A blog about hoodies & t-shirts


Rian Hughes, who is so well known in the UK that even I’ve heard of him (and I live in the middle of nowhere), has launched a couple of tee designs through his company, Device.

To be completely honest, the tees don’t actually excite me all that much, the prints look a bit small for my liking, and I don’t really understand the concept behind ‘Good not God’ (beyond it being for atheists), though I do think that the illustration for Chic Geek is pretty cute. The graphic novels listed underneath the tees on the page look awesome though, I think I might need to look into this Rian Hughes fellow a little more.

I thought that the e-mail from Reece about this tee was pretty funny, and since sharing is fun, here you go:

I’ve delved deep into my sole to create my latest t-shirt.

Not only have I decovered the meaning life, the universe and everything…

…but I’ve made a pretty t-shirt too.

I like the way that sentiment sums up this tee design as well, about corporations being like a new, shiny form of religion (what’s that, there’s something else I can queue up for outside the Apple store?), but I think the argument is somewhat crippled when its being sold on a t-shirt, although thats probably the post-modern point.

Apparently Vishnu is the “being responsible for the preservation of the universe,” so I’m pretty sure that if you’re going to make a tee about Vishnu then sequins are an absolute must!

I wonder how Hindu’s (right religion?) feel about people wearing a tee with their God on it when they don’t really understand what it is they’re wearing. You don’t see me wearing a tee with a picture of the Prophet Muhammad on it now do you?

Remember those protests last week when people put Guy Fawkes masks on and had funny signs protesting Scientology (ha, as if you need that link)? Yeah, it was kinda weird, but I did think it was about damn time that someone finally took a stand… and copied V for Vendetta when protesting, seriously, how did it take this long?

daydream harvester tee by Cotton Factory

This tee has no political or religious statement to make, as far as I can tell, its ‘just’ a well designed and executed tee with a slightly trippy concept behind it. I know which of the two I’d rather have in my wardrobe, but they’ve both got their attractive qualities.
