Threadless Loves… Travel

October 10, 2008

[I'm busy as hell, please excuse the recent rash of blurb-based posts] This one’s probably the most open-ended contest that Threadless has ever run (apart from the regular contest… obviously), because its theme is just ‘Travel’. The winner gets sent to Iceland which is really cool, even if that country is probably about to go [...]

What’s new at Scribtee?

October 9, 2008

The Scribtee crew have dropped three designs, all of which are printed on American Apparel tees as usual; one by Aliadotony (the grey one), one by Ninhol (the white one), and one by Attilla “Ilja” from Berlin (the black face tattoo one). I’d say that my favourite of the bunch is Favela (the white one), [...]

What’s new with laFraise

September 15, 2008

I don’t know why I cover laFraise‘s weekly releases when I don’t do the same for Threadless or Design By Humans, or the rest of the myriad of design competitions out there, I guess its because no one else really touches laFraise, probably because they’re still stubbornly ignoring American shoppers (the laFraise US store isn’t [...]

Camiseteria *Thanks to Fabio from Camiseteria for [...]

Hmmm, it feels like its been way too long since I last posted about a robot t-shirt, so here’s one from Bang Bang T-shirts (who you may have noticed have a lovely new ad banner). This design, showing a robot appreciating robotic takes on classic artworks, was the winner of their recent ‘Robots’ design competition, [...]

More Tape? by Tang Yau Hoong for itself. [Review]

August 29, 2008

I think that the thing that drew most people to itself. was the fantastic glove pocket tee, and designers were probably drawn in by the possibility of a $4000 cash prize for submitting a winning design, but if you took a closer look at itself. then you would have found a very promising site with [...]

I for one welcome our tea-drinking robot overlords

August 27, 2008

When I took a quick look, and it was a very quick look, at the submissions to Terratag‘s design competition (basic guidelines: design a t-shirt with a robot on it) I wasn’t actually all that impressed with what I saw, but I guess that I must have missed this design, because I really like the [...]

Buy a skate deck, get a free laFraise t-shirt, I think I might love Popdeck!

August 27, 2008

Remember the Popdeck x laFraise competition that I mentioned a while back? Well, it seems that things have taken on an exciting and unexpected twist! If you purchase any deck from Popdeck (not just the winner from the laFraise competition) you’ll receive the Popcorn design that was one of the laFraise winners. That shirt costs [...]

The (Pattern) Battle is over at Allmightys

August 26, 2008

Allmightys are rapidly turning into my favourite European design competition, they’ve got the quality, the community, the artists, and I just get a generally good feeling about them. Their latest themed competition was based around patterns. As you can probably tell from the gallery above, the winners were a pretty diverse bunch, branching off from [...]

Fair and Bare T-shirts (oh, and wotto, again)

August 14, 2008

So, what do we have here? It’s a new t-shirt design competition… again, who is the designer of this t-shirt? Wotto… again. It almost feels as if this blog is turning into the wotto appreciation society, which wouldn’t exactly the worst thing in the world since he clearly knows his way around Illustrator, but how [...]

August 9, 2008

When Design By Humans launched last year they kicked off their design competition with a $5,000 contest. This year, as part of their birthday celebrations, they’re kicking it up a notch, making the prize fund a massive $10,000 in cash. I’m sure there’s going to be a lot of interest in this, so make sure [...]

August 7, 2008

Oh, wow, another t-shirt design competition, what’s that we’re up to now? A bajillion? Yeah, that sounds about right.

From the people that brought you the Glove Pocket… more t-shirts!

Remember that t-shirt that had a glove stitched onto it? Yeah, that was fun, wasn’t it? Turns out that itself, the company behind the infamous Glove Pocket tee, aren’t just a one-hit wonder, they’ve got more tees that don’t suck, and I handily put pictures of them into the gallery. The black tee is called [...]

The summer sales just keep on coming, don’t they, forcing me to spend my days indoors writing about sales rather than going outside to enjoy the summer, oh the damned irony! Scribtee are the latest brand to get in on the act, by offering 8 of their older designs (I think they were the first [...]

6 new tees from Camiseteria

July 30, 2008

You know who people don’t talk about enough? Camiseteria. I know that their site being written in Portuguese is something of a hurdle for us mono-linguists (hint: look at the link URLs, they’re written in English), but if you haven’t checked them out before click on through and marvel at some really pretty darned awesome [...]

The Future of the Past was Perfect if you ask Allmightys

July 10, 2008

Here’s another great theme for a design competition. Allmightys latest competition has the name “Future-Past-Perfect”, you may be wondering waht the devil that means. Well, how about letting Allmightys explain: “…refers to a time that is in the future, relative to another point in the past, but is in the past relative to a point [...]

Don’t Panic, its Balls to Bullfighting with this competition

June 6, 2008

(I thought you’d rather see that nice image from Don’t Panic rather than a bull being killed in the name of sport)I’ve never actually watched a bullfight, but I have visited many arenas where the events are held (I really liked this one). In the south of France and Spain, Roman arenas that have stood [...]
