Yup, the Disney logo is a shirt meme, fortunately the designs I’ve seen so far have been pretty cool, and I’d count this offering from Qwertee amongst that group.

Can someone explain the reference on this TeeRaiders shirt/hoodie? Is it referencing an actual event or is it purely invented by the artist?

When memes and games collide at Shirt Punch today with ‘Snake in a Box’.

Catch of the Day Tee again don’t have anything on their site, I wonder why they don’t put up a message when they haven’t got a shirt to offer, or why they don’t just run the shirts for another day of sale.

Have a Concise Value Driven Message 480x318 Daily Tee & News Roundup for October 27th
Mashable put out an article not-that-long-ago that called ‘10 Essential Tips for Startups‘, and judging by some of the things I get in my inbox I think that quite a few t-shirt companies could do with heeding some of their advice.

Thou shalt not rip on 24tee every day. Different strokes for different folks. Actually, this shirt is pretty cool.

At first I thought that this Loviu shirt was just a paint blob, which would have been cool, and then I notice the stars and Saturn, which definitely kicked it up a notch.

This Australian fellow wants to get into the t-shirt game, and he’s going down the Rockethub route (that’s Kickstarter for people without US bank accounts), give him your support if you like the tee.

It’s almost November so you know what that means, seeing guys with really thin mustaches doing their bit for charity. I’m tempted to give it a go myself, would any of you guys sponsor me? Fuzzy Ink have a global partnership with the Movember Foundation this year, and they’ve produced some great shirts for the occasion.

Friendly Ghosts by Muttley at MySoti

Thumbnail image for Friendly Ghosts by Muttley at MySoti

Y’all know that I love negative space on a tee, and using negative space to create a ghost sounds like a great concept to me. I like this design and I’d be happy wearing it, but when I look at this tee I think to myself… kids shirt, right? How good would this be as [...]

It’s What’s On The Outside That Counts by Option-G

November 19, 2009

You know I’m a child for designs that use negative space, there’s no rational explanation for it, they just do, and for all of those worrying that this tee is really shallow, the outside that Option-G are referring to in this case is not good-looking hotties, but actually out in nature. They’re probably right, but [...]

I’m going to be in Newcastle for the weekend, but that doesn’t mean that the shirts will stop flowing on HYA, I’m intending on robo-posting a fullschedule of shirts on the site, but they will be lacking in commentary, this will hopefully alleviate the pressure on my bulging inbox, and help you guys find some [...]

Ugmonk turns 1 and releases a tee to celebrate the occasion!

September 1, 2009

If you asked me how old Ugmonk was I wouldn’t have said one, I thought they were wayyyyy older, like 2 or something. They’ve certainly come a long way, I’m pretty sure I remember seeing one of their designs in the Urban Outfitters on Walnut in Philly, and I doubt many small brands get their [...]

Review: Of Horror I by Akumu Ink

June 2, 2008

I have to make a little admission about this tee before I get to the meat of the review. Usually, when someone e-mails me and asks if I’d like a sample, I tell them my size (although I do tell people to send whatever size they want), my address, and I don’t pick a design [...]

Review: David Lee Nagel by Thom Lessner for Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction

May 14, 2008

I knew who David Lee Roth was since we’re both hard rockin’ amigos (though, admittedly, I didn’t recognise him from the tee), but Patrick Nagel was a new name to me, which I think shows my considerable lack of art history knowledge, but once I found this website about him I did actually recognise the [...]

Blackbirds by Option-G @ Little Paper Planes

April 15, 2008

Big rectangular prints on the front of a tee are.. err… big, this season, I’ve noticed them cropping up more and more recently and its a style that I’ve come to really enjoy. For me, there’s a feeling that they are a good way to put art onto a t-shirt, the print conforms to the [...]
