Funny how much in my life has changed because I semi-spontaneously decided to write about t-shirts and hoodies one day when I should have been studying for my exams.
Thank you very much to anyone that has ever blogged for HYA, visited the site, linked to an article, commented, advertised, followed on Twitter, liked on Facebook, anything. Anything that anyone does to help this site helps keep me behind these monitors doing something I love instead of some soul destroying job in a cubicle or outside in the cold, and I truly do appreciate it all.
Four years is a long time in the t-shirt industry, I think we can officially call Seventh.Ink veterans now that they’re four years old. To celebrate this they have produced a limited edition (only 50 pieces made) t-shirt and poster set. The mockup of the poster doesn’t show it, but they’ve used metallic ink which should give a really nice finish to the print, my mistake, it’s a regular print, but is signed and numbered with metallic ink. You can pick up your set for $50 now.
Street Casuals are celebrating being open for a year, so they’re doing something unusual (for them) and have released a 15% off coupon code. The code is NL15 and you can use it until October 16th. They’ve built a pretty impressive collection of brands considering they’re so young, congratulations guys!
I could have sworn that these guys had been around for more than a year, but I suspect that merely shows what kind of an impact they’ve made on the indie clothing scene, getting themselves well-known enough to be influential in such a short amount of time, so they feel like a more established entity than they really are.
To celebrate hitting their first year Kyle is releasing a t-shirt and poster package (limited to 50), costing $26 for both, and I think that it all looks fairly nifty, though naturally I prefer the shirt over the poster.
I still haven’t gotten around to writing about Vaughn de Heart’s recently released line, but I did find the time to check out this video celebrating their two years in business, and it’s surprisingly inspirational and makes a lot of good points about the clothing industry. Even though the market is clearly saturated you shouldn’t be put off if you have a dream of starting a clothing line.
