After being in business for just over a year, TeeFury are selling their first ever tee with metallic ink. You should be able to pick it up now for $9, and it will be available for 24 hours (as all their tees are).
My apologies for the page of pics before getting down to the text (because I know you hang off my every word… right? Guys? Hello? Is anyone reading?), but I wanted to show you a few designs so that the effect was clear. Basically, as the tee gets hotter, presumably from body heat, parts of the design change colour, changing the tone of the entire design. As you can probably guess from the title, this is an idea that I really like, I’d like to see it in reality rather than in mock-ups, but Ink Fruit are clearly trying something really interesting. I’d probably be just as excited about the designs as the special ink if they hadn’t put the text on the tree & suitcase designs, but I guess I can’t have everything. I should probably point out that I can’t find the above tees in their catalogue, which is disappointing (I’d written the rest of the post before noticing), so I would expect that these tees are currently being produced, sorry to get you all excited.
Also make sure you check out Ink Fruit’s other tees, they’re a(nother) design contest that have some great tees in their catalogue. [via Shirtlog]

I always have such high hopes for glow-in-the-dark prints, I want to like them a lot, but in reality they never quite match up to my expectations. The glow is never bright enough for me to be happy, and if it doesn’t glow enough, then what’s the point?
I could be wrong about Threadless‘ glow-in-the-dark prints, they could be bright, I’ve never actually seen one myself to judge it, so I might pick this one up for testing because the concept is just wonderful and one of the reasons why I like glow in the dark for adding an extra dimension to designs.
Costiness=$18 Available from Threadless
*I’ve included a gallery of the rest of this weeks new releases from Threadless after the break.

You know what I first thought when I saw these new (and new options for old designs) from Enclothe? That guy is consistent. I’m sure that isn’t the most exciting way that you can describe someone’s work, but Enclothe never seem to put out a dud when it comes to their designs, I like everything in their store, and they aren’t all over the place with the style, so you know what you’re in for when something new is coming up.
One thing that I think is new to the Enclothe range is the use of glow-in-the-dark ink, which is used to great effect on the Ragnarok zipper hoodie. I think my favourite of the four is the Eternal Embrace hoodie, because the whole point of that design is that these two people were locked in that embrace for 5,000 years after their burial in Italy, and every time you unzip the hoodie to tear them apart, genius!
There’s a few detailed views after the break in the gallery for those that want a closer look at the artwork.
