lacarrera Hasta La Muerte by La Carrera @ Karmaloop

Very interesting graphic, kind of reminds me of a Banksy-esque stencil, except without the obvious political commentary. Blurb!

‘If you’re not first, you might as well be dead! On the front left is La Carrera logo. On the back is a large printing of three cyclists, with the two lagging behind as skeletons. “Hasta La Muerte!” or in other words, “Until Death!”‘

‘Starchild’ at SaltWaterMonkey

 Starchild at SaltWaterMonkey

SaltWaterMonkey were a brand that I was hoping to mention before I went to Amsterdam, since they’re a Dutch label and I thought it would have been a convenient tie-in, but I guess it doesn’t matter when these brands get shown off as long as they get the attention they deserve eventually.

With a few of their designs, I would have the criticism that the prints are a bit on the small side compared to the tees, but this ‘Starchild’ tee doesn’t suffer from that problem. Using a single colour for the print works really well and sets the mood of the piece, and what a beautiful piece it is, I wouldn’t know whether to wear it or frame it if it were to find its way to HYA HQ (coughcough)!

Luckily for us, like everyone I met in Amsterdam, these guys do sprekt der engels (that could be some waaaay wrong Dutch), and have an English site to compliment their Dutch one.

Threadless Sale: What did you get?

mypethuman Threadless Sale: What did you get?

Well, I just put my order in, a ‘Communist Party‘ tee for my brother, and a ‘My Pet Humanhoodie for me. I don’t really know how well ‘My Pet Human’ will work as a hoodie (especially as the print is white on creme), but I do love the image, and I think its about time I got a Threadless hoodie, even though nothing about it is going to surprise me; the stock hoodie is American Apparel, and I’m already well aware of their print quality. The checkout process took a really long time, which is a bit annoying, but hey, I can hardly complain when my order was covered by street team points, thanks a lot guys!

I’ve also noticed that my order number is around 930,000 I wonder if they’re going to celebrate their millionth order is some way?

So, what did you pick up?
