The Threadless Story: How an internet clothing company went XXL [videos]

September 17, 2010

I haven’t actually watched this video because my internet connection is really, really slow at the moment (this kind of up-down connection is what you get when you’re miles away from the substation), but since it’s been blogged about elsewhere I can only presume that it’s enjoyable viewing. If it whet’s your appetite for more [...]

If you’re a dedicated Seibei stalker like I am, you’ll be well aware that right about now, David Murray is flying over the Pacific on his way to Japan to exhibit at Design Festa. It’s a pretty big move for him, well, for any brand really, so it’s a good thing I got this interview [...]

Here’s what I like about the interviews I’ve been doing over the past few weeks; I’m asking people I find interesting questions I want to hear the answers to. I guess it’s a little self-indulgent, but I think it works and hopefully you guys are enjoying the interviews as much as I am. In the [...]

In case you thought that Threadless was only good for stalking people and performing menial labour tasks and calling it fun (I’m talking about FarmVille), I spotted this cool note from Jake Nickell, one of the founders of t-shirt powerhouse Threadless, showing an e-mail exhange he had with some asking him about the early days [...]

gama-go interview with greg long

I’m really getting into this whole interview thing, it’s fun asking interesting people questions and getting entertaining responses, and I think that the more of them I do the better I get at asking questions, or perhaps it’s just that I’m asking the right people questions, because Greg Long (one of the founders of Gama-Go) [...]

If you read Hide Your Arms you probably know who Coty Gonzales is. If not, he’s another tee blogger, a good one, who has been writing about shirts (and more) for the past couple of years, and is quite a lot more comfortable in videos than I am. I think I’ve mentioned in the past [...]

June 4, 2009

I’m going to be straight up with you, I have no idea who Alvaro Ilizarbe is, and when I got an e-mail from Fabulous Nobodies (FABNOB, who I also hadn’t encountered before, though they count me as a friend in their sidebar, so they must be good people) asking if it was ‘worthy of a [...]

Lab Mag interviews Johnny Cupcakes

April 6, 2009

Usually when people Johnny Cupcakes we get to hear the same old “started in his car trunk… didn’t sell out to big chains… loves his customers” story, but The Lab Mag (I think this interview was actually conducted by Aris from Addicteed) have put together a great interview that actually covers new ground (gasp!). Check [...]

Coty Gonzalez interviews me!

March 25, 2009

I probably should have mentioned earlier that I’m taking a few days off from HYA (my brother has come to visit me in Philly, and I’m ill, so there’s just no time for HYA), but if you need your fix of Andy, I recently answered a few questions from ‘the hardest working tee blogger in [...]

Leah McSweeney gets the SpearTalks treatment

March 12, 2008

I might have mentioned Married to the M.O.B (Most Official Bitches) in the past, I can’t remember, but I’m sure I’ve at least intended to, because they put out some really impressive pieces, and are a pretty big deal when it comes to the oft neglected world of womens streetwear. Leah McSweeney, the founder of [...]

January 7, 2008

I was perusing my old bookmarks, when I noticed “SpearTalks: Threadless – Josh Spear“, and thought, “hey, people might like to read this!” There aren’t any startling revelations, but if you need to brush up on your Threadless history and want to learn a bit more about the guys that run Threadless, its a pretty [...]

Ban T-shirts: The Interview pt.1

September 5, 2006

I recently sent some questions over to someone I know only as ‘the Dude’, sounds secretive, no? Well, not really, he’s the person behind Ban T-shirts, a tee company ‘deconstructing society shirt by shirt’, and he’s got some pretty strong opinions: 1. At a time when liberalism is fashionable amongst the younger elements of American [...]
