What do you want to know? Ask this old and wise cyclops owl anything and he’ll provide you with the answer to any question that you may have lingering in the back of your mind. What should you have for dinner? What will you be doing in 10 years? Who will you marry? What’s the [...]

50% off at Imperfect Articles this week

Thumbnail image for 50% off at Imperfect Articles this week

When people try and categorise t-shirt companies the term ‘art t-shirts’ gets bandied about more often than it should, but Imperfect Articles are definitely in that niche, it feel to me as if they get artists who don’t normally do tee designs, and because of that you get some interesting results that make for a [...]

Regan Smith Clarke: Fall 2010 out now!

Thumbnail image for Regan Smith Clarke: Fall 2010 out now!

I know it’s only his sophomore release, but after coming out of the blocks so strongly with his first line, I can’t have been alone in expecting a lot from Regan this time around. I blame myself, but I don’t think he’s quite matched up with my expectations. There’s four new designs and I really [...]

Teetonic are alive?

Thumbnail image for Teetonic are alive?

I used to write about Teetonic quite a bit back in the day, but they do seem to have been in the wilderness for a bit. I got an e-mail from their mailing list saying this: Hello stranger, just like an old school friend who has just asked you to ‘friend’ them, we’re back. And [...]

Is this the new Johnny Cupcakes store?

Thumbnail image for Is this the new Johnny Cupcakes store?

When I was heading into London on the train last Monday evening after a day measuring and templating a kitchen for my other job, I realised I hadn’t arranged to meet anyone in town, and after a few fruitless calls and texts, I decided to let the HYA Facebook page decide where my evening was [...]

LEGO T-shirt Folding Machine (putting that Stanford degree to work)

12.10.2010

I can’t take any of the credit for finding this, that goes to Coty (and his post has a K’nex t-shirt folding machine too), but this was too cool not to post. I’d say I could fold 2 shirts in the time that this LEGO Mindstorm powered machine does it, so clearly this was done [...]

Pyknic amongst the top 25 young entrepreneurs in the US?

Thumbnail image for Pyknic amongst the top 25 young entrepreneurs in the US?

This is cool, it’s really good to see indie brands that work damn hard and care about what they do getting some coverage from the mainstream media, and in particular mainstream media like Business Week that wouldn’t usually be that bothered about a little company that sells food-related tees. I got this in an e-mail [...]

Johnny Cupcakes Halloween Release

12.10.2010
Thumbnail image for Johnny Cupcakes Halloween Release

I was prepared to be underwhelmed by this release from Johnny Cupcakes, the idea of releasing shirts specifically for a 1-day holiday has never really appealed to me, but thankfully most of these designs have quite a lot of scope beyond the day of ghostly goings on.

Thumbnail image for 10 tees, 10 pounds, for 10 days at I Came From Nothing

We all know I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with tees that can be put under the generic umbrella of ‘gore’ but that doesn’t mean you guys should miss out on a good deal from I Came From Nothing. They’ve put ten of their shirts on sale for the princely sum of 10 [...]

Get your ‘Restore Sanity’ rally tees for 25% off

Thumbnail image for Get your ‘Restore Sanity’ rally tees for 25% off

As soon as I saw the episode of the Daily Show where Jon revealed his big announcement about the rally to restore sanity, I thought that tee folks were going to be all over it, and naturally, I will be too, hunting down photos from the rally, hopefully finding some shirts from cool indie producers, [...]

Some great new designs from Holebrain

Thumbnail image for Some great new designs from Holebrain

I haven’t mentioned Holebrain for a while, but that’s only because they haven’t done much (or at least not much that I’ve heard about), but they got in on the 10/10/10 action by releasing their latest line at 10:10 on Sunday morning, which would usually be a terrible time to release a clothing line (sane [...]

Last chance for Vintage Vantage tees, $6.50 for men, $5 for women

Thumbnail image for Last chance for Vintage Vantage tees, $6.50 for men, $5 for women

I know I’ve mentioned the Vintage Vantage closing down sale before, and how great their tees are, but this deal is too good to pass up. I can’t think of anywhere that has sold tees of this quality this cheap before, so hop onboard the sale-train before they leave the station for good. Since this [...]

Yeah, I guess it is about time you picked up your halloween tees if that’s what you’ll be wearing on the spookiest day of the year, and Design By Humans have taken that as an excuse to hold a week long sale with tees as low as $9, though I can almost guarantee that the [...]

I didn’t particularly want to take a week off from blogging (but it was no holiday, when one job has less for me to do the other one takes over), but HYA is back and should be on schedule for at least the rest of this week after BT replaced the telephone pole that someone [...]

Sorry about the lack of posts this week guys. I was down in London for a couple of days on a non-tee related job, and when I returned home yesterday I found out that someone had broken the phone cable leading into our valley. It looks like someone drove into a pole near my house, [...]

Thumbnail image for ShirtHive: connecting t-shirt brands with great designers… soon.

This is a project that I have been thinking about for quite some time. If you follow my tweets and read Emptees you’ll know that I floated this idea months ago, but now things are becoming a lot clearer, and we (yes, we) shouldn’t be too far off deciding upon a launch date. What the [...]

Just in case you haven’t had quite enough Andy for one week (one more post and then I’m out until Wednesday because I’ll be away on business), you can check out this interview by HYA’s latest sponsor, Tiny Celestial, in which I was asked 5 questions about my favourite subject…. ME! (and t-shirts). It was [...]
