Rock Beats Paper T-Shirt

Published February 3, 2008 in Humorous T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (1)

Why does paper beat rock? I’ve always wondered- it doesn’t make sense. Unfortunately, this one is also sold out in everything except S and XL. I’m really hoping they reprint.

Roots City T-Shirt by Congress Clothing

Published in Artsy T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (1)

There are a lot of t-shirts with similar themes (cities + nature), but I think this one from Congress Clothing is one of the better ones out there. Unfortunately it’s sold out in everything except XS and XL, but, who knows – maybe they’ll reprint it. It seems like there’s a good chance, as the sale page says that new colors of the design are coming soon.

Into the Woods from Naive Clothing

Published January 30, 2008 in Excellent Design T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (0)

The woods can be frightening; at every turn there are hidden dangers. However the woods can be beautiful as well because with every hidden danger also lies a hidden beauty. In this life, we will find ourselves lost in the woods. One day we will wake up, look around, take a deep breath and realize the life we are living is foreign and unfamiliar. This is the woods. When we get lost in the woods it is easy to focus on the fear, but when we focus on the fear we forget the beauty. This shirt is a reminder to take a second glance for the beauty in the danger.

I like the stripes coming down from the collar. And it’s on sale. Enjoy.

I Wish I Were
Genius design from Ian Leino. I haven’t been impressed with Threadless’ offerings lately, but this is one that will bring me back (or will at least get a purchase out of me).

Newcastle T-Shirt from Burn Suburbia

Published January 26, 2008 in Excellent Design T-Shirts Printed on American Apparel T-Shirts. Comments (3)

Burn Suburbia bases all their designs on individual cities from around the world. I featured one before based on Phoenix, but this time I decided to move on to the UK with this Newcastle themed shirt showcasing a magpie – which I’m told is a tradition symbol of Newcastle. This one isn’t released yet, but it’s available for pre-order and will ship in early February.

The Tiger Rider from Design by Humans

Design by Humans continues their trend of superb designs – it’s another black shirt (with foil!) I actually like. The shine from the foil adds some extra kick-assery.

Remember that Design By Humans Coupon.

More Scared of You T-Shirt

It kind of reminds me of the Threadless tee with the cyclops and a pair of glasses (noclops maybe?). I like it. Check out the entire site, Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction have some great tees.

Tee Vs Tee – A Good Way to Find New Shirts

Published in T-Shirts. Comments (0)

Ever heard of kitten wars? It pit two kittens against each other, with the user voting and thereby determining the cutest. Tee vs Tee uses this same approach with t-shirts. Right now it has over 2,000 shirts, with new features such as leaderboards/categories being rolled out all the time. I recommend you check it out – it’s both a great time waster and a way to discover new shirts.

Darwin Kick from Threadless

Yeah…I posted about two mainstream competitions in a row, so maybe you’re getting bored – but – I like both these shirts (this and the DBH one), so I think they’re worth mentioning. I just wish Threadless had printed this on their new custom tees, and not those FOTL 50/50s that I hate.

Remember to use that Threadless Code for $3 off (as soon as they start working again).
