It’s kinda funny that a tee which mentions the future has such an un-modern print. Is anyone else as much of a sucker as I am for message tees that initially appear to have meaning but in reality don’t actually mean particularly much?

PTnK stands for “Peace, Tolerance, ‘n Kindness”, which I must admit put me off this brand a little bit, the name’s a bit flowery for me, but I guess that when you’re a company trying to put a positive message out there then it needs to be in your name too. I really admire people that make a t-shirt line based on what they really believe in rather than what they think will sell well, because in my experience tees with a message can often be a tough sell. Although that’s usually because the message is put ahead of the design, but I think that PTnK have achieved a happy medium in that they’ve got some really cool designs, often in a vintage style, and the message isn’t rammed down your throat.
If you’re wondering what this message is that I’m yammering on about, PTnK is a women’s only t-shirt line that is trying to get away from designs that cheapen women, such as t-shirts that say “Daddy’s Little Slut” (I can’t believe that t-shirt actually exists, and on a lot of sites too).

I’m starting to get into text shirts at the moment, and this one speaks to me for some reason. To me, this tee kind is poking fun at message tees that are supposed to be poignant and thought-provoking, by having a poignant and thought-provoking message. Genius!

Tees with a positive message have usually seemed a bit lame to me, but this one from Print Liberation has forced me to re-evaluate my position on t-shirts that. I guess it isn’t actually a positive message, its more of a lemons/lemonade kinda deal, but still. I really like the way that they’ve thrown the type all over the tee, and put the arrows some of the letters to reinforce the message of how different decisions can change your life.Costiness=$22
