Hand On: Swami Safari
I received this piece sometime last week, but due to illness and work I’ve not been able to do the writeup until today. This is a treat of a tee though…
The Swami visits the World Tree Yggdrasil and is introduced to its many inhabitants. The World Tree supports the entire universe on its limbs, its roots gnawed at by the dragon Nidhoggr. The giant rooster Vidofnir is perched at the top of the tree. Both bird and dragon employ Ratatosk the squirrel to pass insults between themselves (and heaven and hell).
The shirt is smooth and soft in light and fine cotton with a slightly roomy neckline at the top. Inside the neckline the story behind the design is quoted together with the company logo.
The design is a nice large print black on the white soft tee base, and the print seems to be of good quality with little touch to it. The detailing is exceptional as you may see from the detail shots after the jump.
This is the first tee from Australian label Swami Safari, and if you like it stay tuned or even subscribe to their monthly teeliveries and receive a 10% discount. The shirt itself is AU$49 in Aussie and NZ, or US$45 to the rest of the world, shipping and taxes included. Payments go through paypal. More images after the jump…
