Threadless classic – the cow ‘fail’ T-shirt
Wednesday, March 31, 2010 12:20 1 CommentOne of the lovely reprints over at Threadless caught my eye and then my heart. Budi Satria Kwan has an $18 tee that has a triple classic theme: Classic story – it’s a nursery rhyme, right (not a Meow Meow trip, as Mikey keeps suggesting) but sweetly updated Classic twist – there’s a ‘fail’ joke [...]
Weekend bounty Tilteed T-shirt
Saturday, March 27, 2010 6:12 1 CommentGreg Abbot is fast becoming one of my top designers. His spyglass T-shirt is up today at Tilteed.com and it’s one of those loopy little designs that starts out looking like kids stuff, then becomes progressively darker the more you think about it, and ends up being a metaphor for all the things your mother [...]
Yet another well-worth-owning typographical T-shirt
Wednesday, March 24, 2010 18:09 No CommentsSome people have a mystical relationship with typography. Some just like typefaces and some just can’t see what the fuss it about. That last group are idiots by the way. But ignoring them, for now, just look at this beauty! The Helvetica family is a set of four versions of the font: each of different [...]

Saturday, March 20, 2010 15:25 No CommentsI’m whole-heartedly in love with this Nixon Melodie Girls T-shirt – lovely spring colors, and a cute cap sleeve style that makes the tee work whether it’s chilly outside or unseasonably sultry. The best place I can find it for sale is Skate Warehouse who have it at the sale price of $12.99. But, they [...]

Wednesday, March 17, 2010 11:47 No CommentsSomething a little retro about this T-shirt, waved it under Kay’s nose and she muttered about ‘High Fidelity’ which is a book about music, apparently – who knew? Anyway I feel good about this T-shirt for two reasons: 1. the colour scheme of the pale blue and greyscale overprint is masculine in an understated way [...]
Spring is sprung T-shirt
Wednesday, March 10, 2010 7:13 No Comments… and the mind turns to bunnies. Not bunny-boiling but cute little bunny-rabbits, hippity-hoppiting around on the new grass of spring and all that stuff. Also candy and chocolate. Lots of it, in a basket, carried by a rabbit – right? Possibly my current thinking is influenced by Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, which is [...]
March Madness T-shirt
Wednesday, March 3, 2010 13:53 No CommentsI think it’s pretty good that I made it to March before giving in to my lust for funny tees – I like big laffs and I cannot lie … So finding a tee that’s grin-worthy and design-strong was my task. And it was pretty easy. The Mountain is one of those companies that apparently [...]
