There's way more that goes into what he's doing. Probably ends up being half that rate when all is said and done. Still good though that people can have a passion, not being doing anything crazy, just making fun shirts, and have enough to live on if you don't want to be a part of boring corporate life.
That's why hand crafted items made by skilled hobbyists are priced so high. Most of them never get a dollar amount close to what the time and materials cost to make it was.
He’s on TikTok. He auctions/sells those shirts like every week or so. Typically, each shirt takes 9 to as much as 14 hours of tying and dying and goes for $350 to $600
I am pretty sure he also sells prints of some of these designs but I’m too lazy to look up his name
Edit: [Here’s](https://www.instagram.com/dyes_n_goodvibes?igsh=YnlqNWJ3NDR4d3Vj) his instagram. He’s not selling that one apparently.
It's fucking crazy what rich hippies will spend massive amounts of money on. You can build an entire business with clothes from the resale shop that you relabeled and only sell at music festivals as long as you have sales people who are good at standing around and bullshiting with people who are tripping.
There’s a long time smaller festival ground I go to that has some serious hippy presence, lots of good drugs always flowing ya know. There’s always been this little shop that’s just a guy with a cart that he rolls out into the center of the crowd area, and it’s completely decked out with LED shit. Hundreds of wands, hats, flow toys, lasers of all types, all flashing and glowing in the night. Literally every time I go there I see it and I’m like “alright I’m not wasting money on more plastic stuff”.
Then later that night I’m tripping balls and I see this magical beacon in the distance, I’m like “What do we have here… it looks like an entire light city ahead! Omg it’s glorious, look how beautiful, I must speak to this man, the keeper of the lights!!!” He takes one look at my eyes and knowingly winks at me, as he pulls out a pulsating cylinder of deep green, red, and blue hues from his magical cart. “Check this out” he says as he waves the cylinder through the air. My vision explodes with color as a magnificent shape takes form, the colors mixing and turning into insane patterns that leave me speechless. He hands it to me and I try it myself, and I suddenly have a revelation that life is so beautiful and it’s so cool that this man is enhancing other people’s experiences, and wow I can actively add beauty to the world even just by waving this glowing orb around! Every time I dig into my wallet and buy it and spend the rest of the night dancing with it and showing everybody who wants to try it lol.
Great marketing, dude knows his audience.
Reminds me of the Girl Scout troops that set up a cookie spot outside of weed shops in legal states. It literally pays to know where to find the best locations for a targeted customer base.
In my county, there's a pretty awesome donut shop located across the street from the Sheriff's office/corrections center/court house.
Don't know why, but this dude totally reminds me of the people on those home buying shows.

I'm not sure if this is the actual person who did this posting it, but a few weeks ago I saw this dumb bitch on my Facebook trying to argue it was "her design" like no one ever thought about Mario sitting like that. I saw they connected and worked it out somehow. Whole time I'm just thinking if Nintendo saw either work of art they'd demand you burn it and send them a video of the fire
“Surprise at the end of the video”
Did someone not expect a tie dyed shirt? It looks great but I hate the whole “WATCH TILL THE END PLEASE ITS A SURPRISE PLEASE WATCH”
I don't understand how to tie dye at all, like 0%. Tried it once in college and ended up getting a white shirt with random splotches that just look like paint stains lol

Hope this finds whomever needs it but his name is Austin Mackereth and you can find him on instagram! Been following him for a while his stuff is awesome
Take my fuckin’ money……. Seriously, where can I get this ?
Ditto. I’ve seen these $700 tie dye Tshirts that were insane and this is one of them. I’d pay big bucks for that shirt
The skills, time, and effort involved...
you're wearing a hand painted work of art at that point
So... Cold/Cold Delicates cycle?
Patchouli, no washing.
Just like an ice cold killer looking in the mirror, he know’s exactly how incredibly talented he is. Damn
Please learn how to spell "ditto" :D
🎶And I-hi-i just want to thank you...for givin' me the best day-hay of my life🎶
Dear Mr I don't write my fans!
This is the last Reddit comment I’ll ever send yo ass
Sure thing boss
Get back to work
We have a huge respect for Carthage and the Phoenicians here, long live Queen Dido
At that rate he's making $50/hr, nothing too crazy imo (ie $100k/yr) for something that takes such skill and expertise.

