Review: Yay Serotonin! by ClothMoth

November 22, 2007

Usually, when I get sent a tee, I don’t expect to have to study chemistry to understand the joke. I kinda got it, but I thought I’d better take a better look to make sure I was on track (if you call Wikipedia ‘taking a better look at it’). In the central nervous system, serotonin [...]

Wire Birds by No Star Clothing

November 21, 2007

I’m starting to think that the rather niche subject of ‘birds sitting on telephone/power lines’ might need to be the subject of a HYA* list, not because I think they’re particularly cool, just because there’s so many of them out there. This one from No Star is a good example, and unlike most of the [...]

Turtlehead: We’ve got news

November 20, 2007

I don’t particularly know why, but the way this is written makes me think of Keith from Turtlehead dressed as a circus ringmaster trying to entice into a carnival… I spend a lot of time daydreaming… We’ve redesigned the site. Our new t-shirts from Laurina Paperina are on our interweb. She’s a simply amazing artist [...]

How Much Did You Pay For The_Radiohead Album? by Tasty Tees

November 20, 2007

Me? Nothing. Didn’t pay for it. Didn’t download it either. How much do you pay for this t-shirt? Whatever you want. Yup, whatever you want. A great idea from the Tasty Tees crew, although perhaps a slightly less viable business strategy than the Radiohead guys since tees cost rather more than bandwidth. Orders for this [...]

Feelin’ chilly? Yeah, it really is getting that way. Since this is a military style coat, lets rock some technical blurbage, since that just feels right!

HYA* x Mimoco Illustration Contest: Remember, the deadline for submissions is November 21st, just 2 days away! Threadless Holiday sale: $10 tees, you know the deal. There’s also a video to go with the sale that looks slightly funny that I’ve embedded below, but I can’t listen to it because my soundcard is still busted. [...]

Fast Times At Ridgemont High Synopsis by 2k @ Giant Robot

November 19, 2007

Happy Asian girl is back! Does anyone else think that it’s odd that I keep posting tees from Giant Robot, who I think of more as a magazine and book company? And to add to that, I first saw this line of movie synopsis tees by 2k at a bookshop in the UK, well, I [...]

‘The Clover’ by Primp @ Karmaloop

November 19, 2007

I can’t believe I’m actually looking at a picture of Britney Spears (from this year) and saying “hey, that looks good.” Of course, you haven’t stumbled upon some lame-o celeb gossip blog, this is HYA* dammit and I’m only looking at one thing. The hoodie. It’s a pretty cool hoodie, nice colourway, an all-over print [...]

Tush Cardigan Hoodie by Franco Shade @ 80s Purple

November 16, 2007

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an attempt at a hoodie/cardigan before, and I think it actually works a lot better than I would have expected. The inner lining is a bit of a surprise considering that you usually think of a cardigan as a fairly understated garment. I’m not too sure what I think [...]

Wire & Twine/Woxy’s Top 100 Bands tee

November 16, 2007

1) I’ve never actually visited Woxy.com before. 2) I can’t find the top 100 list on their site (possibly not compiled yet), but I recognise about 4 bands on their weekly top 20 chart. 3) I have officially mailed back my cool-card for incineration. Whatever, just because I probably don’t know about any of the [...]

Review: ‘Cowboy Band’ by The Ryde

November 16, 2007

I’d never heard of a cowboy band before, I presumed that they were basically just a regular band, but back when people were cowboys, so pretty much every band would be a cowboy band. To my surprise, there does seem to be quite a few cowboy bands out there, such as the ‘Working Cowboy Band‘ [...]

Threadless: Buy their window art

November 15, 2007

Fancy having a piece of limited edition (limited to 1, I guess) that has hung in the window of the Threadless retail store? I kinda do. For those who are unaware, Threadless put up three new paintings by Joe Suta (their “in-house magical graffiti musician snowboarder extraordinaire”) in their window each week. The paintings are [...]

Mauve Online 15% off Coupon Code

November 15, 2007

Clearly making custom coupon codes for HYA is all the rage at the moment, since I got an e-mail from Mauve Online saying that they’ve made a coupon code of hideyourarms that will get you 15% off your entire order from their rather impressive selection of premium streetwear>. There’s a load of brands in there [...]

The Glow in the Dark tee by Rated Rookies @ Karmaloop

November 15, 2007

How could such an awesome tee get given such a lame name? Sad stuff. I really like it when designers take an element that can really be quite cheesy (as much as I love it, glow in the dark print can easily go very wrong), and by pointing out its inherent cheesiness actually make it [...]

8 Bit by Heavy Tees

November 14, 2007

Back in school a me and a friend used to play Tetris against each other on our original Game Boys using a link cable, and then a few days later there seemed to be quite a few people bringing in old Game Boys, and we basked in the glory of starting a trend for retro [...]
