Afro Jazz by Bernos

2009-11-09T09:00:00.000-08:00

The latest Bernos shirt is called Afro Jazz and is inspired by the music of Grand Kalle et l'African Jazz (aka African Jazz). Personally, I think the shape of African continent is very cool anyway, but when made out of music notes that come out of a saxophone... that's just sick!

Star Paws!

2009-11-04T08:02:00.000-08:00

You know, I believe we can never have too many Star Wars t-shirts (and the same goes for Star Trek too) and that's why I always welcome a nicely done Star Wars design. Pandy Cane's theme is pandas and candy and I love how they incorporated this theme into a Star Wars shirt. The design is made by the always awesome Greg Abbott and is printed on AA red shirt. It'll cost you £15 (plus s&h) to get one of those goodies but you can always use my super magic coupon, "shirtsaround", to save a good 10% off your entire order (this coupon is permanent and you can always find it at the sidebar). Sweet detail, all Pandy Cane shirts come in custom printed boxes filled with sweets!

The Ripper, New Shirt from Akumu Ink

2009-11-03T09:04:00.000-08:00

Akumu's new gem is called The Ripper (yes, that would be Jack the Ripper) and is the first one they used gold paint. The print is pretty big and most of the ripper's figure is filled with a nice fleur-de-lis pattern. I totally adore this new design and the choice of this color is just amazing, and as Joe puts it "the choice of making this a gold print is like having the dim street lights just outlining this deviant murderer".
In other news, Akumu Ink also launches 3 packages of shirts and hoodies, so you can now buy 3 t-shirts for $58.99 (10% savings), or 2 t-shirts and 1 mystery t-shirt for $55 (15% savings), or 2 t-shirts and 1 hoodie for $81.99 (10% savings plus free pinbacks). Returning customers will receive this limited edition paper toy called "The Vampire" (see image below).

A Must'Stache for Movember

2009-10-30T08:49:00.000-07:00

I laughed my ass off when I saw this design from No Star Clothing. Proceeds from A Must'Stache will benefit Movember, one of the worlds largest (and coolest) charity for men. Here's the blurb:

Your mustache can cure cancer.
Movember is an annual, month-long celebration of the mustache, highlighting men’s health issues - specifically prostate and testicular cancer.
Each Participant (Mo Bro) starts Movember clean shaven, and grows a mustache all month long, garnering support from friends and family in the form of donations.
To date, Movember has raised $47 million globally making it the world’s largest charity event for men.
No Star has teamed up with Movember and is both donating proceeds form all our mustache tees and starting a team of our own...a team to be reckoned with.

Brand New Brand: Pop Cotton

2009-10-28T08:25:00.000-07:00

Pop Cotton is new brand (it's launching today) from San Francisco, founded by graphic designer, Tuan Huynh. Their first collection consists of 12 designs that feature simple but thoughtful and playful graphics, that the more you look at the more you enjoy. As you know, green is the new black nowadays, so these folks screen print their shirts using only water-based inks that are better for the environment. For the moment there are only men's sizes available but there's plans for women and kids shirts as well. To get one of those goodies it'll cost you ~~a good $29.50~~ $26 plus whatever shipping.

It's What's on the Inside that Counts

2009-10-27T08:37:00.000-07:00

This design is a reprint from Dutch Southern, although I don't remember it at all, and it's pre-tty neat. It features several good but not so... attractive characters, like Edward Scissorhands, Steve Martin as Cyrano, Elephant Man, Quasimodo, and many others that you should be able to recognize. One thing I like about Dutch Southern is that he knows how to put a good twist on pop culture themes. Thus most of these shirts will never go unnoticed (and you want to be noticed, right?).
This shirt can become your's for $19 plus s&h.

New Shirt from Supermandolini

2009-10-26T08:21:00.000-07:00

Supermandolini is one of my favorite stores out there (not to mention that are fellow Greeks) and much to my surprise they haven't come out with any new t-shirt since 2007! So I'm thrilled that they finally launched Shooting Target, a design previously existed on canvas and print. According to the description, Shooting Target "can be described as a reaction to personal frustration confronted with humor and irony".I'd say, it a pretty damn dark design with a humorous twist, actually the humorous part is what makes it even darker. At this moment, this is the only design in Collection 2, so should we expect for more to come?
Supermandolini printed this one on men's and women's American Apparel and will send it to you for a good €30 (plus s&h).

