A blog about hoodies & t-shirts

I’m not actually all that in love with the design as an illustration, but I think that something simple like this skull design works really, really well as a t-shirt, y’know? Sometimes I see a tee that has a great illustration, but I just don’t feel like it wears well.

Newvember at Linty Fresh


Just a heads up, I’m going to be using the term Newvember all month, or at least until I stop finding it amusing.

Linty Fresh have released a couple of new tees (Cyril the Cyclone & Fish, etc.) for November, and also the very exciting concept of the ‘bundle box‘. In a bundle box, you pick two tees and a belt, and they come in an awesome looking box for $50, which represent a 20% discount on the regular price of the items.

Tokyo Art Beat seem to be a jack of all trades in the Japanese art world (and New York now too), they have events listings, job listings (rather sparse at the moment), interviews, news, and a very cool bi-monthly map of arts happenings in Tokyo.

Luckily for us, they haven’t spread themselves too thin, because their t-shirt ranges are always consistently excellent, and these latest two designs are no exception. TAB have a good blog post about the two new tees and their respective designers, or you can just head straight for the shop.


Nice new tee, huh? Great colourway (its meant to follow Fall/Autumn’s traditional colours), great image, great name (’Life Cycles‘), and pretty good for the environment to boot. It’s printed using soy-based inks (mmmm, soy), and printed onto a 100% organic tee.

Indivisual have got a pretty tasty coupon code for you to use as well, if you use ILOVEFALL in the checkout, you’ll get 30% off your order.

Two new jackets from Stereopanda

10 Two new jackets from Stereopanda

Stereopanda haven’t been on HYA for far too long, so I’m glad to welcome them back by actually writing about something that actually hides your arms, which is something of a novelty at the moment, but since Summer seems to be long gone I think its time to get back in the hoodie habit.

SP have two new offerings, one is a classic varsity style jacket in a great blue/white/brown colourway, and the other is a windbreaker which has an upper-body all-over print of Stereopanda’s latest logo.

Oh, and that logo in the background of the picture isn’t photoshopped, I’m pretty sure they actually have those massive letters.

Jiosy Jacket By Diesel

dies-mo172_v1 Jiosy Jacket By Diesel

This jacket may not be all that wallet-friendly, but I really like it. From a distance it looks fairly simple, but when you look at the close up views there’s actually quite a lot of interesting lines and stitching that elevate this from being a typical jacket.

I forgot to post about this release from Go Ape when it first became available, so sorry about that, since I usually cover Go ape pretty well, but it hasn’t sold out in any sizes yet so I guess that its a case of no harm no foul in this instance. Do the red and yellow characters (ghosts?) remind anyone else of the spirits work of Gary Gao? Like this tee that he did for Oddica.

I’m not saying that its a rip or anything like that, it was just something that I noticed, possibly because I’ve been wearing a Gary Gao design for almost two years now.

Isn’t it annoying how even with 24 hour news, stories are just forgotten about? I would imagine that a few weeks after being struck by cyclone Nargis, Burma (sorry, us Brits still call it Burma) is still in a pretty desperate state, but do we see anything about it on the news? Nope.

Luckily, the folks over at Brute Labs haven’t forgotten about the Burmese plight and want to do something to help. 100% of the proceeds from this t-shirt will be given to IDE who are hopefully being a lot more successful than some other organisations at getting their aid distributed in the country.

Rumplo have an interview with the designer, Rebecca Shostak, who explains what its all about.

Glennz: 3 new designs

Team Photo by Glennz

I neglected to tell you about Glenn Jones’ (better known as Glennz, who has had many tees printed by Threadless) new tee store a few weeks ago when everyone else was mentioning it. It’s not that I don’t like the designs, I just forgot to do it, but hopefully I can make it up to you by posting about the three newest designs that went on sale at his store a couple of days ago.
Haunted Housework by Glennz After Hours by Glennz

My fave is ‘Team Photo‘, it suits Glennz style really well, ‘Haunted Housework‘ is pretty funny and works well as a tee since there’s still a lot of people out there that love Ghostbusters, but I’m not really a big fan of ‘After Hours‘, possibly because I’m more of a pirate person than ninja person, though the image is pretty funny.
