Taking another look at Lucha Workshop

3922026880 cd44db6def Taking another look at Lucha Workshop

I seem to have been on a bit of a nostalgia kick recently, because I keep mentioning items and brands that have been on HYA before, but quite a long time ago. Lucha Workshop are no exception, as they were last featured in November last year, and they’re still putting out designs with black ink just like they used to. I’m not sure if only using black ink is a concious decision for the brand, or if they just happen to think it works best considering the designs largely have a sketched look to them, and people tend to sketch with something dark like pencil or a black pen…. or they just bought too much black ink. Loads of photos in the gallery.

‘Tour Doodles’ Asobi Seksu x Art In The Age Collaboration Tee

asobi mens 426x640 Tour Doodles Asobi Seksu x Art In The Age Collaboration Tee


Regular readers will be aware of my trip to the US earlier this year to be an intern in Philadelphia, that trip probably wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for Art In The Age (even though I wasn’t directly working for them), so you can’t really expect me to be unbiased when I’m writing about them. However, that doesn’t mean I’d cover up anything bad, think about it, how good does a company have to be to make someone that writes about t-shirts travel several thousand miles and live in a city he’s never been to before and knows no one in? Answer, pretty damn good.

Serendipiliciously, I first heard of the shoegaze* band Asobi Seksu when I was in Philly, their album accompanied me on many of the walks down Sansom on my way to the office. Even though they’re from Brooklyn I’ll forever associate them with Philadelphia, which is why this collaboration works well for me, it’s as if the AITA folks had a meeting and decided that the purpose of their latest collaborative tee was to help me reminisce!

The tee’s name, ‘Tour Doodles’, does a great job of setting up the concept, and I like it, I can imagine that if I were in a band that was touring around the states in a bus (and had an ounce of design skill) then I’d probably be drawing in a notebook all the time too, and all that doodling seems to have produced a pretty sweet tee.

Curious Tales make Curious T-shirts (and give HYAers a 25% off coupon code)

in Coupon Codes, Environmental, T-shirts

grover jones black curious tales mens organic t shirt 6a Curious Tales make Curious T shirts (and give HYAers a 25% off coupon code)

In their own words:

The label is called Curious Tales and it combines my love of
storytelling, fashion and the environment. (I also do upcycled clothes
and they were the inspiration for the stories, I started wondering
about who had worn the clothes before and started writing about them!)

All the tees feature scribbly drawings and the start of a story about
a weird character. On some of the men’s tees there’s a scribbly
headless body printed on the front so you become the character as soon
as you put it on.

They’re interactive as well, because you can get creative and continue
the tale yourself, uploading endings to the tale on the website.

Check them out at www.curioustales.com

Because I’m a boring old cynic I don’t really buy into all this ‘tales’ business, no matter how whimsical they might be, but I do like the hand drawn designs, and the tees being made of organic cotton or bamboo is a plus as well (I’m so into bamboo tees at the moment, really soft, great for summer). Curious Tales don’t just do tees either, they’ve got a whole load of accessories too.

From now until July 10th you guys can enjoy a very generous 25% off your order by entering the coupon code hideyourarms at the checkout, which is nice.

Nah, I can totally still be the first ever person to be President of the World/World Cup winner/Astronaut/guy that kicks Piers Morgan in the nuts until he realises just how much of a hideous human being he is.

“Do You Like Me?” by I Hate Fashion at 80s Purple

07.01.2009

When I first saw this tee I thought it might have been a one-off, something that someone quickly whipped up before heading out to a party, but now that I know that it’s available from a site as big as 80s Purple I’m afraid it has lost quite a lot of the DIY charm that [...]

“Supremebeing Skewbert Black & Sketchbook Reversible Zip Hoodie” at Urban Retro

16.12.2008

Now that’s a long title!
I know that I’m showing you this hoodie with the ’sketch’ side showing, but I actually prefer it with the black side showing and the sketch providing a nice bit of contrast on the hood lining, but I figured that it would look a bit boring in the picture, and the [...]

Clusterf**k by Draw Limited

09.12.2008

Our friends over at Pop Culture Tees (and their Space Invaders background) found this tee which I think its fair to say is not only a clusterf**k but cluster-awesome!
Oh, and despite the name, I don’t think that there are any adult goings on on the tee, but don’t quote me on that.

One Day by Blood Is the New Black [Rumplo Rocks]

I’d like to write a great description of this tee, but I can’t think of anything good. I’m really sorry about that, maybe I’ll be able to write something better in the future…

Electric Tape by epidemic @ Bang Bang T-shirts

20.05.2008

Ahhh, another day, another robot design, considering I only have one robot-based item of clothing (I think), I sure do write about them a lot, don’t I?
I also have a bit of a tendency to fall in love with hand drawn designs, so this tee has swept me off my feet on two counts. The [...]
