Monsiuer T. have dropped their Spring line which looks totally awesome, every design a potentially popular tee on Rumplo (except for the single hat of the collection). One of them was even worn by a member of The Roots on the freakin’ Colbert Report! See!
Apparently, stocks are very limited for this line so get on it if you want something.Monsieur T. Spring Line

The FB crew have gone condiment crazy in their latest release of three designs, and also got in on the latest tee meme of putting mustaches in places where they wouldn’t usually be found (apparently they’ve been putting mustaches on bears for ages). I take exception to their anti-mustard stance though, as I have only really come to love the yellow stuff over the past few months (its revolutionised my breakfast pastrami bagel!), but other than that I’m pretty darned impressed with these designs. I really like how they’re pushing themselves by using ‘fuzzy suede ink’ and metallic ink on the bear design tee, you all know I love it when people use different printing methods and whilst I’m always a fan of metallic ink, I’m particularly impressed by the fuzzy suede being used because it makes sense and fits with the design rather than just because they could.

The three tees are on preorder now for $20 rather than the usual $24 until June 1st, and the tees will ship on June 16th. If that’s a bit much for you, how does 15% off sound? Good, right? Well, just input the coupon code HYA into the appropriate box at the bottom of the first page of the checkout and press ‘recalculate’ and the discount will be applied. You might not actually have to press recalculate, but that was how I checked it so maybe that’s how you should do it too. Oh, and this code works on any shirts in their shop, not just the pre-order ones.

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 AITAs press releases.

The new Spring/Summer 2008 line from Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction highlights seven new artists creating original designs. One of these bright artists is Thom Lessner who designed the David Lee Nagel parody tee.

The very talented Mr. Lessner brings bipolar hero worship alive in this tribute to both Patrick Nagel and Diamond Dave in the David Lee Nagel tee. The tee is available for both men and women and includes the 80’s, 90’s and the naughty auties all in one!

Thom Lessner originated from Ohio and is now living and playing in Philadelphia. Thom’s parodied cartoon renditions of pop culture figures have become his signature style and his works have traveled through Philadelphia’s SPECTOR gallery, Los Angeles, New York, and abroad. Currently, Thom is an ardent skateboarder and a rock n’ roll star in the costume-clad band Sweatheart.

To be completely honest, I don’t think that the David Lee Nagel tee is the best of the bunch in terms of the latest releases from AITA, but they seem to be really excited about it so I might be missing something, but I guess its hardly a surprise that my favourite has gold foil on it.

If you’d like to get 20% off this tee (or any in their store), just use the coupon code FF2008 in the checkout from now until May 9th and you will receive that 20% discount. Thanks to Katrina for that coupon code.

Owl Movement released their seventh range about a week ago and I somehow managed to miss it despite receiving a couple of e-mails about the collection, so my apologies about that. Its a solid range of four new pieces, with some recognisable names doing the design work, none of which have produced designs for OM in the past, hurrah for keeping it fresh!Owl Movement

David has put up a few new items and colourways into the Seibei store… rejoice!

The first thing to get refreshed is the Ice Wizard hoodie (which I first reviewed back in March last year) which is now available in a ‘Red Baron‘ colourway of red/white, and a there is also the ‘Blockhead edition‘ for those of you that have a yearning to look like a bumblebee. The new hoodies have drawstrings that match the vinyl trim colours too, which is cool because I know that there had been a problem with sourcing decent coloured drawstrings in the past.

“I like to say stuff and eat things” has been completely reworked and looks awesome, I really love the gradient print and putting it on a striped tee is a bold move, but I think it works pretty well.
I can’t remember if ‘Superpredators’ is new or not, it might be the case that it has just been a work-in-progress for such a long time that I just presumed it had made its way into the store at some point. Either way, its a massive dinosaur on a t-shirt, and that can’t be a bad thing. [available in Mint or Pink]
Last but not least, there’s Fierce, which involves a three-headed dog wearing a gold chain, about to eat some diamonds… naturally.

So, I write about robot tees months ago and all of a sudden everyone is selling them. I’m not saying that I’m a barometer of style, but… okay, that’s exactly what I’m saying, I can’t wait to see what design trend I cause next!*

Ten Bills are back (even though they barely went away) with their fifth series, title Robot Rebellion, and its a really strong set of releases. What I like about Ten Bills is that they don’t necessarily stick to one certain style set, which I guess is fairly natural since they have a few artists, but it is still pretty easy for brands like Ten Bills falling into a safe routine of releasing tees that look similar in style, so I applaud them for avoiding that. My personal fave from this bunch? Blazin’ Glory on Forest Green by Bobby Liquori (4th from the left in the above pic).
