A new design challenge! Travel part TWO!

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 09:55:08 -0600

It�s time for another vacation, don�t you think? In 2008, we sent a talented Threadless designer to Iceland! This year, in collaboration with STA Travel, we want to send someone on an amazing 11 day excursion to Australia!!! Ladies and gentlemen, start your computers, put on some travelin� tunes, and let your imagination run far and wild because�.

Your challenge is to design a tee based on the concept of travel!

Not only do you have a chance to partake in arguably the biggest, most exciting Loves windfall yet (thanks to STA Travel) but you�ll also be traveling in style & comfort with your new Osprey bag and dope Skullcandy headphones. That�s right. We said dope. We can�t help it! We�re super excited to see what you come up with! You have until December 2!

Ready, set, GO!

Innovation! A new design challenge!! Loves it.

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:49:05 -0500

Let�s hear it for innovation! It�s the driving force behind improvements in all areas of our lives, be they technological, ecological, and pretty much any other word ending in �-ical.� As a matter of fact, it was a new and innovative way of thinking that transformed a one-off tee shirt contest into� Threadless! And now it�s your turn...

Your challenge is to create an amazing tee design based on innovation!

Will you choose to depict innovations of the past, present, or future? Perhaps you have your own innovative ideas to present on a tee? The Consumer Electronics Association wants to feature your chosen design at the world�s largest gathering for consumer technology � the International CES � in Las Vegas, and they want YOU to go! That�s right! A 3 day stay in Vegas, swanky hotel accommodations, a Flip cam, AND passes to the show to check out all of the newest innovations in electronics! You have until November 15 to submit a design so...

On your marks, get set, innovate!

New Art. New Ideas. LOVES chosen design!

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:42:32 -0500

Congratulations to Daniel on his amazing "3 Eyes, 3 Vehicles" tee. Not only did it catch the eyes of the Threadless community, but it also turned the heads of folks at NYC's New Museum! They chose this design out of the pack to represent the New Art & New Ideas that are showcased there every day.

As part of the design challenge, we flew Daniel to NYC (from France!) to be a part of our launch party for the tee at the museum itself! Let's all give him a big ol' round of applause!!!

A new design challenge! Threadless, Tate Museum, Pop Life!

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 15:28:55 -0500

What does �Pop� mean to you? (We aren�t talking fizzy beverages, people). Does it elevate the everyday or take the stuffing out of high culture? Or is it simply art that�s not afraid of being a product? Whatever the theory, it�s undoubtedly visually striking and your interpretation will look stunning on a tee in the Tate Modern shop!

Your challenge is to design a tee inspired by the Tate Modern Museum�s Pop Life exhibition. Check out the Tate's challenge page!

Check out Pop Life�s featured art/artists for inspiration and how artists like Keith Haring, Takashi Murakami and Damien Hirst explore the boundaries between art and commodity. And make sure you tell us how Pop Life inspired you when you submit your �Pop� inspired tee shirt design.

We're picking TWO designs for this puppy! One 18-25 year old designer will be chosen by a special panel of Tate Judges and one "all ages" designer will be chosen by Threadless to receive a whole slew of awesome stuff!!!

Pop over and take a look!

Hey yous, what�s a Threadless Classic?

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 10:51:53 -0500

Does Classic mean iconic? Does a Classic bring people together? Does a Classic require a visual pun or food with faces? Or do Classics just really effing rock? We here at Threadless can�t seem to limit ourselves to a definition, but we all agree we know one when we see one.

Most underrated Classic?

Hello Classic blog peops! Today we're focusin' on the most underrated Classic. We think it's probably "Nuts" by Barnaby Bocock. The only weblove we can find on it are these two posts. Whatchu think is the most underrated? Tomorrow, we'll be back with more Classics stuff!

Nuts!

Nuts!
More Nuts!

Si Scott Classic

Today's Classic selection is made for those with broken hearts and emo sensibilities. Or those who just heart the amazing British artist Si Scott. This Select tee is inspired by the Daniel Johnston song "True Love will Find You in the End." How has the tee inspired you? Or anyone you know? Tomorrow, we promise we'll get less serious with our Classic choice.

True Love Will Find You In The End

Swans mate for life! Check out the Si Scott interview by our own Bob Nanna!
