Afri-tastic!
They say in the product description that this tee is controversial, but I genuinely can’t think of any way that people could be offended by it, would anyone care to enlighten me?

Afri-tastic!
Image comes from an early 20th century French book of photographs from the J.J. Audubon Society depicting the wing of a Palm Crow, an endangered species of Crow native to Haiti (assumed origin of publication) and the Dominican Republic.

This is, that’s what. Looks good, and typically Yackfousian, fans of the brand should have nothing to complain about, those horizontal line tees aren’t doing much for me though.

I think it’s fair to say that this is one of the greatest product pictures ever to grace the pages of HYA!
The t-shirt probably won’t make a lot of sense to non-Americans (and non-Mexicans), but the design is a parody of the logo for a beer called Dos Equis, which has gained popularity (or at least is now recognised, I’m not sure if people actually drink it) due to an TV ad featuring “the most interesting man in the world.” It’s a good ad, and whilst beer is nice, it’s clearly no bacon, so Rizzo Tees have probably improved on the original.
Stay hungry… my friends.

Storenvy have a good rep for printing tees within the indie community, by which I mean that people on Emptees rarely bitch about them, and from what I can tell their storefront hosting service is also held in high regard. A couple of days ago they released a new version of their site which aims to help those stores owners make more sales, and help make it easier for t-shirt buyers to find shirts across their network of stores. To put it basically, you can search what they sell, it’s that simple, I’d add more words to this sentence but they’d be superfluous.
Search isn’t the only new feature to be included in the new Storenvy site, they’ve also introduced a concept called ‘Markets‘ which groups together stores that have something in common (such as fine art, eco-friendly, or urban wear), it’s an idea I like and thin that as it evolves it would work well for people trying to discover new companies in the same vein as ones that they already like. The forum is likely to be a useful hub for store owners, though as you would imagine so soon after launch things are still a bit quiet around there.
In the past if someone asked me about a third-party storefront to run their brand from I would have immediately said Big Cartel, but Storenvy could be an option worth looking at for a lot of budding tee-preneurs.