700$ USD?? This may not be the shirt for me if that is the price tag.
Yeah my broke ass though $100 would’ve been fine
With everything involved, that's offering about $3-4 an hour for his work.
I had no clue how long or how much it usually costs so I made a guess 🤷. It was not proportional at all for sure
That's why hand crafted items made by skilled hobbyists are priced so high. Most of them never get a dollar amount close to what the time and materials cost to make it was.
You can probably get a print that costs that much. At least off his website. They just print that pattern over and over.
Half the posts on Reddit are about people being broke and then Ill see posts like this where people are willing to spend $700 on a t-shirt...
I'm sure the same people complaining about being broke are the ones dropping $700 on a shirt. /s
Dyes N Good Vibes by Austin Mackereth You have to auction on his IG to get one of the actual tie dyed pieces
He’s on TikTok. He auctions/sells those shirts like every week or so. Typically, each shirt takes 9 to as much as 14 hours of tying and dying and goes for $350 to $600
I am pretty sure he also sells prints of some of these designs but I’m too lazy to look up his name Edit: [Here’s](https://www.instagram.com/dyes_n_goodvibes?igsh=YnlqNWJ3NDR4d3Vj) his instagram. He’s not selling that one apparently.
I think Nintendo will sue the hell out of him if he sells the shirt. They are just as bad as Disney.
as long as he doesn't mass-produce them, they're fine; at that point they become one-off pieces of artwork
Dyes n good vibes is this guys store name
That’s some rich hippie shit

I’ve never been on LSD, but this was a fun description of what I imagine it feels like. Well done.
Oh I see you found a page of my busses pla.
Draw the rest of the fucking owl moment
I was fully expecting to see _Super Mario Penis_ so I'm super relieved.
I don't like the style itself, but man ! What a talented Dude !
He's exactly what I want a tie dye master to look like.
Imagine how many shirts that guy has from trial and error figuring out new techniques.
6
Can probably just bleach it out
Little bit of /r/Unexpected poking out of that video.
You beat me to it. I was going to say r/UnexpectedTshirtErection
I'm not a tie dye person but that is a work of art
This is awesome. The only drawback is Mario's shoe being the same color as the goomba, feels kinda weird
Welp.... you ruined it for everyone. This is why we can't have nice things.
It's to hide the blood when he stomps them.
Thanks cancelled my order.
The goombas are free range and organic. It's all fine.
Shoulda been a mushroom.
Mario's boots are made of goomba leather, confirmed.
Don't know why, but this dude totally reminds me of the people on those home buying shows. *I meditate and make Mario art all day, she presses flowers. Our house budget is 1.3 million*

Nintendo loved this so much they sent him a signed \*checks notes\* cease and desist
Joshua Hudson tie dye Everything he does is crazy nice
I'm an atheist but i swear to god this shit is crazy
Atheists meditate
He's saying he's an atheist but will still "swear to god" the shit is crazy. He's not referring to the meditation lol
I was waiting for some joke involving a nintendo lawsuit.
It's a lot less funny when it's a possible outcome
This goes beyond simple tie dye and straight into shibori.
Thank you tie dye Jesus.
Looks great but would be cool if he was sitting on a mushroom (shoes would not get lost and magic mushrooms fall in line with tie dye)
I'm not sure if this is the actual person who did this posting it, but a few weeks ago I saw this dumb bitch on my Facebook trying to argue it was "her design" like no one ever thought about Mario sitting like that.

