Owl Movement: Four New
Good news! The long anticipated four new designs from Owl Movement are now available
There are a lot of small t-shirt businesses around and about the internet, but not many are as quality oriented as the likes of the Florida based label called Owl Movement. They have just added four new shirt to their line of clothing, and these are no exception to the rule. The designs are done by Jon Burgerman, Skwak, Shawnimals and Cristopher Lee. If you know not of these click the links to educate yourselves.
It is hard to pick favorites among these designs but the Skwak design really stands out. There is a similar design by the same artist at Beautiful/Decay you might also want to check out. I do love the little ninjas on the Shawnimals tee, too.
As far as shirt and print quality is concerned my experiences is that you should be safe with the Owls. They print on the nicest of American Apparel’s stock, and the screening is really good. The shirts are $20 a piece and they ship through USPS.
Where is Hide Your Arms Hidden?
This is just a notice to tell you that our favorite sleeved apparel site Hide Your Arms has been down for quite a while now due to hosting/ server issues. I’ve been in touch with Andy who promises me that HYA will be up as soon as possible, and that he is not about to give it up or anything.
More info on this page at HYA’s MySpace. Good luck, Andy!
!UPDATE: Hide your arms is now back in business. YAY!
Hands on: Hecklewood Heckled Hoodie
I recieved an awsome sleeveless hoodie in the mail yesterday, all the way from Portand, Oregon and our good friends over at Hecklewood Apparel.
These pictures are actually from the Hecklewood website, as I haven’t got around to shoot any myself yet. They give a pretty good impression of the product at hand though.
It is a soft grey heather hoodie with an awsome large colorful skateboard print on it. They guys at Hecklewood have gone and cut the sleeves off it, which is just awsome. The print crosses the zipper, which is a quality I really like in zippered hoodies these days. It is very eighties, which puts it at the height of fashion, and large and shiny aviator sunglasses are must with it.
It is available for both genders, and you can find it in the Hecklewood Boutique in Portland Oregon, or online at the Hecklewood Apparel web store via PayPal.
Shure Shot: 2K
Sometimes I know I’m shopping for a new tee, but I don’t feel like checking into hundreds of places to get one…
With 2K t-shirts this isn’t even an issue. They stock a massive quantity of decent t-shirt designs from a large list of artists. With names like Yoshitomo Nara, Tom Sachs, Yoko Ono and Experimental Jetset in the fridge you’re bound to find something you like.
The shirts are genereally US$35 a pop, and they also have Grab Bags if you dare.
