Origin68, New Site and New Line!

by Leah on February 8, 2012

Origin68 has made-over their site and it certainly is looking quite nice. In addition, they have added eight new tees making their 2012 Spring/Summer line. My favorite t-shirt from the bunch would definitely be Enjoy Life (pictured on the pretty girl above). It displays an incredible use of type to create a design – first of all, it grabs my eyes with it’s bold use of red on heathered gray, and then I am intrigued by the way LIFE flows into a circular shape to form something almost organic or whimsical, while ENJOY is tucked away elegantly within the top of the design, that I love! Oh, let’s not forget the subtle details; the placement of their name at the bottom of the design, as well as the hem tag – ah, so refreshing and just right.

Cost: £20.00 Buy it: Origin68

MORE from their new line (and honestly, I enjoy them all!)

Post image for Fat Gold x Dolls for Idols Collaboration t-shirt

I have no idea who Dolls for Idols are, I don’t really keep myself in the loop when it comes to music anymore, but judging from the song above they’re pretty cool. I may not know music but I do know tees and I really like this design, the typography is delightful and I think that the design really suits theiur style of music, it’s the kind of thing that I can imagine wearing to a club on a night out.

Costiness=28€ (including free delivery worldwide) Buy it at Fat Gold

T-shirt News for January 18th

by Andy on January 18, 2012

Any Dexter fans in the house? I’m sure this TeeFury design will be right up your street.

I don’t think that sounds like a good idea AT ALL. Shirt.Woot.

RIPT couldn’t decide on a reference today so they had to just use all of them.

I don’t get it. Nowhere Bad.

Awful lot of skulls today at Shirt Punch.

One for the atheists over at Stupidhurts.us.

I don’t watch Archer, but I’m fairly sure that’s what this TeeMinus24 shirt is referencing.

There’s a new Doctor Who t-shirt at 24Tee.

As long as you like all-over prints this shirt at DBH is rather lovely.

Hey look, Tilteed are selling that cool sushi t-shirt again.

Design Juices showcase 50 t-shirts with interesting typography.

T-Post are giving away the T-shirt Stories documentary DVD (which I can’t find anywhere in the UK, and I don’t know if I can order it off French Amazon) to people who subscribe to their tee service.

Green Day are running a t-shirt design contest, except you have to be part of their ‘Idiot Club’ to enter, and that has a $20 annual subscription, so you effectively have to pay to enter this contest… lame.

Miles To Go are running a poster sale until Friday.

Wrongwroks have opened a 2nd store in China, it’s fun to watch Tony’s brand expanding.

HYA isn’t going dark in protest of SOPA/PIPA (mostly because I don’t think anyone would miss it) but a lot of other websites are.

Rigu is still a thing.

Karmaloop have a video about L’il Wayne’s new clothing line (that doesn’t look at all like every other BAPE-esque brand out there), TRUKFIT.

604Republic have upped the prize in their design competition.

“Ohio Blues” t-shirt from Garage Cotton

by Andy on January 18, 2012

in T-shirts,Text/Typography

I get the feel thing that the colours on this design mean something to American football fans, but since the coverage we get in the UK doesn’t go beyond the NFL (well, we can get college games via ESPN, but I can’t justify an extra $15 a month when I won’t watch it that much) I can’t immediately identify the team, and since ‘Ohio Football’ brought up a lot of green in Google Images I’m a little confused.

The good thing about this shirt, and the thing that attracted me to it first amongst the football related shirts on offer at Garage Cotton, was that it can be enjoyed by someone who isn’t necessarily a sports fan, hell, I’ll probably never go to Ohio and I think that it’s a great shirt!

Costiness=$26 Buy it at Garage Cotton (also available in other colourways)

Gorgeous “Faith Hope Love” t-shirt from The Greatest Of These

by Andy on January 17, 2012

in T-shirts,Text/Typography

I really like the type work on this shirt from The Greatest of These (I’m not too sure about that name though). Unfortunately it’s only available in size medium and large, of course there are plenty of people out there that size, I just don’t happen to be one of them.

Costiness=£14 Buy it at The Greatest of These

Daily T-shirt News Roundup for January 12th

12.01.2012

Am I the only person on the internet that doesn’t have an obsession with Cthulu? $10 at TeeFury. Shirt.Woot are playing on the idea (I think) that Shakespeare didn’t write his own plays with this ‘Ghost Writer’ t-shirt. There’s no pop culture reference in this RIPT design… I don’t know how to react, where’s the [...]

Two lovely new shirts from SockMonkee

10.01.2012

SockMonkee is always reliable to bring out a solid design, and luckily for us today we have two new designs from SM to enjoy. Of the two if you wanted me to pick a favourite I’d go with the ampersand, but I don’t want to take anything away from the character design because that’s pretty [...]

“Future Football Culture” t-shirt from Eleven Eleven

05.01.2012

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 [...]

Edward Teabelly’s Jolly Good Tea-shirt Line

04.01.2012

We British are obsessed with tea, mostly, I’m not the biggest fan in the world but I’m warming to it slowly when it gets forced on me. As a nation for which a cup of tea can fix almost anything, it’s hardly surprising that someone would create a line of t-shirts dedicated to the not-so [...]

Type – Eat Fast Die Young [Review]

30.11.2011

I received a tshirt last week from Euan Gallacher of Type, a Scottish brand run by a talented graphic designer. It came with stickers and flyers (all beautifully designed) and in its own vacuum pack bag (like meat) which I was very impressed with, I have seen all manner of packaging but this was simple [...]

Daily Shirt Roundup October 19th

19.10.2011

‘Portal Who’ gotta love it when two popular geeky things collide on a t-shirt design. $10 today at TeeFury. Definitely one of the better Shroedinger’s Cat t-shirts I’ve seen, well done Qwertee. ‘White Stripes’ is not a new design at Tilteed, but it’s good and it’s only $10 today, so that’s pretty cool. Nice try, [...]

Two new typography tees from Perception Apparel

04.10.2011

Both nice shirts from the Perception crew, they haven’t got a massive amount of designs in their store but they are all good quality, and it’s cool to see how the brand is evolving and gaining more of a look that it can claim to be it’s own (compare their first three releases with the [...]

“Work in Progress” typography t-shirt by 8teeSix

27.09.2011

Found out about these guys when they followed me on Twitter and I like what they’ve got going on, some cool tees of which I think this is the pick of the bunch. I presume it is on a white t-shirt and that the colour balance is a bit off on the photo (unless that’s [...]

The Social Dept. hit Fab.com for the next couple of days

21.09.2011

I’m sure I’ve heard of The Social Dept. before, but I can’t remember writing about them, oh well, let’s fix that. They’re a company that make t-shirts for ‘design nerds’ and sell them for $25 a pop. On their own site they cover foodies, regional themes, and sports teams, but in their Fab.com sale their [...]

A pair of new tees and a crew-neck sweatshirt from Random Objects

19.09.2011

Very cool release from Random Objects, I like the idea of releasing a pair of shirts that work together but are also strong as a standalone shirt. The crew-neck is a nice addition to their catalogue too, nice to see them straying away from shirts for a change. Tees are $23 each and the crew-neck [...]

“Opinion Leader” t-shirt at A Better Tomorrow

16.09.2011

The phrase “I’m the kid your parents warned you about” is usually put on cheap tees with poor design that I would make me cringe if I saw someone wearing them. However, A Better Tomorrow being A Better Tomorrow, they’ve taken that and spun it on it’s head to create this interesting typography t-shirt. Costiness=€22 [...]
