I need a second opinion on this shirt. TIA.

As far as I remember, this is double stitch for Tultex
I just saw that this Tultex has a single stitch, because this Tultex also produces plain T-shirts and almost all of them are double stitch.
The screen printing is still very good, there are no visible signs of cracks on the screen printing and the silver glitter is still very bright but is the screen printing still sticky?
because if it's still sticky, maybe the screen printing is still new or it's screen printed from a vintage blank teebecause it is impossible for a Marilyn Manson shirt not to have been worn by its owner. If it was from 1995, the shirt would probably have faded and cracked prints.
If you look at the photo and the article, what makes it odd is the single stitch.

Indeed, this tultex products generally have double stitching. Regarding this
Manson tee, I've also seen one with a tultex tag - it had double stitching but had no licensed stamp,does this one also look off?

Well that's the original

After digging deeper, I found some interesting details. The fake Smashing Pumpkins tee at this link (https://www.reddit.com/r/SmashingPumpki ... ifference/) has a Tultex tag identical to that single-stitched Manson tee. The typical lightning bolt Manson T-shirts we see are dated 1998, not 1995 (https://tshirtslayer.com/tshirt-or-long ... tning-bolt). As for the double-stitched Manson tee, I regret to say I think it's also fake. Check another example I found on the Chinese second-hand market—compare their prints and tags with legit ones closely, and they exhibit discrepancies.
