Public Domain Clothing sent me a box with seven tees in it. Seven. I’m not saying that you can buy my love, but I may well actually be in love with a clothing company. I’m going to review every tee individually, but don’t worry about it being PDC overload for the next couple of weeks, I’m going to spread it out, although these tees are great so I wouldn’t really mind if I had to review them every day for the next month.

I wore ‘turntable mega’ on Saturday night and it was received pretty well, its not exactly one of those tees that demands that people pay attention to it, but there’s a certain subtle class and quality to the design and the colourway that I really like, its almost a perfect execution of this style. I’m really into large prints at the moment, which is probably why I’m going so ga-ga over this turntable tee, and the way that the design wraps around to the side looks really nice, and that kind of non-standard placement separates this tee out from your standard image on chest tee.

The printing is lovely, I ran my fingers across the tee with my eyes closed and I barely (and I really mean barely) tell the difference between the printed and non-printed areas. I’m not sure if their blank tees are custom to Public Domain, or if they’re printing on a commercially availble stock tee (it feels as if it might be American Apparel, and the cut is very similar to AA as well), but it certainly did feel soft when I gave it a road test in a hot and smoky club at the weekend.

A couple more pics after the break.


The interior tag printing is done with silver foil, shiny shiny!

1Yes, all of our tees are custom made w/ fabric we wash b/f cutting. We love 30/1. Touch test # 1.
We use extra soft waterbase inks b/c we love big prints. We remember when plastisol was huge, yuck. Touch test #2.
Great review, I think I will go put one on….

4I like the way they did the all-over printing for the girly micros than the large-area for the guys’. That said, it is a really good execution of the retro consumeristic style, which seems to be best when simple.

5It’s an awesome print! Perhaps it would stand out really well on a black tee with some kind of neon writing, like neon orange or magenta.
