Last time that Foe Paws were featured on Hide Your Arms was with their nerd-tastic geek crest design (excluding when I announced these two designs), so I guess that its fair to say that they’ve taken a slight turn in terms of the direction of their look. I look at these two designs and I can think of only one word: badass. Right?

When I first saw these tees, I didn’t really like the style that much. They reminded me of those crappy, cheap, photo-style shirts that middle-aged people who like cats too much wear, you know what I mean? After I gave them a proper look though, I started to appreciate the amount of work that must have gone into these two designs, and I bet that they’d work really well paired up with a blazer or something fairly muted. The colourways are paired up nicely too.

I know what you’re thinking, there is no way in hell that you can print this design well. Prepare to be surprised, because it’s actually pretty impressive, I assume it uses DTG (direct to garment) printing, but I would be very happy to be proved wrong by someone more in the know than I am*. The blending of the colours, especially on the wolf shirt, really is quite something to behold (yes, behold!). The t-shirt itself.is American Apparel stock, so you know what you’re getting there, and the printed tag on the inside is a nice touch as well.

* I have been proved wrong, Brian from Foe Paws informs us in the comments that it is in fact a good ‘ole screenprint.
