It hit me just now that Johnny Cupcakes if one of the few ‘indie’ designers/labels that tee blogs feature who gets away with putting their name and logo on almost every design. Usually, I hear an argument that people don’t wear Nike, Adidas, etc. tees because they don’t want to be a walking billboard, but I get the feeling that that isn’t the case with Johnny Case, its more like people are proud to support the label, at least until they get too big and there’s a backlash (like with Threadless, not that it seems to have hurt them). Perhaps its also because the name and logo were built into the designs from day one, so it would actually be kind of weird if they didn’t have a name or logo plastered across each design.

Recently, JC released some new designs, and I’m pretty sure that this boombox tee is one of them. And even if it isn’t, that doesn’t really stop me liking it. At first I thought this tee was printed with gold foil, but on closer inspection I get the feeling its just gold ink, which is a little disappointing because with the subject being a boombox I felt as if it could really kick this design up a notch, but I guess I’ll just have to stick with Bean Dip for my gold foil boombox needs. and I was right, it is on fold foil, awesome!

The tee is also available for guys.
