This week we noticed that our favorite blogs were covering a diverse set of t-shirts, t-shirt companies, and t-shirt designs.  We usually emphasize just our favorites and what we consider to be some of the top designs and blog posts about the designs.  We stuck with that again this week, but with an added emphasis on diversity.  We hope you enjoy!

Ontour F/W 08 “Cosmic Crack” from addic[tee]d
This blog post from Addic[tee]d does a fantastic job highlighting a t-shirt label called ‘Ontour’ which focuses on Sci-Fi, space related apparel.  This is definitely a niche market, but anyone can appreciate the terrific designs.

Apliiq it on Your Blank T-shirts and They will be Less Boring from Cottonable
Cottonable does an excellent job explaining what Appliq is and how it works.  It’s a pretty cool trend and it really does spice up more traditional t-shirts.  Check it out!

A Very S.A.D. T-Shirt from Hide Your Arms
This blog features an excellent review of a t-shirt that is heat sensitive.  When it’s warm the sun shines through the clouds and everything’s great.  When it’s cold the sun disappears and clouds take over.  Very cool!

Beach Ballin from Shirt Find
This is a design that features a mostly two-tone front with a light blue bottom and a white top.  The kicker is that in the context of the design the blue is the ocean and there’s a very colorful beachball floating on top with clouds further up.

Tiny Trends, Part 5 from Rumplo
Rumplo continues their tiny trends series with this blog.  The reason we wanted to feature it though was because of their excellent write up and the great designs they picked for the ‘T-shirt Tuxedo’ trend.

More Dirty Laundry from Buy-Tees
One of the most avant garde companies out there is definitely Dirty Laundry which uses stains to create their t-shirt designs.  In this blog write up we learn more about their process and technique.  This increased knowledge may or may not be a good thing depending on your perspective.  Either way it’s cool though.

Oddica $10 Sale from T-Shirts Around the Internet
With so much attention on Threadless and their sale, how could we not show a little love to Oddica as well?  Oddica has some really cool designs (some of which we featured in our last blog) and this blog does a great job directing our attention to them.  Check out the comments for a promotional code!

Reserve LA/Colver Photo Exhibit Tee from The Fat Seagull
The Fat Seagull points us toward one very cool shirt with this one!  The design features a skeletal hand with the finger touching a finger of a VERY realistic looking ‘normal’ hand.  As every artist knows the human hand is one of the most difficult things to re-create and this design does a supurb job.

Jimmy..Is That You? from Shirts On Sale
This design is so well done that it’s almost sad.  It features four anthropomorphized pumpkins gathered around a fresh, steaming pie (guess what kind of pie).  It’s a pretty cute idea and well-executed.  Great!

Babymother Tee from Tee Junkie
This blog points us toward one of the most memorable, amusing maternity shirts that we’ve ever seen.  It definitely goes way beyond the discrete colors and bulk that many maternity shirts employ and instead relishes the idea of pregnancy in a very amusing way.

Introducing Andy Monsters from T Round Up
This informative blog gives us the scoop on a very cool new line called ‘AndyMonsters’.  This line features bright colors with simple, yet beautifully done monster designs.  The kicker is that 100%(!) of the proceeds go to charity!

Stop Animal Testing from teecycle
This shirt is straight up hilarious!  Given the title you would think that it would think that it would be a shirt about the ethical treatment of animals…well it is…sorta.  Check it out!

Come Spy With Us from Iloveyourtshirt
How can anyone not love a Trojan Horse t-shirt?  Especially when it features such a quirky design and puts so much emphasis on the tailend of the giant horse.

Sharpshirter’s Next Level Humor from Cottonable
This design points us toward a new line that has an emphasis on humor AND design.  So many t-shirt lines focus on only one or the other, but this line truly nails both!  Definitely worth checking out.

BustedTees: $14.99 New Someecards Tees from Shirts On Sale
Retro designs with amusing captions, what’s not to love about these terrific BustedTee designs?  The fact that they’re on sale makes them all the sweeter!
