I don’t really understand the crossover between My Little Pony and Pokemon, but I’m sure some of you will.

Having never watched Venture Bros I’m not particularly enamored with today’s shirt at RIPT.

Nice 8-bit tee at Shirt.Woot today.

It’s always perplexing when people send me an e-mail about their brand when they don’t have anything on sale. Why would you want me to write about you when no one can buy your stuff?
Preferred Classics are also a brand who do not yet have a store, admittedly their mockups look fairly cool, but why not start promoting yourself in October when they will be on sale? Well, I assume they want to have some fans and momentum behind their launch which is why they have already kicked off a big, big competition.
They are giving away a t-shirt to a person from every state in the US, and that person will be the first to e-mail them from that state. The ‘pioneer’ will receive a logo t-shirt and a bunch of other goodies (when they’re printed, presumably). A quick count shows that there are still 19 states left on the map that haven’t had a winner yet, so I suggest you run over there now and fill in the contact form, what have you got to lose?

If I were Colin and I had more than $425 in street team points stored up at Threadless I wouldn’t be giving them away, I’d buy everything that’s on clearance and making myself a bed out of t-shirts (which would probably be a lot less comfortable than I imagine. But no, Colin from Troundup is nowhere near as selfish as me, so he is going to be giving away $425 worth of Threadless gift certificates over the next couple of weeks, that’s a $25 GC every day, culminating in a $100 certificate to be given away on his 21st birthday, September 20th. Certificates will be given away via the blog, his Facebook page, and his Twitter account.
But wait, there’s more! He’s set up an Amazon wishlist of items that cost $10-$18, mostly vinyl records, so that you can buy him a present for his birthday. Why the hell would you want to do that? Because if you do, you’ll be sent a $25 gift certificate in return, so you could spend $10 and get $25 of Threadless credit in return, in the industry that is what’s known as a ‘good deal’.

Super Superficial make some beautiful tees they’ve got a couple of stores in London and if I’m ever nearby I’ll pop in to have a look. They’re doing a bit of a roadshow at the moment, every month they’ll go to a different location around London and give anyone a free t-shirt if they’re willing to pose for a photo, seems like a pretty good deal to me since they do charge £35 for tees from their latest range and that’s what they’re giving away.
The next event in on Wednesday 30th March at their Covent Garden shop. If you’re interested you can apply here leaving your contact details and shirt size.
