T-Shirt Blog Linkup

Yep, it’s time for our weekly shout out of the best blog posts of the week.  This week was a full of quality and narrowing it down to only fifteen was no easy task!  Here’s what we came up with up:

Tiny Trends, Part 6 from Rumplo
Rumplo continues their popular trends series, this time bringing us ‘Peace T-Shirts’, ‘Impossible Shapes’, and ‘The Stereo’.  I have to say I was unfamiliar with the very cool baby blocks shirt that is a part of the ‘Impossible Shapes’ series.  The ‘Peace’ shirts are all fairly basic, but still good.

World Grenade from Shirts on Sale
I’ve always been a sucker for shirts that are heavy on symbolism and this one definitely is.  The sharp, simple, to the point message is very well-executed and Eden provides a very good commentary.  In many ways this shirt would have fit nicely in the Peace series mentioned above.

Tripping Out at Psywear.com from Buy-Tees
Once again Buy-Tees picks a top-notch, interesting company and provides a very solid, informative write-up on them!  This time that company is Psywear.com and they feature some really cool, trippy designs that seem to pop right off the shirt (as trippy designs are meant to do).

Dinosaur T-Shirt from Teecyle
Here’s a t-shirt that is sure to bring back fond childhood memories for all the dinosaur enthusiasts out there (and weren’t we all dinosaur enthusiasts at some point?).  This great shirt features several of the most popular in a bright, sharp rendering with their names next to them.  Bonus points for doing the shirt in one of my favorite colors.

Amazing New Star Wars Hoodies and T-Shirts from Marc Ecko From Tcritic
While we’re walking down memory lane let us not forget to pay homage to Star Wars and the general space obsession many of us had as kids.  Even if you aren’t a fan of the iconic movies and would never actually wear the gear featured here you HAVE to appreciate the incredible design that turns that hoodie into essentially a costume.

Opium Dream from compete-tee-tion
Compete-tee-tion brings us a very terrific featured design this week.  Opium Dream features a dragon – which as compete-tee-tion pointed out has ALOT of personality and is very well-designed – smoking a pipe.  As the smoke rises it bellows around him in the classic intertwined dragon image.

New Black Sea Designs from T-Shirts Around the Internet
I admit I’m a bit of a sucker for an underdog story and based on the information here in seems like Black Sea has had a really rough year.  It’s nice to see them back and in full swing bringing us bright, vivid designs.

T-Shirts From No Star Clothing from T-Shirt Watch
Once again I find myself drawn to the amusing designs of No Star Clothing, and how can one resist when they bring you such interesting wordplay as ‘pour, favor’ and ‘make believe, not war’.  Another ‘bang up’ shirt is the ‘Guns Don’t Kill People (people with mustaches kill people)’ T-shirt.

Collision Theory Rising from The T-Shirt Review
This blog does an excellent job informing us of a terrific new t-shirt and telling us a little bit about the designer Collision Theory.  This shirt is a companion piece to his ‘When Pandas Attack’ t-shirt, definitely a set worth collecting.

New Shirt Monday at Threadless from compete-tee-tion
First off, check out the ‘When Pandas Attack’ t-shirt mentioned above.  Apart from that one, other standouts include ‘My Crony’ which features a very chummy moon and owl and the excellent ‘Microwaves Are Just Too Slow’.  Microwaves depicts Superman heating up his frozen dinner with his x-ray vision.  The kicker is that he’s doing this while sitting on a broken microwave, thus explaining the reason for his predicament in the first place.

Mr. P by Tim Lahan from Hide Your Arms
This is a really good shirt!  It features a pigeon made up to look like Mr.T with his signature hair and facial hair style.  The really big homerun hit comes from the gold necklace with a big ‘P’ on it which really stands out given that the rest of the shirt is in black and white!  I pity the fool who doesn’t buy this shirt!

Down The Barrel from buythistshirt.org
The picture of this shirt is very striking.  It’s done in black and white and it features a very 3d version of someone holding a gun and pointing it directly at whomever might be facing the t-shirt.  My only concern is that it wouldn’t look quite as good in person or actually on someone.  If it does look as good then it’s definitely worth a buy!

Milk shop Gang from Addicteed
Once again I’d like to point out an excellent, 3D, almost black and white print.  This time the print features an eye crying a very unusual color of tears.  More standouts from this blog: the angry, freaky looking baby and the piano skull.  The other designs are definitely worth a look too though.

Billy the Kid T-Shirt from Teecycle
With this blog Teecycle provides us with a very informative set of information regarding Billy the Kid. It is very relevant given that that’s what their feature design is about and even more fascinating given that the shirt ITSELF would be able to tell you that information if you purchased it.  My only complaint about the t-shirt definitely relates to the font which I find difficult to read.  Apart from that it’s great though.

The Ultimate T-Shirt Enthusiast’s Resource from Shirts On Sale
Wow!  As if bringing us a bountiful supply of terrific tees wasn’t enough Shirts On Sale is now launching a sensational new website to help making finding t-shirt links, designs, and websites even easier.  Check out their new site; it definitely sounds like something you’ll want to bookmark.
