2 Shirts & 2 Hoodies from Enclothe

newenclothe 480x187 2 Shirts & 2 Hoodies from Enclothe

You know what I first thought when I saw these new (and new options for old designs) from Enclothe? That guy is consistent. I’m sure that isn’t the most exciting way that you can describe someone’s work, but Enclothe never seem to put out a dud when it comes to their designs, I like everything in their store, and they aren’t all over the place with the style, so you know what you’re in for when something new is coming up.

One thing that I think is new to the Enclothe range is the use of glow-in-the-dark ink, which is used to great effect on the Ragnarok zipper hoodie. I think my favourite of the four is the Eternal Embrace hoodie, because the whole point of that design is that these two people were locked in that embrace for 5,000 years after their burial in Italy, and every time you unzip the hoodie to tear them apart, genius!

There’s a few detailed views after the break in the gallery for those that want a closer look at the artwork.

The IT Crowd S3E5 T-shirt Roundup

filthypanda 480x271 The IT Crowd S3E5 T shirt Roundup

The last two IT Crowd posts of this current series are a bit late because of the Christmas break, and because I didn’t actually expect C4 to broadcast new episodes during the festive season, presuming that they’d have “Top 100 Christmas Moments” or something like that running in the 9pm Friday slot. Unlike my poor show for tee coverage on the 4th episode of this series (which has now had the blanks filled in by readers – love you guys!), I’ve managed to find all of them this time around… huzzah!

The tee at the top of this post is called Filthy Panda and is available from Genki Gear for £15 (mens, womens), or you can get the size XL at Play.com for £10 with free delivery.

The second tee of the week was from someone you see fairly regularly on HYA, Amorphia Apparel. The t-shirt is obviously a reference to the Alien franchise, and can be yours for the low price of $12.49 if you visit this link.

The last tee that Roy wore in episode five was pretty easy to find to be honest, all I needed to do was Google “Laugh this off twinkletoes” and I found out that this tee was related to a comic produced by 2000AD. Finding somewhere that had the design on sale was rather more troublesome. It isn’t available at Amazon, Play, or a number of other smaller retailers, and it is only available in size small in the official 2000AD shop. I guess it’s entirely possible that they’ll reprint the twinkletoes tee after the exposure it has been given by the show, but I’m afraid that unless you’re a small guy, you’re out of luck.

“Wheeevolution” by I’m A Hot Tee

jetpack large web 480x452 Wheeevolution by Im A Hot Tee

I think it might be time I wrote a massive list up of evolution tees, there’s hundreds of them out there but, naturally, I would select the best designs for such a list…

It’s funny that jetpacks were once seen as an aim for technological innovation, much like the flying car, but what did people really think we were going to do with them? Can you really imagine a situation where lots of people whizzing around in the sky would be a good idea?

For an unknown about of time (perhaps a week) you can get 10% off the tee using the Rocketeer inspired coupon code of Secord.

Lightning and shields and stuff, an all over from Atticus at hoodiepeople.com

 Lightning and shields and stuff, an all over from Atticus at hoodiepeople.com

I know that this hoodie is a bit simple, and Atticus may be a bit mainstream/emo for you, but I think that the subdued pattern is really nice, it would work well contrasted with a bright t-shirt. I usually find myself shying away from all over print hoodies because they’re usually a bit loud, and as we all know, I don’t like to court attention with what I wear.

“blërg” by Vig Tees

blerg3 480x332 blërg by Vig Tees

Apparently this tee is some kind of a reference to the fantastically funny 30 Rock, but I couldn’t place it at all, so I did a bit of hunting around (we all know what that means) and apparently blërg was uttered by Ms. Liz Lemon as a way of expressing:

The sound of many negative emotions in one word.

I think she might be right, it’s a word that you can say without even trying when you simply don’t have the energy to be annoyed anymore.
