droogkloot by Super Vulgar Deluxe

16.07.2009

I looked up the word droogkloot, I already knew it was Dutch because of the word ‘droog’, which is a gallery in Amsterdam/Tokyo/New York (I visited the New York one of four separate occasions and it was only open once, so check their opening times if you’re planning a visit), but ‘kloot’ was aliean too [...]

Hello, Hej, Bonjour… by Buddy Carr Skateboards

16.07.2009

The skateboard version of this (it has the same design running along the underside of the deck, and even on the wheels!) is probably meant to be the main draw, but this is Hide Your Arms (a name which doesn’t make quite as much sense as it used to), not Hide Part of Your Deck [...]

LiNK – Liberty in North Korea

15.07.2009

I like to play a little game when I’m poking around in my Google Analytics to see which Axis of Evil countries I’ve had visits from, and I’ve ‘collected’ almost all of them, but North Korea is noticeably absent, probably because the internet doesn’t really exist in that country, so I was largely resigned to [...]

King of Kings by Paid In Full

15.07.2009

I’m always a bit on the fence when it comes to overtly religious t-shirt companies (of any faith), because it’s a valid subject area to make tees about, but at the same time, I am in no way religious and actively don’t believe a lot of the things that I see coming up on Christian [...]

12 new designs and a 20% off coupon code from Ten Bills

15.07.2009

The picture above doesn’t represent all the new stuff, which you probably worked out since there’s 15 shirts there and not 12 designs, but I’ve checked them out and there’s good news – they don’t suck. To thank you for pre-ordering, and to start this first one off, we are offering 20% off your entire [...]

Petoria + Joehio 4 Ever by Unreal Cotton

15.07.2009

Unreal Cotton are a company that create tees based upon imaginary/fictional places in TV and movies, such as Springfield in the Simpsons and Quahog in Family guy. As a concept, I love it, going into their universe and treating it as realiyu is a better way to reach out to fans of the show than [...]

Buy a Kozyndan tee, get some free music

15.07.2009

I get the feeling that it’s meant to be an even split between the music and the tee, but when Kozyndan are part of the equation then everything else is just filler for me… not to be disparaging of all the other people involved, of course. Friends of Friends makes a bold entry into the [...]

99 Problems by Reece Ward at redbubble

15.07.2009

I don’t really listen to a lot of hip hop, and when I do it’s usually a unusual remix that I’ve stumbled upon on Hype Machine, but even I have been known to blast out 99 Problems (especially the ’99 Anthems’ Jaydiohead remix) when the moment strikes me. I get the feeling that I may [...]

Owl by Joey Irizarry for randr

15.07.2009

You know when you look at modern art and think “I could do that,” you could, but you didn’t. When I first looked at this tee I thought “I could do that,” but then I realise that I’m about as good at drawing as a toddler, and that this probably took a lot longer to [...]

Jimiyo interviews a.mar.illo for DesignByHumans

14.07.2009

a.marill.o (aka Sven Palmovski, the 61st human on DBH) is one of my favorite t-shirt designers, so it’s hardly surprising that I enjoyed this interview with him conducted by jimiyo, maybe you will too.

The Hangover by NerdyShirts

14.07.2009

I know I’m pretty late posting this, but I think it’s a tee that’s funny whether you’ve seen the movie or not, so it’s topicality isn’t necessarily that important in this instance. For the record, I really enjoyed the film, it didn’t really raise a lot of belly laughs with me, but there were a [...]

Dinosaur-Human Coexistence by Teach The Controversy

14.07.2009

‘Facts’ and ‘evidence’ be damned, humans and dinosaurs lived on Earth together, and in harmony no less (except for the T-Rex, he was always pissed off because he had all those teeth and no toothbrush). Costiness= From $15.99 Available in multiple colourways from Teach the Controversy (also available without the text)

Warrior Girl t-shirt by Fighting is Your Friend

14.07.2009

Fighting Is Your Friend aren’t actually a clothing brand, they are a martial arts/ass kickery site/forum, but their tees are a cut above the regular “hey, we have a website, we might as well sell tees on the side” mediocrity that I see all too often, and all of their tees are printed on American [...]

Dr. Strangelove/Love Lockdown by Gommi Arcade

14.07.2009

Just as I started to write this post a cover of Kanye’s ‘Love Lockdown’ started playing, serendipilicious! This tee reminds me quite a lot of the Chop Shop ‘we’ series, y’know, lots of famous characters silhouetted into a shape. I’m not saying this is a rip, just something I noticed. I like their use of [...]

Vikiger by Skummie

14.07.2009

This tee isn’t in a style that I find particularly enjoyable (then again, I’m wearing this right now, so what do I know), but I can recognise that a lot of work has gone into this, so kudos Skummie! Costiness=$20 Available (currently on pre-sale) from Skummie

$10 sale at Faveur Clothing

13.07.2009

It’s been a while since I last mentioned Faveur Clothing, but they didn’t suck then, and they still don’t now, and at $10 a pop you’ll probably agree with me.

Mona Lisa Simmons by Fifty Seven Thirty Three

13.07.2009

Expect to see more of Fifty Seven Thirty Three, you want to know why? Because their tees look awesome (they aren’t the cheapest out there, mind you). This tee isn’t actually particularly representative of their style, they aren’t exactly a laffer of a brand, but this design certainly did raise a smile. Oh, it would [...]