Pirate Bath Clothing

2009-10-25T15:35:00.000-07:00

Pirate Bath Clothing is a new store by Jodi Sagorin who, like many indie shirt producers, started her career by designing shirts for herself, friends and family. She is only 18 and Pirate Bath is her first attempt to screen print a larger amount of shirts, since she basically hand paints everything in her garage! Actually, Jodi has set up a Kickstarter to raise money to buy the equipment needed for screen printing her designs, and there's a video and a link if you'd like to pledge any amount. Of course, with 12 bucks a piece, these shirts are so darn cheep and you still get to help her. The designs are pretty simple, one-line, black and white kind of big doodles with interesting placement and if you ask me, for the money you get a hell of a deal.

Fourth Is King

2009-10-23T09:32:00.000-07:00

Fourth is King is a store created by designer James Byrnes, creative director of art and graphic design studio, Adapt-Studio, Inc. The store currently features three designs (and more to come) that I find quite... refreshing. These are simple, groovy, cheerful designs printed on limited quantities so you know only few people have the same shirt. Normally it'd cost you $28 (plus $5 for shipping) to get your hands on one of these sweeties but if you use magic coupon code HOORAY you'll save a nice 15% off your order!
Offer until the end of October.

Breathe On Apparel

2009-10-19T10:33:00.000-07:00

Breathe On Apparel is new brand that came to my attention lately. According to Nico, one of the founders, BOA "brings together unique designs that have influences ranging from music, sports, and urban life", and sponsors many musicians and athletes (surfers, skateboarders, and the like). The designs are bold featuring huge prints but range in styles, so there's definitely something for every taste. The shirts are made by 100% fine jersey cotton and their prices range between $21-22 (the discounted ones can be as low as 10 bucks), which I find quite reasonable. Also, the BOA folks have plans for jeans, jackets, and button downs, that will launch this winter, so stay tuned.
Update: use code YEAHBOY and get a nice 10% off your order for limited time only!

2009 Tolky Monkys Microstories Contest at Shirts Around. Lets Have Some Fun!

2009-10-14T01:00:00.000-07:00

This is actually a very fun contest. Tolky Monkys, those crazy Spaniards, have created a new character (shown in the image below) for their store but they're missing his (or hers if you wish, I'm not judging) name and story. What they want from us, is to invent a story and a name for this poor creature. You can write your ideas at the comments area starting today (one name and story per comment), October 14th, until October 22nd. There are quite a few blogs participating in the contest and you can enter in all of them but with a different idea. The story should not exceed 250 words (remember it's a microstory). Keep in mind that Tolky Monky characters are super nuts!
Now the hot stuff, los prizes:
-Two big winners (one for the story and one for the name) among all blogs will each get a package of four (4) items from the new collection.
-Two winners from each blog will receive one random shirt each.
-You might also wanna know that bloggers are participating too, so two bloggers will receive a gift pack. So don't disappoint me, ok? I'm expecting your best ideas!
To read all the fineprint click here, here, and here.
To break the ice, I'm gonna go ahead and write the first comment, so that you guys know that there are more stupid ideas than yours...

The Tattooed Lady Collection by Binkie

2009-10-12T08:25:00.000-07:00

I first featured Binkie back in February ad I was totally impressed with their shirts, with their level of sophistication, that's why tody, when I received their newsletter, I rushed to check out their new Tattooed Lady Collection. I wasn't disappointed, once again they pulled together an amazing collection, combining beautiful patterns to create mysterious figures, and stitching different fabrics on blank shirts to achieve a look of real craftsmanship. Of course you might find it kind of "too much" to pay the $150 NZD (around $110 USD) but that doesn't mean I can't keep salivating over these shirts, right? If I could spend the $100+ Binkie shirts would be my first choice.

Candy floss and carnivals, palm readers and fire eaters; step right up folks and check out the mysterious, the notorious , the loveliest Tattooed Lady.

2009-10-11T10:06:00.000-07:00

Anyway, still a good shirt, Minimal my Ass shirt from Wasted German Youth.
