Just a quick one before the weekend lands upon us:
Karmaloop TV: Karmaloop launched a web TV station a couple of days ago, looks pretty cool, and they’ve got some pretty big names in their launch content. As I’ve mentioned previously, my soundcard is dead so I can’t really comment on the content, but it looks good.
Shirt City: They’ve given their front page a bit of a spruce up, and they’re giving a €5 off voucher to people making their first purchase when you signup through the right link on the front page (which is pretty obvious to find). They’ve also launched a Christmas mini-site with lots of festive extras, check it out here.
XLarge: Use the coupon code xmascheer to get 20% off your order until December 31st of this year.
Slowshirts nail it once again with this car+wings=weird but cool design.
When I saw this just as a design, I thought it was far more suited to a tee rather than a hoodie, as some designs are, but then I saw the picture above and my feelings changed, and the ‘neon jade’ print works really well on the hoodie. So if you’re a fan of the 1971 Honda AN600 (and who isn’t?) then this may well just be the hoodie for you.

Well, after a week in which there’s been massive amounts of rioting and violence in France, a lot of which has been described as more intense and well organised than the rioting of a couple of years ago, its only natural that I post a French-language tee that has a balaclava-clad person on it requesting that the less-than-savoury elements of French society ‘unite’. That’s why they call me a class act!
Pretty much a standard white tee otherwise, probably not a good idea to wear this if you’re actually planning or are involved in subversive activities, I don’t think that the hidden-in-plain-sight theory works in that kind of situation.

In no particular order, there are the 3 winners in the illustration contest, not half bad, eh?
Congratulations to Ric, Eugene, and Claudette (their entries running from top to bottom, respectively) for creating some excellent illustrations and winning a tee from Mimoco‘s apparel line, they’ll be in the post to you very soon. Well done guys, thanks a lot for taking part!
Check out the rest of the entrants over at this special set on Flickr.
Keep an eye out for future competitions on HYA*, and if you own a tee store and would be interested in working together on a competition, get in touch and we’ll see what we can do.

Wow, that is one depressing title for a t-shirt, just once couldn’t they do something about kittens and puppies playing together in a field?
Whilst we’re feeling down over the name, we might as well be brought down by the blurb as well:
While we try to encourage others to have a positive attitude and be proactive in making this world a better place, some of us cannot help letting our minds and hearts become weary and overwhelmed with the ugly things in this world. Terrorism, homicide, betrayal… even just taking advantage of one another… it’s enough to disgust us.
All joking aside, this is a great design, I really love the colourway and placement.
