Run DC, another Barack Obama tee

by Andy on January 23, 2009

stackt rundc 480x331 Run DC, another Barack Obama tee

We’re probably coming to the end of Obama tee mania, but I think that this shirt is one of the cooler ones that I’ve seen over the last few weeks, apparently it was a giveaway at the 2008 BET Awards and got a load of buzz from that so it is now being sold in limited quanitities. How limited is anyone’s guess, but if you’ve been holding out for an Obama tee, this one would look better in your wardrobe than most of the others out there.

Wooshka’s Australia Day Sale

by Andy on January 23, 2009

ozdaysale 480x144 Wooshkas Australia Day Sale

Want £10 tees and free worldwide shipping from Wooshka? Go to their site now and buy a tee, it’s as simple as that.

They didn’t make it particularly clear in the e-mail, but I would presume that this sale is going on until January 26th, because that’s when Australia Day occurs. Australia Day celebrates when the first British fleet first visited Australia in 1787, and promptly proclaimed the land as theirs, because that’s what we Brits used to do, in fact, when I move to Philadelphia I’m intending to annex my rented apartment from the USA, we did it in the 18th century, I don’t know why I can’t do it now!

less image 480x360 Glennz is right, penguins do need to loosen up a bit

I haven’t written about a Glennz tee for a while, possibly because he might not have been cranking out the designs at his usual feverish rate, but this illustration sure did tickle my funny bone.

Costiness=$19.95 Buy ‘Less Formal’ at Glennz

Banana Split by Huebucket

banana 480x240 Banana Split by Huebucket

I spotted this tee on I Love Tee Design and just had to click to click through, I loved the style of the image, it’s the kind of thing I’d happily put aside the various prints and posters that adorn the walls of my office/living room, so hopefully Huebucket (that name makes me uncomfortable and I don’t know why) will move into doing prints as well as tees and totes. I’ve made it clear in the past that I don’t really know that muxh about art, but would I be right in thinking that this was a typically Japanese style? And that in most traditional Japanese the hero doesn’t often lay waste to an anthropomorphic banana? That’s the irrerevent take on things that has really endeared me to Huebucket and I hope to see more from them in the future.

103 1 480x480 Now I Realize by Marthuba [Rumplo Rocks]

I can’t decide if this one is emo or not, I guess it depends on the way that you take it, for all we know it might have ‘donuts!’ written on the back… though judging by the rest of the Marthuba site, I think it’s a safe bet that they’re on the more philosophical side of things.

Costiness= 59 Swiss Francs ($51, eek, didn’t realise until I ran it through a converter) Buy it at Marthuba [Rumplo Link]

Raincloud Hoodie by Tee and Toast

raincloudhoody Raincloud Hoodie by Tee and Toast

I was at the hairdressers yesterday getting my hair cut (why else would I be there?) and we were discussing her 5 week trip to Australia (and Hong Kong, I gave her some pointers), and she said that whilst she’s away she hopes that it rains every day here in the Lake District and she returns to dreary England with a glowing tan. If you know anything about the Lake District, that could very well happen, it often feels as if we don’t have different seasons, just varying amounts of rain, which is why this hoodie from Tee and Toast really resonated with me.

The vintage and hand distressed look on the hoodie looks pretty cool too.

Shinobi Spirit – I like ‘em!

January 23, 2009

I got an e-mail about a week ago from someone called Garret that said: I ran across this site, thought it might be of interest to you: www.shinobispirit.com. And you know what, Garret was right, it was of interest to me, because Shinobi Spirit have some pretty cool designs. I think they’re a Spanish brand, [...]
