I don’t mean to make a habit of this, but someone e-mailed me asking for support of their entry into the Spreadshirt Derby, and I just can’t say no to people. So take a look at the naked running man (gonna click now aren’t cha!) and rate it how you judge.

Wemoto clothing from Germany produce some big, brash designs for their tees, but things get a little bit more subtle with their hoodie and zip-up track jacket collection. I guess that this is logo clothing, but since it is so subtle it creates a pretty nice effect, and the orange and white contrasts nicely on the navy and ash grey colours.
Wemoto print onto American Apparel, orders are sorted by e-mail.

All of our original designs are printed on American Apparel clothing and are of the finest quality. Now I will be the first to tell you that I don’t have much of a graphic design background, I think and design in terms of text, so that’s what you’ll find on a majority of our current designs. The next round of bedlam tees will be done by established artists and will move in a more graphic-based direction. To make room for the new stuff I’ve placed every bedlam tee on sale for $10 until inventory runs out.
Nice to see a bit of humility there from Michael, and whilst he says he thinks in terms of text, at least he’s picked some great fonts! So pick up a bargain or two, since you can’t really go wrong with American Apparel stock for $10.

302designs, established in December 2004, is run and managed by four unique individuals. Each partner brings their own differentiated interests, skills, and backgrounds to the company.
Each design is a symbolic representation of an individual’s feelings. Some of the recurring themes are emphasizing the importance of listening to one’s own internal passion, promoting individuality, and maintaining strength from within.
302 considers itself a socially conscious establishment. Keeping with this theme, we refuse to contribute to sweatshop conditions of any type. Each shirt is printed on material from American Apparel, out of L.A. They support fair wages and benefits for all their employees.
But I guess that since 302designs describes itself as a company that creates ‘poetic t-shirts’, you’re going to get descriptive language, and this theme runs through into their t-shirt designs. All the tees marry life-affirming and inspiring text with intricate and detailed graphics. It’s one of the strongest line-ups of inventory that I’ve seen for quite a while, if I were to choose one I’d really struggle, I only picked the one in the picture (Imagination) because I prefer brighter colours in the summer.
There is also a full girls section, including one or two designs that aren’t available for the guys.
All the items seem well priced, running between $20-$27, and considering how great I think these tees look, well worth the price.

Bit of a departure from our usual sleeve-based adventures, but I figured that you might be interested in seeing what Cool Hunting thought were the twelve best bags for men out there. I can’t see anything in there that would accommodate my laptop though, why did I have to go for a 17″ monitor? It really cuts down your options for a nice bag or sleeve. If anyone has any tips drop me an e-mail or leave a comment.
