A blog about hoodies & t-shirts

What’s new at Seibei?


The ever-popular David from Seibei has just dropped a couple of new designs and a fresh colourway of a creepy old design that you might want to fix your peepers on. I’m not all that hot on “…The Amulet!!!” because whilst I will wear a lot of things, a topless dude wearing hot pants whilst riding a blue horse/donkey/”bi-corn” isn’t one of them. Junior Birdman looks pretty freakin’ sweet though. Oh, and Seibei sells a few kids tees now, too.

Johnny Cupcakes has dropped a few new designs, and also revamped his site to make it look even more bakery-esque than it was before.

Muro by Masterpiece at Mad Hectic


I’m afraid that I can’t be 100% sure whether any of the words in that title are accurate, which is a pity, but the site is a little confusing as to which is the brand, and which is the shop, or even if those two are the same thing.

Whatever they’re called, I like them. Obviously these are some fairly subtle hoodies, but the red hood lining and the contrasting hood drawstrings are really nice touches.

4108-0 Umbrella by Support Shirts [Rumplo Rocks]

The pic doesn’t make it particularly obvious, but there are lots of little blue drops of rain printed over the body of the tee, which is fairly clever. I really like the style in which the umbrella-toting woman is drawn, it reminds me of Kozyndan for some reason despite not using a similar style, maybe its because of the colour palette.

geoff-mcfetridge-undftd-las-vegas-01-480x335 Geoff McFetridge & UNDFTD want you to rock the vote

I’m afraid that I dropped the ball a bit with this one, although since it only seemed to become news on the day of the event then I blame the rest of the clothing blog world for not picking up on this earlier, shame on you, internet!

Here’s what went down, last Saturday, on the last day for voter registration in Nevada, UNDFTD held an in-store voter registration session to try and encourage as many people as possible to get politically engaged. All of the people that registered in the UNDFTD store were given the tee shown above (by t-shirt design God Geoff McFetridge) as a gift. I don’t know how I feel about people essentially being bribed to register to vote (although I guess that just registering doesn’t actually mean that these people will actually cast a ballot), but I do have to applaud UNDFTD for doing their bit and getting involved with the election.

What’s new at Cotton Factory


All that up there is what’s new at Cotton Factory, quite a few fun and funny tees, with subjects running from Lincoln, Planet of the Apes, and Pee Wee Herman to what I would consider as more typical Cotton Factory fare in the from of a tee with a picture of a Yugo car on it and the slogan “Yugo Girl” written underneath, now that’s punnery!

People ask me who my favourite brand is all the time, and I never like to answer them since I’d like to think I have a bit of journalistic integrity (please send all samples to…), and since my moods swing more than a pregnant woman I go on and off certain styles and brands pretty frequently, so there’s no real one answer, but I have to say the Graniph are consistently in my top 5 tee brands, not that I actually keep such a list.

I’m a pretty big fan of Extraverage too, so I guess that this collaboration/commission worked out pretty well for me!

I managed to find both the tees in the Graniph store (huzzah!) for the price of 2,100 yen a piece. Here’s the pink one, here’s the grey one.