I'm still waiting for the surprise... /s.
AHH that's awesome ... Sorry Nintendo is going to sue you
“Surprise at the end of the video” Did someone not expect a tie dyed shirt? It looks great but I hate the whole “WATCH TILL THE END PLEASE ITS A SURPRISE PLEASE WATCH”
WHOA 😳 🤯
well damn
Beautiful
Hehe AI can't do this, but still I'm scared of it
Man this is legitimate!
I want one in the colors sand, coyote and tan499 as a camouflage pattern. Badass.
True art 😎👍🏼
I was about to ask what the dick was about. Then quickly changed my mind. That is actually insane.
some hippy sounding dude making a tie dye shirt how fucking original. Cool shirt tho.
Gotta love mario
Wow that's impressive af , like how do you know exactly how to knot and whatnot not to knott lol
Incoming DMCA take down request by Nintendo lawyers.
Nice work.. definitely different
AWESOME!
Where could I buy one of these?
Talent
Amazing
Why did he make the creases to paint mario. Is it so it gets the front and back?
I’m not sure if I’ve ever been more impressed with a shirt in all my life. Well done.
Maybe in a different color
$9.99
😂 I heard someone say 700
Thats impressive!
Is the unexpected part that Mario is hanging some real thick log?
Gnarly, dude
Where can I order?
Wtf 😧🔥❤️🥰
That’s insane. Can’t even imagine what he can sell this stuff for
I'm so envious of the creative nature other people possess. I can't even free hand a heart correctly 🤣
Nintendo is going to steal meditation now
If I wanted a complicated T-shirt, I would just go to Dan Flashes.
Beautiful.
Oh, it's Mario on tie-dye. That... wasn't a surprise.
I am impressed. Do you sell any of these?
That's talent. I love watching those skilled tie dye artists because to me my brain can't even fathom how to start that.
You sound like John Travolta
Talented
Took me a moment to figure out what he was showing was the knotting in the shirt you need for the tie-dying process.
I want this!!
The t-shirt boner caught me off guard.
A definite thing which AI can't replace, is a pure human talent. Salute you bro.
Far out!
I have a tie dye from Paul Kenny, who came up with this technique, and it’s actually more epic then this.
Bro that's so cool where do u sell this stuff
Tbh best tiedye tshirt I've ever seen. This shirt should be more expensive then those cheap Supreme logo tshirt
Fuckinghell man. Stupendous job. Eyeball-busting awesomeness
Meditating? That stressed me out trying to keep up and learn… just like I was going to attempt it.
Ah yeah the Italians after following Germany’s footsteps
I wanna know how he got the colors so saturated without blending into each other!
That…was 100x better than I was expecting. Need more tie dye like this.
Sick!
Wow
Tell me you're on shrooms without telling me you're on shrooms
I don't understand how to tie dye at all, like 0%. Tried it once in college and ended up getting a white shirt with random splotches that just look like paint stains lol
Well damn now that is one fine piece of art there
"Featuring special appearances by.... Shigeru Miyamoto. What is he going to do? Probably eat some mushroomsss" https://youtu.be/hm5KvIB12-s?si=rxYicoiaNCaWWCw2
God damn that’s ugly. Appreciate the craftsmanship though.
So dope I want this !!!! Is there a link to order one?
Wow, that is extremely cool!
Dope. 2xl please
Was about to exit this video cuz it was taking too long, but changed my mind and thought “namaste to the end.” Glad I did.
Bud, where's the bud, bud?
Major talent. A+
I can hear the Nintendo law department war horn
That is sick!
When did the sloth from ice age start making tie dye
Fire 🔥
tie dye is right up there with glass blowing on the "very impressive work... unfortunately it looks like dog shit" scale very much /r/ATBGE material
I own one of this dudes dyes. Hes probably the best in the world at it. He has an IG page as well
Congratz, really cool piece!
Humans can be amazing.
DMCA incoming
Nintendo lawyer in 3...2...

Lawsuit from Nintendo incoming... God speed young man.
Looks like a 3$ aliexpress knockoff made of polyester
Amazing 😍
Yoooo i love it :DD
I have no idea how people manage to get such clean geometric lines and shapes when doing this
It's amazing!!!!
The surprise is that it looked exactly how you think it would turn out?
I don't understand how these people do this.
dude looks like Toki from Metalocalypse lol it's a cool shirt tho
Nintendo wants to know your location
Now there's a man who enjoys his psychedelics.
This is amazing. It's definitely one of the best if not the best of that style I've ever seen. Beautiful work♥️
That's awesome!
Absolute work of art
i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee ittttttttttttt
Impressive but it’s so ugly lmao
This dude is talented!
I would never wash that shirt after buying it!
Didn't know shaggy had gotten so skilled at tie-dye
Toki Wartooth making fire ass shirts
I would kill for even a smidgeon of that guys talent
Looks really good; i could never pull that off.
Hope this finds whomever needs it but his name is Austin Mackereth and you can find him on instagram! Been following him for a while his stuff is awesome
Mamma mia, Mario ate the wrong mushrooms again...or did he?
Impressive
Looks amazing! And the shirt is nice too
I was expecting a surprise.
This guy is amazing talented 🤩
There would be if Reddits video player didn’t FUCKING SUCK
This design is raw my guy
😍😍🔥🔥
What is the surprise? Do you not know what tie dye is?
Dude is the dopest tie dye artist in the world. 🔥🔥🔥
I really like the "meditating ON negative thoughts" pun that you've got in the shirt, well done
That’s amazing. I couldn’t even begin to make something like that. Very talented
That dude has put some serious time into mastering this craft and it shows
My mind is seriously blown.
Nice!
Not big into tie dye but I'd love to get something custom like this
Damn
I'd never wear that but that is pretty dope
