Filed under S for Stupid

I accidentally deleted the links page, including all those affiliate links that everyone loves (they’re good stores, I swear!).

I’ve re-written it from memory as best I can, but I’ve got a feeling that I’ve missed off some of the selected stores. If you think you were on there (or you want to be on there) could you please drop me an e-mail and I’ll try and get things back on track.

Still got a heartbeat

by Andy on May 8, 2006

Josh Spear (the self-proclaimed ‘pulse of cool’), has gone and re-designed and re-launched his globe-trotting blog. Josh highlights excellent design around the world, but seems to make it a bit more fun than other ‘cool blogs’ in the ‘sphere. Nice guy too, he’s gonna do a guest feature here at HYA when he finds the time.

Check it out.

An Imaginary Track Jacket

by Andy on May 8, 2006

142745976 f473643174 m An Imaginary Track Jacket

Embroidery on clothing does seem to make it feel a bit more luxurious than regular screen-printing, even if excessive stitchery has a tendency to render the fabric less flexible.

The Imaginary Foundation is a think-tank of free-thinkers who wanted to “eliminate set conventions in favor [sic for Brits] of the humorous,
the abstract and the visionary”. Frankly, I don’t care what they do as long as the merch is nice. It is!

As I alluded (sp?) to earlier, this track jacket has an embroidered logo, which has a pretty funky font, which I assume is abstract and humorous. Its hard to make out from the picture but the there are two colours in the logo, my favourite light blue for ‘the’ and ‘foundation’ and some classic white for ‘imaginary’.

Costiness=$70 (free thought costs) from The Imaginary Foundation.

*Early post today because my classmates and I are going out to celebrate the completion of our dissertations (10,000 words, 1 years research and work) and I don’t trust myself to post after an evenings revelry.*

141946745 faf21fa53b o King Kong Shrimp love Mother Nature
KingKongShrimp have a decent female range, so I thought that I’d continue giving KKS some love by pointing out this cool ‘Creatures Great And Small’ long-sleeve T with raglan sleeves. There’s obv. a hippo being preened by some friendly birds, as is nature, and the colours compliment each other pretty sweet, what else can I say?

Costiness=$24.95 from KingKongShrimp.

141941564 adae548368 o King Kong Shrimp can keep my secrets
I don’t really understand what a giant human stomping robot has to do with people being able to look after my secrets, but it doesn’t stop this sweater being pretty dang fresh. Maybe its because it’s white, everything seems fresh when it’s in white. It’s a pretty big print, but since it’s just one colour and a line drawing it doesn’t seem too overpowering, but big-prints seem to be taking over the world at the moment, so you guys will probably dig it.

Costiness=$29.95 available from KingKongShrimp.
