- a guide to short sleeves

KIKS TYO

KIKS TYO
Check out these killer bits over at Tokyo based venue KIKS TYO’s international store. Tees are ¥5,500, and are getting ripped off the rack in a rude manner, so get them in a hurry.

Finally ser-vice.

News at Owl Movement

Regretfully due to personal issues and practical limitations this site has lacked updates for quite some while. We have however received a handful of shirt samples that are pending for review, and I’ll try to get these up there soon.
Owl Movement
The guys over at Owl Movement in Tampa FL have just dropped their latest series of tees. These four shirts are printed on American Apparel stock and the “Great Moops Battle of ‘79″ design is even done on their tri-blend heather grey stock which is super soft and really nice. I have a couple of items from the owls in my closet, and they are really neatly printed and of superior quality. Get yours for a mere US$20 per tee.

Artist-Shirts from 2K

2k_shirts.jpg

Founded 1998 in Japan, 2K, a small company whose name was bestowed by Experimental Jetset, is totally anti-mass marketing. 2K is for people who are bored with the market and merchandise that has been controlled by mega mass-marketing brands. “We have become determined to introduce the best and most unique artworks and artists to the global youth culture network through t-shirts that we recognize as one of the most informative mediums. Instead of spreading the name 2K, we attempt to gain recognition by the people through our vision of presenting artistic uniquities by artists we have met and become fond of”.
The artists of theses Tees are: swedish Street Artist Carl Nyman, Design Studio Buro Destruct, London Design- and Illustration Service Nice, Tomoo Gokita from Tokyo and Alex Rich. You can get them online in DE, AT and CH at Clear-Cut-Case.de.

Hecklewood

Hecklewood
Check out new and discounted odds and ends from the premium apparel designers of Hecklewood of Portland Oregon. These guys come highly recommended.

New Fright Rags

Fright Rags
Don’t miss out on the new horror prints from the very dark t-shirt tombs of Fright Rags. They are rolling out at US$15 a piece on pure black heavyweight preshrunk cotton. If you enter “FRIGHT30″ at checkout you will receive a slash of 30% off your order.

Jarrski & Hutch

Jarrski and Hutch
We usually do not cover stuff made through Spreadshirt due to uncertainties about print quality. Nevertheless I would like to direct your eyes toward the designs in the Jarrski & Hutch T-Shop. These are amongst the better text based designs I have seen lately, and they are printed on AA stock so you know the base is good. They are quite pricey though at just under 30€, seeing as they are printed on demand. If any of you have any experiences with Spreadshirt quality please step up and share your comments.

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.

The Black Sea

Black Sea
I know there are a lot of octopus and such designs out and about, but I still think you should have a look at the latest offerings from Orlando, FL indie venue The Black Sea. They print on AA and run US$16 a tee, which is cheap as cheese.

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.
