The Art of Letting Go from A Better Tomorrow

Published March 18, 2009 in Excellent Design T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (0)

The latest winner over at A Better Tomorrow is pretty snazzy. Both the colors used and the design (scroll down for an explanation) are great. It’s printed on American Apparel and will run you 18 Euros at the very German, A Better Tomorrow.

Now the explanation behind the design, which, thankfully, is in english:

This was inspired by the song of Mikaela…which deliberately tackles the ways on how to let go and move on. Its like flapping and throwing up ur wings widely so u can fly high and be free from everything.

Electric Atmosphere from Ubiquity at Palmercash

Published March 15, 2009 in Excellent Design T-Shirts Music T-Shirts T-Shirts. Comments (3)

If I hadn’t just spent a ton of money, I would so be buying this shirt right now, because it’s damn cool. It reminds me somewhat of Funkalicious from Threadless, but I think I like this one even more. The style of the astronaut combined with the color splash behind is excellently done.

This one will run you $23.97 at Palmercash, and may be joining my closet sometime soon.

Introducing Teextile and a Coupon/Competition

Published March 10, 2009 in Excellent Design T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (2)

I never knew about Teextile until today, when I got an email letting me know about their new competition. The site is similar to Teefury, in that everyday they release a new design which is on sale for that day only. The designs all look very sharp, especially today’s, and, in contrast to Teefury, they print on American Apparel–something I much prefer.

I also mentioned a contest/coupon. Similar to DBH’s Friend-a-thon, the winner gets a Macbook Pro, second place gets an iPod touch, and third place (along wth first and second) gets free shirts for a year. Given that I like laptops, but don’t have one, I was wondering if you good folks would be willing to help me out–don’t worry, you get something too. If you use the referral code “troundup” at checkout, or click on any of these links (I think), you get free shipping, and I’m a point closer to a laptop. So yeah, that would be awesome. But either way, check them out, because they have some great shirts.

Wear This Tree from Uneetee

Notice the sweet little rhyme in the post title? Yeah, I’m good. Uneetee is telling me to wear this shirt, so I figure I have to post it up. I like the all-over print, it vaguely reminds me of something I’ve seen on Design by Humans in the past. Sweet detailing on this one though.

It’s $12 for this week only. Ch-Check it out (I’ve been listening to Beastie Boys) at Uneetee. Also, Uneetee coupons are coming soon.

Global View from Simply Complicated

Published March 8, 2009 in Excellent Design T-Shirts T-Shirts. Comments (5)

I wish I could go into space. I think it would be pretty cool. Maybe we’ll have the technology by the time I hit my adult years, or maybe I should just become an astronaut. Either way, this shirt from Simply Complicated is a dime. It’s a simple concept, but the execution is excellent, and it looks damn cool.

You can grab it for $24.99 at Simply Complicated. Stock will be updated soon–I know it says out of stock right now, but they reprinted it.

Does anyone want to be an astronaut with me?

RANDR Launches New Site, and It’s Cool

Published March 7, 2009 in Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (1)

RANDR just came out with some big developments–new shirts, a sale, and largest of all, a brand new website. I dig the new look, it’s very clean and functional, which is what I think is most important. It’s also got great product shots to let you know what you’re getting.

I think the shirt above is one of the new ones. If you can’t see, the text reads “What do you want to do? I don’t know”, repeated over and over. It’s a situation I think we’ve all been in at some time.

EDIT: What am I thinking? I totally forgot the coupon code. Use “iheartrandr” for 25% off your entire order. You also get free shipping on orders over $50.

The Petrol Kid from Linty Fresh

Published March 2, 2009 in Excellent Design T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (2)

Keeping in line with their previous releases, Linty Fresh’s March release is top notch. This is Eric’s (owner Linty Fresh) first collaboration on a shirt, and it turned out very well, and still has that Linty Fresh feel.

Linty Fresh is also holding a spring cleaning sale, so you check both that and The Petrol Kid out at their store.

P.S. Remember a few months ago when gas prices we’re pretty low? Those were the days–I guess the petrol kid has since rolled back into town though.

(March of the) Penguins from Deter

Published February 24, 2009 in Quirky T-Shirts T-Shirts. Comments (0)

So when I said expect posting to resume tomorrow, I actually meant in 5 (or 6?) days. I guess I’m not always the best with punctuality. Buuuut, I really like this shirt from Deter, so I had to post it out. As I’ve said before, animals with clothing/accessories, when done well, are a sure hit with me. I believe this is one of those shirts–I dig the different color shades on all the penguins.

You can grab it for $35 at Deter.

Series 8 Drops over at Fullbleed

Published February 16, 2009 in Excellent Design T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (2)

Rob just emailed me to let me know that he just released series 8 over at Fullbleed. Let me tell you, it’s quite a doozy of a release–the new shirts are awesome. My favorite is definitely the one to the top left, titled Inked, but I would gladly be seen wearing any of the other new designs.

In total, there are 8 new t-shirts, and 4 new silkscreened posters. Go and check them out. Buy multiples to support the making of awesome t-shirts.

CEO Bailout Pageant from No Star

Published February 12, 2009 in Humorous T-Shirts Political T-Shirts T-Shirts. Comments (0)

Let’s fly to congress on our private jets wearing this shirt–I’m sure we could get some money. I didn’t know No Star got political, but I think they did a good job with this shirt. It’s hard hitting in all the right areas. You can pick it up for $24 at No Star.

If you can’t see, the contestants are: Miss Management, Miss Appropriation, Miss Used, Miss Handled, and Miss Applied. It really is a witty shirt.
