I was looking at Dead & Alive’s store and for the life of me I couldn’t think what currency “SFr.” was, espeically since they’d advertised their sale as being $10 shirts and the tees were SFr. 10 as well. So I Googled it, of course, and quickly realised that it stand for Swiss Francs. I [...]

Am I following up a post in which I say prayer is essentially pointless with a post featuring a (cool) tee by Hydro74 in support of The Salvation Army, which is of course a Christian organisation? Yes, yes I am, because this is a t-shirt blog and I can be a hypocrite whenever I want, [...]

Thumbnail image for “Prayers Don’t Fix Buildings” by Wordboner

This. I don’t want to get in an argument with people that believe praying will help the situation in Japan, because I know your intentions are heartfelt, but I just don’t believe it and I’m pretty sure that people in Japan would rather have food/shelter/warmth than positive thoughts. All profits from this tee go to [...]

Thumbnail image for A Bathing Ape “Rescue and Rebuild” Japanese Charity T-shirt

There seems to be a bit of backlash amongst people (that I’m following on Twitter, at least) against buying things like posters and t-shirts which give a portion of their sales to charity to help with the massive devastation in Japan. I can see the point, why buy something when you could just give directly [...]

Simple face tees from the Facemakr team

Thumbnail image for Simple face tees from the Facemakr team

It’s funny just how easily people anthropomorphise everything. That t-shirt is a circle with two dots in it, yet I look at it and immediately know that it is meant to be a face, though admittedly it being on a site called Facemakr probably provides more than enough context for me to work out what [...]

Big sale on at Publik

Thumbnail image for Big sale on at Publik

Publik make some seriously nice tees (amongst other things), but with them being a Japanese brand and them having some serious heavy-hitters of the design world creating shirts for them, they tend to be a bit on the pricey side, so this sale is very much welcome, not everything in the store is on sale, [...]

Thumbnail image for “Sleeping Samurais Lose Their Eyes” from Death Before Dishonour

I like this tee design, it’s pretty full on, but then again Death Before Dishonour don’t really do half measures, so I was expecting nothing less when they tweeted me a link to this design, which was apparently inspired by a book called “Go Rin No Sho” from 1645 by Miyamoto Musashi.I have no idea [...]

At the weekend the love-of-my-life and I went to the gargantuan Trafford Centre near Manchester to shop (I bought pants!), exchange her broken iPhone (Apple were having none of it, but they’ve sent one now, huzzah!), eat burritos, watch Scott Pilgrim (post about the tees in that coming up soon on HYA), and generally have [...]
