Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It by Local Celebrity

12.06.2009

Can you imagine if I wore this? The levels of irony would be so dangerously high that if I started listening to Journey at the same time I’m pretty sure the world would kerplode. Costiness=$28 ($22 if you join the A-List) Buy it at Local Celebrity

This dude is a Tee Maniac

12.06.2009

Congrats to Alex Vandenberg who put together the above gif showing off his extensive collection of Threadless tees to win T-shirt Magazine’s Tee Maniacs comeptition. I wouldn’t usually post about someone winning a competition on another site, but come on, how cool is that gif!

Curious Tales make Curious T-shirts (and give HYAers a 25% off coupon code)

12.06.2009

In their own words: The label is called Curious Tales and it combines my love of storytelling, fashion and the environment. (I also do upcycled clothes and they were the inspiration for the stories, I started wondering about who had worn the clothes before and started writing about them!) All the tees feature scribbly drawings [...]

Turn an old tee into a cool scarf/necklace [DIY]

12.06.2009

This cool looking scarf/necklace was featured in Instructable’s weekly newsletter, and I thought it looks no nice (and presumably easy though I haven’t actually looked at the tutorial properly yet) that I’d share it with you, so if you were wondering “what should I do with this old t-shirt?” wonder no more!

Bloc28 x Disney at Urban Retro, because apparently Mickey Mouse is cool

12.06.2009

One of the things I noticed on my two trips to Asia in ’07 and ’08 (cripes, I might not make it to Asia this year) is that big brands there like to collaborate with smaller brands, especially in the clothing world. I can understand why Louis Vuitton want to collaborate with Murakami, but why [...]

Buy One Get One Free at Hugsmugglers for the rest of June

11.06.2009

I’d actually forgotten how many cool designs Hugsmugglers had, so get your ass over to their Merchline store and check ‘em out while they’re cheap.

Akomplice’s Summer Collection

11.06.2009

After last week’s teaser, here’s a closer look: THE LIFE COLLECTION from Akomplice really holds true to it’s title. The Summer range has pieces for all walks of life; from the Jaquard Sweater to the Flip Shorts, mixing a prestigious cut with a relaxed style. The tees are just as worldly. With a collaboration between [...]

Get up to 70% off at 80′s Purple Half Yearly Sale

11.06.2009

It may surprise you to hear this, but I’m actually a bit of a fan of 80′s Purple, they’re constantly releasing new stuff, the brands they stock are impressive, and they have a tendency to put a lot of it on sale. They say this is a half-yearly sale, so I would assume that it [...]

Teecycle takes the Pepsi Challenge

11.06.2009

Okay, not that Pepsi Challenge (that post would indicate a slow news day), but rather PepsiCo’s “What’s Your Pitch?” contest. Teecycle, for those of you that are unaware, is a site that sells cool second-hand tees, and gives $1 from each sale to the River Revitalization Foundation, a Milwaukee based organisation, and the tees are [...]

10% off at Glarkware for the guys, and Gossip Girl gets the &&& treatment

11.06.2009

Glarkware released a coupon code last week that will give you 10% off their men’s clothing, I wish I could give it to the ladies as well, if you’ll pardon the expression (that I could obviously just re-write, but it made me laugh), the code is JUNE19. When do you think that code is valid [...]

Up to 50% off all tees and long-sleeves at Paper Root

11.06.2009

There’s not really much more that I can add after a title as informative as that one, except to say that Paper Root Clothing produce some great designs, and this is one of my favourite tees in my collection, so they’re well worth a look. Paper Root Clothing

Everybody Loves My Hair by Pitch @ MySoti

11.06.2009

I was looking at this tee and thinking, “y’know, I’m sure I’ve written about this tee before.” And I was right, but this version is clearly an improvement upon the last attempt. Curiously, much like the previous post, this was written around the time of me having a hair cut (two days ago in this [...]

Wrongwroks Summer Release (with requisite hot model in photos)

10.06.2009

I can’t believe I managed to go more than a week since getting back blogging without mentioning Wrongwroks! They seem to release something every week, but I get the feeling that this Summer release is much bigger than usual, with a load of cool hoodies, hats, and tees. There’s also a new iPhone skin in [...]

“Music Mountain” by Lyndsey Lesh for Beautiful/Decay

10.06.2009

Beautiful/Decay are known for getting some ‘name’ designers to create tees for them, but this release is actually from one of their interns, the quite clearly really rather talented Lyndsey Lesh. I didn’t realise that B/D has a shirt of the month, but this is their June offering, meaning that it is part of a [...]

Social Media Venn Diagram by Despair, Inc.

10.06.2009

Let’s be clear, I like Facebook (it kept me in touch with my friends whilst I was in America), and I like Twitter (even if I am a bit guilty of posting about my lunches more often than I should), though I’m done with MySpace, but they can be a little creepy. Actually, it isn’t [...]

Bye Bye Love by Love Eneroth [Rumplo Rocks]

10.06.2009

I always really liked the idea of Polaroid cameras, something that I may have mentioned before, the concept of being able to hold something tangible in your hands straight after taking a photo is a bit more exciting than taking a picture and then immediately looking at an LCD screen. Still, given the option of [...]

Are you the T-Shirt Day Contest winner?

09.06.2009

Thanks to all the people that entered the competition, I was worried that loads of you would guess the correct answer and I’d have to think up a tie-breaker question, but fortunately only one person guessed the correct amount. You’ll have to watch the video (which includes what I believe is the first time you [...]

Ucon’s Summer 09 ‘Architecture’ Collection

09.06.2009

Ucon have pretty much nailed simple, minimal, clothing with a distinct European look, which should come as no surprise as they are German (y’know, in Europe). The problem with simple clothing like this? There isn’t all that much you can say about it. Looks good though! And yes, that is a hoodie being featured in [...]

Bean Dip Clothing’s Summer Collection

08.06.2009

That Abraham Lincoln tee on the upper right? I want it. Now. There’s a load more designs and colourways (and hats!) available on the Bean Dip site, but I thought that the above images would be enough to whet your whistles… and that was the image they put into their e-mail and I’m too lazy [...]
