Avril Lavigne wearing an ugly hoodie

Celebrity posts are few and far between on HYA at the moment, which I’m sure most of you find to be something of a blessing, but I quite like these posts because I can be rude without feeling too much guilt, since I doubt Avril (seen here about to attempt some kind of ‘bear attack’ [...]

HYA buttons go global: spotted on the North Face of the Eiger

Thumbnail image for HYA buttons go global: spotted on the North Face of the Eiger

A couple of my friends went to Swtizerland last week, we were hoping that they’d be able to do a (presumably hard nipple filled) photoshoot on top of a mountain in the snow wearing a HYA tee, but alas the tees did not arrive in time (they are in the UK though), so they had [...]

Death by Stealth from Zerobriant at Design By Humans

I feel as if I haven’t described a tee as being ‘badass’ for a while, especially as it is one of my favourite descriptive words for tees that are, well, badass, and don’t you find that Design By Humans are pretty good at printing this kind of tee? That said, that sword placement going onto [...]

Kopie Kopie Hoodie by TEAM BRÛLÉ BERLIN

It’s simple, but I think it works, though it’s hardly likely to have a slimming effect. They call it a ‘hooded dress’ on the product page, but it’s clearly a regular hoodie, so I think something has got lost in translation. Costiness=€69 Available from Shop Windoz

Delorean Time Machine Schematic by 80sTees

Thumbnail image for Delorean Time Machine Schematic by 80sTees

I know that this t-shirt comes from 80sTees and therefore isn’t ‘cool’, because really, who hasn’t heard of 80sTees? However, as a child of the 80s, I am always willing to overlook a few things if it allows me to get nostalgic about the movies I loved when I was young and not quite as [...]

The Elephant at the Porcelain by Ceka at A Better Tomorrow

I really like the use of the zip being used to split the two characters on this hoodie. Usually the zip just gets in the way of the design, so it’s good to see ABT using it to positive effect. Costiness=€38 Available from A Better Tomorrow

When Geek-ness goes retro by Riccardo Bucchioni for Threadless

Thumbnail image for When Geek-ness goes retro by Riccardo Bucchioni for Threadless

  Even though they’re very much different styles of design, I can’t help but think of the previous Threadless tee I posted (Geekology by Aaron Hogg) when I look at this supremely retro geeky tee. I’m digging the large print, especially as you need a large print to do a design like this justice to [...]

Ackbarography by Split Reason

Thumbnail image for Ackbarography by Split Reason

  Star Wars and typography combined in one shirt? Why, surely that’s the recipe for a tee-plosion of nerdy blog excitement? If this was an infomercial I’m sure I’d tell you about how buying this tee from Split Reason wouldn’t be a trap in some extremely convoluted way, but I’ll restrain myself this time around. [...]

New tees from Johnny Cupcakes

Thumbnail image for New tees from Johnny Cupcakes 18.01.2010

Is that tee with the peacock feather on it meant to be a parody/tribute/homage to Jimmy Eat World’s Chase the Light album, or is it just a cool design? Anyway, a solid release from the Johnny Cupcakes team.

Feed the Hungry (and Haiti) by Pyknic

18.01.2010

This is a great tee, and at the moment it’s even better because Pyknic are going to be giving away 75% of the purchase price ($20) to an un-named charity to help with earthquake relief in Haiti. Costiness=$20 Available from Pyknic

Love Nurse by Frgio Banjo for LaFraise

18.01.2010

I don’t know what nationality Frgio Banjo is, but as is often the case with tees from laFraise, the words used on this tee don’t seem to flow particularly naturally, though I think that in this case it actually makes the design a bit more endearing, as if it’s a foreign person really trying to [...]

Gun Girl by Upper Playground

Well, this certainly isn’t a provocative image now is it? Costiness=$24 Available from Upper Playground

Hi by Rinzen at Publik

18.01.2010

I think I might be going through something of a minimal phase at the moment, I keep finding great tees that are restrained graphically and I keep liking them a lot. This tee is no exception. Costiness=5565Yen (about $61) Available from Publik (in limited sizes from what I can tell)

Oxymoron: This is a Normal Watch

17.01.2010

I know it’s not going to be a particularly high quality watch, I wouldn’t swap it for the lovely Hugo Boss watch I got for my 21st birthday, for example, but if you want a fun accessory (and us guys don’t get to accessorise very often) then you could do a lot worse than this [...]

I really like the colour contrasts on this hoodie, and the love heart patterned hood lining is the icing on the (cup)cake. Costiness=$48 Available from Loyal Army

A Ferrari Made out of T-Shirts

17.01.2010

This ‘Ferrari’ is made from 1,500 t-shirts, 88 pairs of jeans and 26 pairs of shoes and baseball caps from Puma… and probably hundreds of hours of interns time. Visit Creative Review to see a video of the construction of this master-tee-ce*. *Yeah, that fake word sucks and shall be fired out of a metaphorical [...]

More Sleep Please by Collective Edition

16.01.2010

This looks like a tee plucked straight from ATShirtBlog, and I suppose there’s a certain irony in me posting it at midnight on a Saturday, as when most of you read this it will be Sunday or Monday, and those are the days when I really wish I could just spend all day in bed. [...]

Black Stripes by Johnny Wombat

16.01.2010

This Argentinian brand don’t appear to have a store on their site (though they are in a few retail locations in their home country), which is a little frustrating because they have some really cool tees, perhaps if you e-mail them they’ll organise sending one out to you?
