Monstar Clothing’s $8.88 sale

by Andy on August 26, 2008


I think this sale has been going on for quite a long time, presumably since 08/08/08, but I kept forgetting to post it, so here ya go!

232item noage w String Break by Art in the No Age of Mechanical Reproduction

Yes, this tee is by Art in the Age of Reproduction, and no, I haven’t made an error in the title, although I do think that if Art in the Age and No Age team up for a collaboration that that should have dropped the ‘the’ from the title. “Art in No Age of Mechanical Reproduction,” see? Much cleaner!

I’ve never actually heard of No Age, an experimental rock/pop punk/noisepop/powerpop/shoegaze (<-- whaa??!!)/what do genre labels even mean anymore... band from Los Angeles before I found out about this tee collaboration, but I think I stopped knowing what was cool in the music world a long time ago when I unsubscribed from Stereogum and decided that I quite liked ‘Girlfriend’ by Avril Lavigne.

The tee itself has a kinda grimy punk quality to it. At first I didn’t actually find it all that appealing, and as a tee on its own it hasn’t really grown on me, but I reckon that if it were being worn by someone with a bit of a rocker look that it would be pretty badass.

FFee Clothing have released eight new designs, shown above in the gallery, and redesigned their website, not shown above, but it does look really cool, they’ve got lots of hand-drawn text and illustrations mixed with photos, and… and… well, just go take a look yourself, its a treat for your eyes.

Their new packaging looks pretty gorgeous, so if you weren’t quite sure whether to make a purchase then that might be the tipping point for you.

Allmightys are rapidly turning into my favourite European design competition, they’ve got the quality, the community, the artists, and I just get a generally good feeling about them. Their latest themed competition was based around patterns. As you can probably tell from the gallery above, the winners were a pretty diverse bunch, branching off from what I’d consider a pattern by a few degrees, but still creating clever designs that are undeniably patterns. My pick ‘o the bunch is actually the Gold Prize winner of the contest, Slum, a great colourway and beautifully illustrated, bravo, darruda!
