A blog about hoodies & t-shirts, with news from the independent clothing world


I think I’ve finally found a tee that even I am willing to destroy my own personal beliefs for and use leet speak to say that this design of a pigeon in full Mr. T garb made me LOL, and even LOLL (laugh out loud, literally).

I can’t really imagine people actually wearing this stuff, although Asian streetwear culture is vastly different to ours, so they’re probably all over it, but for some reason I kind of admire the audacity of a brand for putting bikini-clad models on to t-shirts. Here’s the blurb for the top tee:

On October 3rd, Limited Edt will release a Singapore exclusive tee featuring Yuko Ishida standing inside the infamous “Vault.” Since 2005, Limited Edt’s appointment-only Vault has housed some of the rarest sneakers in the world, on display for the people of Singapore and visitors from around the globe.

The tee features a white bikini clad Yuko holding a pair of the cult-classic Air max 90 infrareds and wearing a pair of Limited Edt’s own New Balance 577 collabos.

This tee will be available exclusively in Singapore on October 3rd, at the following Limited Edt locations: Limited Edt Vault, Limited Edt Queensway, LE2 and Limited Edt Peninsula.

I did a little googling around to find out who the woman on the shirts was (Yuko Ishida), and aside from her being a ‘gravure model’ (whatever that is) and singer, I found a blog post in which she’s wearing a bra made up of rice bowls, which is about as sexy as it sounds!

I’ve got no idea who these two guys are, but I guess I’m a bit of a sucker for photo tees.

handmade t-shirt by … s u s …


The chances of you getting this cool looking t-shirt delivered to your doorstep are pretty slim, and by pretty slim I mean impossible, because it’s a one off that the designer did as a gift for a friend, but I thought it would be nice to point out what someone can do with some fabric markers and a lot of skill.

Das Monk are AOK

Das Monk are a graphic t-shirt label based in the beautiful city of Sydney, Australia. It’s pretty hard to nail down exactly what their style is, because they’ve got a couple of designs like the one above, but they also have photo style design, comic book art, pattern, hand-drawn (I realise all designs are hand-drawn, but you know what I mean, right?), and even a tee that has a play around with some text. They’ve got a solid line-up of designs, quite a few of them are simpler than the one pictured above, AOK, and quite a few of them are in the shape de rigeur of a large rectangular print.I’m sure that when you heard that Das Monk were from Australia sky-high shipping prices crossed your mind, well, if you purchase two of their tees (which are all produced using 100% organic cotton) then you’ll get free shipping no matter where you are in the world.Das Monk

Photo prints can often come out distinctly ‘meh’, but I guess that its a lot easier to get them right when you do them in black and white, and this one has definitely been done right.
