Reel Passion T-Shirt From Threadshirt

Published April 3, 2007 in Abstract T-Shirts Artsy T-Shirts Excellent Design T-Shirts T-Shirts Threadless. Comments (0)

I missed writing up a post about this week’s newest batch of Threadless shirts. It wasn’t my favorite week, with the only shirt I really liked being Reel Passion. However, while I do like the design, I doubt I will end up actually buying the shirt.

Another decent shirt is the text tee, To Err is Human… (pictured below). It’s mildly funny to me, but there are many other shirts I would rather buy. Anyways, I don’t have much to say, hopefully there will be some great shirts next week.

Spreading Out T-Shirt from Ten Bills

I really like this t-shirt, Spreading Out, from Ten Bills. The design is a little small for my taste, but the actual content of the design more than makes up for that. Also, I should mention that Ten Bills is currently selling all their shirts for $5 until they run out of stock, so you can pick this up super cheap.

Price: $5.00 | Ten Bills

This t-shirt, Spiritual Warfare, from Black Sea Apparel has a pretty kick-ass design, and that’s why I like it. You can’t really see the design in the picture, but if you go here, you can see a closeup (its the one on the far left). Like most of the shirts I pick, this one is printed on an American Apparel tee.

I can’t link directly to the shirt, so you’ll have to fish around their site for a little.

Price: $16.00 | Black Sea Apparel

Urban Cleansing T-Shirt by Martin Hsu

According to Martin Hsu, cleansing is important for you health, even if youâ€™re an incredibly well drawn Hindu deity. This is one of Martinâ€™s newest designs,and features a Hindu deity wearing a gas mask. I really like this design, I just think it looks pretty dang cool. It also has a great meaning behind it (at least how I interpret it). As an added bonus, the tee is printed on a silver American Apparel t-shirt.

Price: $22.00 | Martin Hsu (I’m unable to link directly, so you have to go to the shop menu and scroll down a little)

Hayabusa Samurai T-Shirt from ethaibid

Published March 30, 2007 in Artsy T-Shirts Cool T-shirts Excellent Design T-Shirts T-Shirts. Comments (1)

The design of this shirt is simply beautiful, and thats all I have to say on the matter. They have a bunch of shirts similar to this, many with a Thai/Japanese theme (they are a Thai company). Unfortunately, I don’t know how comfortable a huge design like this would be. According to the site,

“No machine can duplicate the beauty of this hand screened wearable art. The true beauty and detail of this shirt is hard to capture in pictures. We screen print our shirts by hand using long lasting non toxic “watercolor technique” dyes on a wax press. This beautiful cotton polyester blend shirt is guaranteed to impress! Handwash recommended.”

However, that is kind’ve vague, and I still have some doubts. But, for the relatively cheap price of $22.99, with free shipping, I’m tempted to try it out based simply on the design.

Also, if this is a selling point for you, their clothes are not produced in sweat shops. As an aside, they also have these awesome Thai fishing pants for sale which look incredibly comfortable.

Price: $22.99 (free shipping) | ethaibid

Once Upon A War T-Shirt By Linty Fresh

Today’s tee is Once Upon a War by the guys over at Linty Fresh. The design postulates what the world will be like after a World War. Here’s the description from the site:

It is said that when the invention of the Wright brothers was first applied to warfare they were appalled, claiming that their intentions for the airplane were purely peaceful. Similar sentiments came from Einstein, who later wrote, “I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be faught with sticks and stones.” This design depicts a reversal of the process – elements of violence utilized in peaceful ways by a new and innocent generation.

I love the design and can see it sparking some good discussion.

Price: $17.00 | Linty Fresh

Farewell to My Concubine T-Shirt

Today’s t-shirt is Farewell to My Concubine, by Kenneth King over at People Like Us Collective. Inspired by Chinese martial arts films, the shirt features a kickass design. I think Kenneth did an excellent job capturing the feel of a martial arts flick. Unfortunately, the shirt runs abit costly, weighing in at $51.75 USD . However, that doesn’t detract from the fact that this is an excellently designed t-shirt.
