These shirts are a little bit different from the usual BustedTees offerings, but I like the style so I don’t have anything to complain about, even if I don’t understand all these American sports references!

I’ve really been into football this season, probably because my and my boys are really into our fantasy league (well, I am, but I’m winning so of course I am), and because Newcastle are still doing a lot better than expected despite a fairly poor December. The problem as I see it with football t-shirts is that they’re all a bit blokey and tribal, they mark you as supporting a certain team or are a bit of a novelty (is anyone still wearing a Balotelli-esque ‘Why Always Me?’ shirt?).
Eleven Eleven aim to change that with football-based designs that are smart, wearable, and don’t make people think you’re a football hooligan. They come from that bastion of footballing heritage, San Francisco, but in spite of the impediment they have produced a lovely line of designs, which is hardly a surprise considering that the brand was founded by Artefacture‘s Andreu Osika.

On the face of it, the concept of a t-shirt about curling (the winter sport involving stones and brushes that apparently Scottish women are good at) done in the style of an 8-bit cartridge game package from the 80s doesn’t sound like it would catch my fancy, and when the designer sent me an e-mail about it was wasn’t that intrigued to be honest, but I clicked through anyway, and I was pleasantly surprised by what confronted me. Something isn’t sitting quite right with me about the font used for ‘curling adventure’ but I don’t really know what it is or how I would make it better, so it’s a bit of an open-ended gripe.

Why must I keep punishing myself in this way? Because, let’s be honest, the USA’s football team has a pretty sweet design for their jersey, they had it on Sautrday night, and they had it in 1950 too.
