New Handsome Sausage

Handsome Sausage
Sporting five new designs The Handsome Sausage has redone its website into a crazy colour extravaganza. I really love the Cro-Mag-Non shirt, and they print on AA so you know the stuff. The prices range from US$20 to US$27 and payments are safe through PayPal.

Switched Clothing

Switched Clothing
Check out these diglets from Switched Cloting. Ranging from illustrated designs to geeky text based prints these are worth a glance at least. They are printed on Am. Apparel and move for a marginal US$17 a pop.

Tank Theory

Some nice and crazy stuff from Tank Theory. The art director, Zach Johnsen, says: “Our aesthetic is a bit on the brutal side. Everything we produce is slightly demented, unnerving, or outright scary.” In Germany, Austria and Switzerland available online at Clear Cut Case.

Beautiful Decay Stocks Freegums

Freegums
The Beautiful/Decay Store recently stocked up on some of the wonderful reversible tees from Freegums of Miami USA. These are believed to be printed on AA stock and being printed on the inside and outside give you a 2 to 1 ratio on shirt design, saving space in your Ikea dresser. At about US$35 a tee you can do the math yourselves.

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…
Swami Safari

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…

All Jelly No Toast

All Jelly No Toast
Out of Buffalo, NY they are rolling out discounted orders of Bean Dip and Poketo tees over at All Jelly No Toast. The shirts go for a handsome US$19.95 a piece, and keeping in mind that these are top quality products this is quite the catch.

They also have some of the beautiful Poketo wallets at a killer discount, and they do Bean Dip Hoodies as well.

ShirtStain Sale

Shirtstain Sale
Here is another way of getting you hands on sweet and cheap cotton. ShirtStain are currently rolling out their business at US$20 for two pieces of AA goodness. I urge you to look at the “How to build a Killer Robot” at least. and there are a lot of other good bits out there, too.

Still Going Ape

Go Ape Shirts
Smallish newcomer label Go Ape Shirts are really getting settled. They have just rolled out three new shirts, and their website is looking rather sharp. I think the “Pillow Fight Club” bit is fun, but sorta goofy and the “Amsterdam by Night” shirt by MAKI Ontwerp en Illustratie is looking fresh. The pick of this litter though is by far Olly Moss’ “Evolver” design based on the superior Beatles album Revolver. This is one of these designs that only comes along once in a blue Amsterdam moon. The Beatles meets Planet of the Apes. GO APE!

Shirts are US$18 on AA.

Moving Owl Movement

Owl Movement Sale
It is not the largest discount in t-shirt retail history, but it is a decent chunk. All tees at Owl Movement, which is one of my very favorite setups are currently rolling out at a 2 for US$36 rate. For the slow ones that is US$18 a piece, which isn’t bad for this kind of quality. Note that shipping costs are not included.

Lucha Workshop

Lucha Workshop have some great t-shirts for sale. The prints have kind of a childish innocence about them which makes them so adorable. They aren´t even expensive, only about $20 a shirt and they´re printed on American Apparel.
