No More Crowdsourced Tees Please by getslapt

22.07.2009

Perhaps if they’d crowdsourced the design of this tee someone would have noticed that they only have a single quotation mark for the quote, or perhaps that omission was on purpose. Damn, I had a really snarky one-liner right there about this tee, and now I’ve over thought it and removed any element of ‘oh, [...]

I wonder if Yes No Maybe are allowing themselves to get excited about this site?

22.07.2009

Over the past few years the iconic “Keep Calm And Carry On” design has made an extremely successful transition from cool war-time poster to cool irony-time t-shirt, inspiring many parodies and more than a few copycats. Now I’m not a fancy big city lawyer, so I don’t know a thing about copyright, but I’m fairly [...]

Wood by Violent Elegance with €3 per tee going to Greenpeace

22.07.2009

Whenever I see something like this tee and I know that a portion of the sales goes to a charity, I always think “why wouldn’t I just give money to the charity directly?” But I shouldn’t think that, because shamefully, I don’t give to charity as often as I feel I should, so if me [...]

Ghost in the Dark by Chow Hon Lam for Threadless

21.07.2009

I always have such high hopes for glow-in-the-dark prints, I want to like them a lot, but in reality they never quite match up to my expectations. The glow is never bright enough for me to be happy, and if it doesn’t glow enough, then what’s the point? I could be wrong about Threadless‘ glow-in-the-dark [...]

Watch the Skies by stuartwitts @ MySoti

21.07.2009

Presuming that I’m actually right about the subject of this tee (Close Encounters of the Third Kind, right?) then I love the subtlety of this tee. Costiness=$17.69 Available from MySoti

Batman Costume Hoodie from NerdyShirts

21.07.2009

Okay, so this clearly isn’t as badass as anything from The Dark Knight, but I think that when you’re wearing a novelty/costume hoodie that you need it to be more than a little bit tongue in cheek, otherwise it’s just not going to work. The fact that this hoodie comes with a cape is pretty [...]

Mad Chop Barbershop by Straw Castle

21.07.2009

Something about the font used on this tee doesn’t sit quite right with me, I think it might look a little bit too modern for the style that they’re creating with the image, but that doesn’t detract too much from what is otherwise a rather excellent design with a really appropriate colourway. Costiness=$17.99 Available from [...]

Shock horror! It’s new stuff from Dance Party Massacre!

21.07.2009

I like dance Party Massacre, they don’t seem to feel the need to be constrained to one particular style, but they do keep on topic, which allows them to be creative but also leaves me in the comfort that their name actually means something, because aside from being a catchy title for a B-Movie, when [...]

‘Against the Waves’ by cmatos for Springleap

21.07.2009

Even though the design isn’t entirely related to it (thought there is more than a passing resemblance), I instantly liked this design because of the use of Hokusai as the background to the promo pics. That said, it is a good design in it’s own right, I really like that way that the wave almost [...]

There’s a sale on at Scribtee too!

21.07.2009

Okay, bored of sales now. Still, tees are on sale from £7 (or whatever that is in your currency, Scribtee are a German company) ain’t to be sniffed at. Not everything is one sale, it’s the older stock, but those designs are good so it’s hardly an issue. Scribtee

20.07.2009

sales, sales, sales, that’s all I’ve been seeing today, there must be something in the air. Design By Humans have gotten in on the act in a big way with tees as low as $5, and that isn’t a gimmicky $5, there are actually tees there that you’d want to buy, and in more than [...]

Capcom’s totally badass zombie tee

20.07.2009

You’ve probably seen this on a zillion other blogs before this one, but I was a tad busy last week going overboard on the Star Wars tees (btw, there will be no more 202 item lists, it’s just too much), which is why it had to wait until now. Of course, you’d never catch me [...]

202 Star Wars T-Shirts [Lists]

Thumbnail image for 202 Star Wars T-Shirts [Lists]

I think that you’d be pretty hard pressed to find a series of movies that have gained as much of a following as Star Wars, and as you’d expect that has resulted in a huge amount of t-shirts being produced that reference the films in one way or another. So, being HYA, I thought that [...]

Beautiful/Decay’s Tee of the Month: ‘Yoga’

16.07.2009

In their words: July’s shirt of the month is an ultra-limited edition shirt with a one-of-a-kind color way & printing process we are calling “B/D Yoga Vintage.” With only 25 units ever made, this shirt will definitely sell out quickly! The shirt image of a playfully levitating yogi has been printed without a white base [...]

Grey Totem Print Spring Hoodie by Coma & Cotton

16.07.2009

I’ve re-written this post a few times, but I don’t really know what to say about this hoodie, I like it, that much I know, but I can’t find adequate words. I can tell you that it is printed on Alternative Apparel’s eco-earth line, and is a recycled poly and cotton blend… which is nice, [...]

Kind Of A Big Deal by aTYPICAL

16.07.2009

I get the feeling that I’d be a lot more impressed with this tee without the image of the Notorious BIG (who I recognised, so maybe I’m not as hip hop blind as I thought), but I still like what they’ve done with the text. Costiness=$25 Available from aTYPICAL
