Okay, so this isn’t going to be the cheapest T-shirt on our world tour, or the easiest to get hold of, but hot damn, it’s funny!

Produced by Denis Simachev (who’s a bloke btw, that’s Dennis, not Denise, in non-Russian) who seems to be the kind of designer who put the edge into edgy, this tee is a garlanded image of the last Russian President and current Russian Prime Minister, Vladimir Putin. And beware when you click Denis’s site link, there’s a woman on the home-page with four eyes, two mouths but only the right number of nipples (don’t say I didn’t warn you!)

So why – apart from the nipple stuff – is Simachev edgy? Well this is the guy who reportedly got on a plane in 2001 to fly to Paris, carrying as his luggage a suitcase filled with his own “Russian Spirit” clothing collection. He went to one show and was ‘politely asked to leave’ but the next showroom he visited looked at the togs, saw their potential and gave him a show on the spot. Aw …

Mind you, be prepared to take your own suitcase full of money to invest in a classic Simachev teeshirt, we’re talking about $600 for a tee here and that’s more than a month’s wages for the average Russian.
