New Designs


Y’know, you leave a company alone for a few months and the next time you check in they’ve gone and had a facelift, its like when you see a girl you know from high school that has become almost inexplicably hot (not that Vintage Vantage was an uggo to start with). They’ve also got a load of new tees for you to enjoy (only a few of which are in the above gallery), some of which don’t seem all that vintage in their style, although perhaps ‘vintage’ style has pervaded society so completely that their designs are vintage, and I just can’t tell anymore.

410bc and their Fall 08 lookbook

by Andy on September 10, 2008


I’ve commented in the past about how much I like the photographs that 410bc take of their tees, and their upcoming Fall collection appears to be no different if their latest lookbook is anything to go by. I actually bookmarked this quite a while ago and have only gotten around to posting it now, so this lookbook post isn’t actually a tease at all, almost everything in the lookbook is on sale in the 410bc store right now.

PopJunkie are one of those brands that I totally forget about after I’ve written about them, only to be reminded of their excellence when I get their newsletter. Their Fall line is now available and its filled with great concepts that have been executed really well, if I were to describe this line in one word it would be ‘solid,’ because I just can’t fault it.

Oh, and if you want to see what happened when PopJunkie went to the POOL tradeshow, check out this Flickr set.

To me, the character design on Tokyo Massacre is pretty cute, yes, she’s holding a chainsaw, but at the same time, its a pretty cute style. Maybe I’m starting to get a bit dark if I think that anyone wielding a chainsaw can be cute, please shout at me if the blog starts getting too gothy (“dudes, this glow in the glow in the dark tee would go great with my pentagram necklace, ring, and belt buckle!”).

The second design that Akumu Ink released this month looks like someone decided to put a chess board on your chest with a razor blade, and even gothy old Andy thinks that this may well be a little dark, but I do quite like it. The tee is called Shukketsu, any chance a Japanese speaker in the audience could enlighten us?

Oh, and they promise they’ll have hoodies on sale next month, huzzah!

Enclothe released four new designs (well, three new and one reworking of a classic) a couple of days ago, one of which, the green one, Digfoot, was created by Sven Pamlowski, known to many as a.mar.illo. All four tees are pretty cool, not following any specific kind of theme or style, which is something I like about Enclothe, they print what they like, not what they think will sell well… although chances are these will sell well anyway!

Wow, I mean really, wow, it takes a special kind of person (me!) to write a post title that bad.

Ceer!us Apparel’s winter line has been made available, and to be completely honest I’m not all that excited by it (although this, this, and this are pretty cool… huh, I guess I do like it!), but I really love the photoshoot that they’ve done to promote the new range.

Akumu Ink Never Say Die

July 9, 2008

Akumu Ink have taken things in a different direction for their latest design, putting a lighter twist on their usual dark designs by employing a cartoony style. I really like the way that the cute design and dark subject matter come together to create some weird kind of balance. Me, I’d have made the skull [...]

Monstar Clothing’s Summer 2008 Line has dropped

June 26, 2008

I guess that these tees might be a turn off for some of you simply because of the use of a logo, but I kinda like them. They have the look of a band tee, if Monstar were a band of course, and at least they’ve made the effort to try something different with the [...]

Johnny Cupcakes: Summer 2008 Release Queue Photo’s

June 24, 2008

No cupcakes, what the hell were they thinking?!I think this is the first time that HYA has ever had someone actually do a bit of reporting that isn’t me. I found out that Huzzah Goods were going to be taking a peak at the line snaking out of 279 Newbury Street, asked if they could [...]

Allmightys: 5 tees rocking their store right… now!

June 20, 2008

Allmightys are impressing me more and more these days, and its releases like these that are part of the reason behind that. One of the other reasons is that they seem to really be focused on giving their artists a great deal. I’m not saying that other design competitions are doing that, but I actually [...]

Even more new tees from Wrongwroks

June 18, 2008

Okay, I think this should be the last in what feels like a flurry or Wrongwroks posts for a while now (they can’t have more up their sleeves, can they?). All three tees are currently available in Wrongwroks ‘Stuff‘ section.

Two new design, two new colours and some exclusive pictures from Akumu Ink

June 9, 2008

In my previous looks at Akumu Ink I’ve mentioned more than once that they’re pretty dark (in the literal and figurative senses), not that that’s a bad thing, but having designs that are always printed onto a black tee are going to pigeon-hole you a bit. I guess that Summer must have arrived in Montreal [...]

EIO Clothing: Summer is finally here

June 9, 2008

Excess is Ok again, because its starting to feel a lot like summer in the UK, and that means that EIO are comfortable freeing the beast that is their summer range. I’m happy to report that they have gone big with the majority of their designs, and also rectangular, which, as I’ve been telling you [...]

Le Sucre are back, despite never going away

May 28, 2008

Le Sucre, the French-named, Germany-based, sugar-loving clothing company, have released a series of new designs that look pretty freakin’ sweet, and rather unusually, some of the girls designs are printed onto tee dresses. They aren’t particularly cheap, but prices do include shipping (although people outside of Europe need to contact them to discuss how much [...]

It’s not all quite available yet (the skate decks [...]

David Lee Nagel by Tom Lessner for Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction

May 2, 2008

Damn, that was long title! I’m currently wading through the quagmire that I call a ‘migraine hangover’, the day after a bad migraine where you feel like you’ve got a hangover but didn’t get to have all the drinking fun, so I’m going to hand the typing duties over to whoever it is that writes [...]
