Chanoir at DDWN
Dadawan has gone and stocked up with new designs from Chanoir. A lot of these are good digs, and there are tees, hoodies, vests and sweaters to be had. A lot of niceness to be had, tees starting at 34€.
Concrete Hermit Updates
The new bits up in the Concrete Hermit’s place are not to be ignored. Weighing in at £20 a tee, and printed to American Apparel stock these should make for a nice torso cover. They are bound to make you look knife-sharp. The b/wh CH pattern tee is just amazing, and they are doing Burgerman dammit!
Moving Owl Movement
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.
Stocked Limiteds at Hecklewood
Our good friends over at Hecklewood Apparel have stocked up their web store with a couple of fresh goodies. I am all over the limited edition reversible Teenage Flytrap bit which is designed by Sam Bland. There is also the issue of their Total Major White Trash print hitting the cotton in a big way. Head over to score yours…
Hands On: Custom Industries
In the past I have actually been less than dazzled by the works of this label. Up front these tees are something else. They are totally custom and really nice. My favorite of the two items in the care package I received form Custom Industries is by far the cut/sew short sleeved “white horse” tee. The detail is magnificent and its quality excellent. The motif is sorta reminiscent of a puma t-shirt I once had but far nicer. Both shirts have heavy contrast seems around the sleeves, waist and shoulders. The colour schemes are great too. Check out the rest in their online shop, or see the rest of the images after the jump.

Monsieur T’s F/W 2006
Although I am still very busy elsewhere these days I cant believe I never stitched you with these goodies off the fall/ winter rack at Monsieur T. These are some of the nicest pieces around theses days, all made by top notch designers, and playfully compiled. I know I’ve previewed these, but now you know they are out there at least.
Owl Movement: The End of Series 3
You haven’t seen the last of the Owl Movement, but their third series of tees is now complete. There is even a secret hoodie out there. Head over and check it out…
Fullbleed Finally
Rob over at Fullbleed has finally got the f/w 2006 line in stock. There are some smashing good pieces out there, and he has even printed up a heather grey hoodie of the goofily named yet sweet as syrup “Surf’s Up Dudes” design. All pieces are still swinging AA stock, and at a whopping US$16 a tee you probably can’t do much better. These are printed at the highly renowned Mammooth Printshop and should be razor sharp.
Sideline: Jon Burgerman
UK t-shirt outfit Sideline is selling three designs by the terrific Jon Burgerman. These are quite sketch like and down toned, but still damned nice.
The tees are £24, US$40 or 40€ depending on which currency you choose.
Hands On: Monsieur T.
Yesterday I received an envelope in the mail containing the awesome Deactivated tee from Monsieur T. The print is really out there. The illustration is made by Ryan Berkley and is of these street kids leaving some graffiti on a huge deactivated robot. The print runs from the back right along the side and onto the front bottom right of the shirt. The detailing is good and the print quality is excellent.
I don’t recognize the shirt type, but the material seems to be of similar quality to AA, even though the sizing is a bit looser and larger. The label states that the shirt is of pure cotton, is preshrunk and manufactured in the US. The shirt is currently on sale at US$21.25.
Along with the shirt Quentin even sent me some stickers and a button. He also dropped in their fall/ winter 2006 catalogue, and I can tell you right away that you are in for a treat. For more info on their upcoming stuff I urge you to have a look at this High Snobiety article or the Beautiful/Decay magazine issue P.
