A few weeks ago my buddies over at Pop Culture Tees dropped a post that covers the basics of getting more traffic to your site, and we all know that traffic+good product=sales (I almost made that traffic=sales, but it doesn’t quite work that way), so I thought I’d share the article. I’ll summarise their thoughts: [...]

“Melt their hearts” a grilled cheese inspired t-shirt by Lunch League

Thumbnail image for “Melt their hearts” a grilled cheese inspired t-shirt by Lunch League

I would rather have one of these beautifully designed sandwich-based tees than one hundred shirts that involve the words “Team Edward.” Seriously though, I do love a grilled cheese sandwich (or toasted cheese sandwich as we Brits call it, or ‘panini’ if your a cafe that wants to charge an extra quid). Costiness=$35 Buy it [...]

Snowflake hoodie by Rainy Day Prints

I can’t really think of much more to say about this hoodie other than that it looks nice and I would like to wear it, which should be enough for clothing, but when you’re someone that write about clothing for a living it doesn’t quite cut the mustard. Costiness=$34 Buy it at Rainy Day Prints

5-3 Diagram, a sublimely geeky Mario Bros. t-shirt from 15 Bit Gamer

Thumbnail image for 5-3 Diagram, a sublimely geeky Mario Bros. t-shirt from 15 Bit Gamer

I was looking at this tee thinking to myself “why do I know this tee, and why do I know what is that’s been exploded in the diagram?” after a few minutes it struck me, Coty had written about this tee, and the rare Mario Bros. power-up item it represents. If you knew that just [...]

Tea Shirt, because British people bloody love tea

Thumbnail image for Tea Shirt, because British people bloody love tea

Between ‘people’ and ‘love’ in that title I really wanted to drop the f-bomb in a Hipster Hitler kinda way, but I managed to resist. Yes, British people do love tea, though I don’t really count myself as a fan, I’ll have a cup of jasmine or green tea every so often, but my mates [...]

If you can’t make it good, make it 3D

Thumbnail image for If you can’t make it good, make it 3D

I get the feeling that everyone hates 3D films, right? After Avatar a lot of films came out in it, and because it was trendy people seemed to dismiss them out of hand, and whilst I do think that some films have used it unnecessarily as a gimmick to get people into the cinemas (and [...]

“Keep Calm and Geek On” by 604Republic

Thumbnail image for “Keep Calm and Geek On” by 604Republic

Keep Calm, now there’s a meme that I could make an epic list out of! And yeah, 604Republic are an advertiser on HYA (space available!), but this tee is too cool for me not to mention just because I feel guilty posting my advertisers even though I’m sure you guys don’t mind. Costiness=$18.95 Buy it [...]

“Harry Stardust” a Harry Potter x Ziggy Stardust Mashup

Thumbnail image for “Harry Stardust” a Harry Potter x Ziggy Stardust Mashup

I wonder if there are enough t-shirts in this style for me to make a list of them? It would be a pretty random list, but in my experience shirts aping on the Ziggy Stardust look tend to be pretty cool. By the way, in the last film did anyone else notice that whenever Ron [...]

Smashing Magazine seems to absolutely nail it every time they do a tutorial, and whilst I’m no expert on the screenprinting process, they seem to have done it again with an excellent tutorial about how to prepare your images for printing in Adobe Illustrator.

“Cyclops” a t-shirt for people that like to take pictures

Thumbnail image for “Cyclops” a t-shirt for people that like to take pictures

I got a white Pentax K-x for Christmas, so my interest in photography has been reawakened (which will hopefully rub off on HYA), though I’ve actually been reading Photojojo since it’s early days, and I found this shirt on their Tumblr. The tee comes from Fluent Flyers, who are new to me (probably because they [...]

“Trust Me.” an Ben-based t-shirt for LOST fans

Thumbnail image for “Trust Me.” an Ben-based t-shirt for LOST fans

Me and my good lady friend were walking around Manchester on Monday doing some shopping before going to see Tron at the IMAX (so loud, so awesome!), when someone walked past me wearing this shirt. I’m a LOST fan, and as you might have realised by now I also quite like t-shirts. It looks a [...]

It’s a real pity that P is for Panda is shutting down (even though it was more of a record label than a t-shirt label over the past couple of years), they had/have some really nice tees, and the quality level was impressive I swear you’d think some of the tees they sent me a [...]

Coty’s 365 days of t-shirts

The Hawaiian t-shirt posting tornado, Coty Gonzales, has set himself an almighty task for 2011, “365 days of t-shirts.” I’m sure you’re rolling your eyes, “but Andy, ya handsome devil, loads of people have worn a different t-shirt every day for a year, what makes Coty so special, and by the way, I like you [...]

laFraise have got some really nice hoodies, and them being €32 instead of €39 makes them even nicer. No word on how long the sale will last, but going off their other sales, I’d bet that this will be ending on Sunday.

I can’t really tell you much more than there is in the infographic, except that I’m taking this ‘week’ to mean that the coupon will expire on Sunday at Beautiful/Decay.

Free Shipping at Threadbird until January 19th

Thumbnail image for Free Shipping at Threadbird until January 19th

I don’t get into the nitty gritty of t-shirt production too often, but I know a lot of people reading HYA have their own lines or would like to, so I thought it would be remiss not to mention that Threadbird (formerly Storenvy) are currently offering free shipping on U.S. orders from now until January [...]
