Personal Universe T-Shirt from Imaginary Foundation

It appears that in the previous year (and some months) Imaginary Foundation has decided to release a new sublimation style of shirts. As far as I can tell, this involves some wicked all-over prints. I chose one which is pretty...

Conventions T-Shirt from Yonil

Conventions is a very nice tee from the designer Yonil. It also happens to be on sale (along with all of Yonil’s other designs). I love the mix of geometric patterns–makes for a very interesting aesthetic. You can buy the...

7 Hills T-Shirt from Our Kid Apparel

The obligatory “I don’t usually like branded t-shirts” disclaimer goes here. But…I really like the simple geometry of this shirt, so I’m willing to make an exception. The design is based on the 7 Hills of Sheffield (I don’t know...

Perception T-Shirt from Ugmonk

As with all Ugmonk t-shirts, this design is pretty simple (in a good way). It’s a nice, clean design; and I always love things that mess with your perception. You can buy it for $26.00 at the Ugmonk store, and...

Back in early November (yeah, I’m slow), I got an email about a new t-shirt from a guy named Brett Amory, available at INDVSL. I dug the shirt, put it away in the “to be reviewed” folder, and then promptly...

While this shirt is a bit of a departure from most of the designs I post on troundup, I nonetheless dig it very much. Much like Tom Haverford’s fascination with “the shapes” on Parks and Recreation, I find myself thoroughly...

Glyph from Rise and Resist Apparel (RandR)

I know it’s been awhile since my last post, and for that I apologize, and shamelessly blame mid-terms. I’m happy to submit this relatively new release from RandR though. I love how they’ve managed to incorporate their name, but at...

Rain Drops and Rhombuses from Plink Design

Beauty in simplicity. As the title suggests, the design is comprised entirely of rain drops and rhombuses, which are put together in an excellent fashion to form an excellent shirt. This is the first of a series from Joseph Mueller...

Melvin from Rhetoric

“Bird by bird.” “Show don’t tell.” Melvin is a literal interpretation of the streaming conscious. It is an ink drawing on paper that has adapted nicely to the t-shirt medium. Its position on the shirt invites visual curiosity. I really...

The Chapter 12 Tee from Paper Root Clothing

Here’s a shirt from a company, Paper Back Clothing, that I’ve never written about before. I came upon them through Rumplo, and I’m really glad I did, because they’ve got some sick designs going on over there. There are a...

4 — New Shirt of the Week from Rise and Resist (RandR)

Rise and Resist (or RandR, I’m not sure which they prefer) have been pumping out some really great designs every week. Before they were a little hit and miss with me, but now I seem to be getting hit fairly...

Fresh Tee Mondays Episode 1

Have you ever noticed pretty much every company out there releases new t-shirts on Monday? Writing about all of these separately gets kind of old, so I figured I would lump these together into one category, which I will call...
