brands Like Them — Please Stop Making Us Spend $48 For Your $5 Tees

If you aren't an avid Dolls Kill shopper, or haven't heard of the brand Omighty, it's essentially a brand that sells various items marketed to girls and women. Shirts with risque yet empowering messages and edgy cannabis references are sprinkled among y2k-inspired wear.

I became familiar with the brand because I do regularly browse Dolls Kill and I tend to gravitate towards 2000s fashion. I ended up purchasing a marabou tube top for around $36, which was marked down on the site from its original whopping price of $48.



While I admit I think the clothes they sell are trendy, bold, and unique, I cannot say that Omighty should be charging $34 to $100 on singular pieces. In addition to this, the cost for 3-to-4 weeks shipping is $5, and for "express" shipping three-to-four days, they charge $20! The website is hard to navigate and makes you think you can't really trust it with any piece of your credit card information.

With that being said, another common issue with Omighty lies specifically with the production of their products. A Trustpilot review spoke of how their items shrunk two sizes after being washed and they were initially flimsy and see-through.

The Omighty website confirms that each piece is screen printed and hand-stitched by seamstresses in Thailand. Because of this, I do firmly believe that anybody interested in buying pieces from this brand to buy them second hand or from websites like Dolls Kill.

You shouldn't have to spend your entire paycheck on shipping your order out from Thailand, and since DollsKill is based in San Francisco, your shipping will be fast and free!

Omighty entices you with edgy clothes. They market their products on Instagram and pull out all the stops to reference pop culture in creative ways. It makes so much sense why they are so popular with younger millennials and Generation Z. I believe they would be more successful if they made some business changes, ones that include manufacturing in the US.


What's most likely holding them back is that they make a HUGE profit by creating clothes with cheap materials in Thailand and generating insane shipping costs. Or, by avoiding legal issues concerned with copyright with the usage of intellectual properties on their clothing that could be an issue here in America.

No loyal customer would be mad at paying the same price they charge now for clothes that aren't flimsy. It's just reality. So Omighty, please hear me out. Your clothes attract a crowd of college students and Instagram influencers that want to experiment with cutting edge trends and mixed pop culture references. You could be gaining a larger audience by expanding to the US and creating an incentive for dishing out $48 on a tube top.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
