I got an e-mail from Nestor over at Tolky Monkys about some new hoodies that they’ve got on sale, and I just expected to find their regular designs has been transferred over to a hoodie. That would have been perfectly fine, its what most people do, but TM decided to put a little bit more effort in and have come up with this absolutely awesome collection of hoodies based on three new characters, with a re-editing of an older one called Hikiko Pacman.

Perhaps I’m going a little bit overboard with the hyerbole, but I am seriously impressed with this collection of hoodies, hell, I might even buy one myself.

Check out all four hoodies here and weigh in at under €50 a piece, and click through to the gallery for a boatload of pictures.

This Madrid-based clothing label have sat in my inbox for too long, which clearly does them a disservice, because after you’ve checked out the gallery I’m sure you’ll agree that they’ve got some pretty good designs, not a huge range, but their wheat/chaff ratio is certainly very healthy. As usual, if anyone fancies having a crack at translating the Japanese on their sweaters (shown in the gallery) then I would very much appreciate it.

Their (flash-based) website is really cool too, and it’s pretty rare that I’ll say that about a flash site!

Nonoloa (sorry about the misspelling before)

Tolky Monkys has hooked up HYA (and a few other blogs) with an exclusive coupon code that will give you 50% off your order… but there’s a catch. This coupon will only work five (5/cinq/cinco/funf/quinque/wu/panch/go/khamsa) times. Once it has been used five times it will no longer be functional, which basically means that you’re going to have to be quick to use this, so as soon as you’ve finished reading this I suggest that you run, don’t walk, over to Tolky Monkys and buy something.

The coupon code is: HIDESEPT08

If the 5 uses don’t get snapped up quickly (I have no way of knowing who and when it has been used) then the code will expire on September 19th. There is no limit on the amount of items that you can order with this code, so this is be a great opportunity for Americans to pick up something from Europe without having to take out a mortgage.

I’ve never really been all that into polo shirts with prints on them, but I think that this new polo line from Madrid-based label Tolky Monkys might turn me around on this piece of collared casual wear.

As usual, the designs are character based, and I’m really impressed with all of them, the tees are just for the girls and includes some really cute designs, the polos are for guys and girls.

Check out the girls tees, check out the polos.

Tolky Monkys, the Spanish company who make character-based tee designs, have released their summer line (everyone’s at it at the moment, aren’t they?), and if I may say, its pretty damned cool. Click here for a Flickr set of the new designs.
