Co-Tee TV Episode 41: Melted, New Math and Pirates

Coty — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 23:02:16 +0000

In this episode of Co-Tee TV I wear Melted by Desired Hearts and review Modern Art and Pirates from New Math by Craig Damrauer. The shirts are based on the popular website, More New Math, and the book written by Damrauer. The site, book and shirts feature witty equations for every day living.

Coty’s Thoughts:

Pirates and Modern Art by New Math. Pros: The New Math shirts by Craig Damrauer match the New Math website and book perfectly. Printed on American Apparel tees so you know that I dig the fit and feel of these shirts – super comfortable and soft. My shirts came packaged in a lovely New Math printed cardboard box. Excellent shirt for those who enjoy mathematics, typography or just fun witty one liners. Cons: Nothing really. The shirt is what it is and that is a compliment to the New Math book and website. Price: $20.

Panda Assassin

Coty — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 08:42:32 +0000

Our friends over at Crazy Go Lucky just released a new tee and it’s a bloody one. A bloody pandy to be exact. Panda Assassin is the newest character addition to the Crazy Go Lucky line. The design is printed on a Mint 100% Cotton Jersey tee and is available for purchase for $20. Head on over to the Crazy Go Lucky website and get the lowdown on the Panda Assassin. Here’s a snippet of his bio:

“Panda is a panda trained by the government under it’s Counter Terrorist Agency to be a skilled and deadly government operative. While the CTA could have created an android or trained a human, they chose a panda just because they thought it was cool at the time. They trained panda in marksmanship, combat, strategy, endurance, and agility. The training was so intense that it caused panda to bleed from the eyes and mouth….”

It’s What’s On The Inside That Counts

Coty — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 07:43:55 +0000

Dutch Southern continues with their movie themed shirts with this beauty, It’s What’s On The Inside That Counts. Hollywood tends to feature the glitz, glamour and beauty but this shirt is the exact opposite. It’s What’s On The Inside That Counts features some of films more “colorful” characters. In other words, the ugly dudes. This shirt is a who’s who of facial feature deficient characters of films past. I love it!

It’s What’s On The Inside That Counts was designed by artist Andrew Gregory (aka lunchboxbrain) and is printed on a silver American Apparel tee and is available now from Dutch Southern for $19.

Watch T-Shirts Get Printed

Watch as designer Dan Cruz turn his ideas into actual T-Shirts.

I’d also recommend you check out his online store, Dan Cruz NYC, he’s got interesting albeit odd tees. Here’s a taste of his shirts and some of my favorites:

Sr.Craneo Character Co.

Coty — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 09:46:40 +0000

Sr.Craneo! is a new brand with a bold and distinct style. I like the typography and the simple 2 color prints. The shirts have a very urban feel which I dig. The hand character seen on a few of their shirts are a bit reminiscent of Mickey Mouse, but that just might be me and my imagination. Other than that, I like it! Also be sure to checkout the Sr.Craneo Big shop, they have some interesting product shots. The designs are printed on American Apparel tees and sell for €22.00.

“Sr.CR! is a project of lifestyle and urban expansion with brand name, with an attitude and personal view of urban activism. It´s inspired by big cities nowadays life, skateboard, hip-hop, black film, old-school culture, the do it yourself, basket… It has reminiscences to the first companies of skate and street wear, it´s an independent movement inside a community and culture that’s born on the street. Sr.CR! is produced in limited editions, taking care of details and quality, in fact, most of the clothes have a specially pattern design for Sr.Craneo Character Co.”

15% off at Airastile

Coty — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 09:02:08 +0000

Airastile (air-a-style) is the creation of Santa Fe, New Mexico based designer and illustrator, David Medrano. If you’re wondering what Airastile means, don’t think too hard because there is no meaning. Medrano didn’t want his brand categorized or defined by a specific genre, instead, he wanted the people that wore the brand to define it – Airastile is what you want it to be.

Airastile currently has 5 tees for sale priced at $20 a piece but you can save 15% and get free shipping by using the code “airastile09″ at checkout.

Skilla Black Cardigan

Coty — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 19:42:44 +0000

I’ve mentioned Skilla Fashion on the site before, in fact, you can watch a video review that I did for the Skilla Power of Peace tee. Skilla Fashion just released a new cardigan and I thought it was worth sharing. I’ve noticed that more indie brands have been incorporating cardigans into their line. I think that the Skilla logo works perfectly on the cardigan, giving it a classy and dignified look.

The Skilla Cardigan features a classic cardigan cut, fits slim with V-neck opening, 6-button closure and a red & white Skilla logo print.

Nike T-Shirt Gun

Coty — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:16:05 +0000

I don’t think words could even give this item justice. Seriously. So I’m going to keep the word count to a minimum so you can enjoy the photos and video. It’s a Nike branded T-Shirt Gun and no, it’s not a concept piece. It’s an actual product that was sold on the Nike website for a cool $1500 (currently sold out).

Holy Crap

Coty — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 10:08:25 +0000

Holy Crap is a fun little gem that I discovered over at Sharp Shirter, the same guys that brought us the popular Haymaker tee. The design itself is a bit sci-fi-ish, okay, it’s a lot sci-fi-ish. Its also got a little bit of asian influence with the anime like main characters on the front. I almost feel like this design could be a frame from a major hollywood summer blockbuster. It’s got this huge epic feel to it. I guess with dinosaurs, UFO’s and zombies, it has got to be epic. In need for a good plot to your next big screenplay? Pick up this shirt for inspiration.

You can pick up Holy Crap from Sharp Shirter for $19.98 but be sure to use the coupon code “sharpshirterlovesyou” at checkout for an additional 10% off!
