Geometry T-Shirt from Threadless


November 4th, 2008

Threadless has a new shirt out called “The Discovery of Geometry” which we felt would make an interesting shirt to blog about.  Here are a few images:

Geometry T-Shirt From Threadless

As you can see, this is a very ‘busy’ design that gives the impression of movement even when the wearer is still.

These types of abstract renderings make for some very interesting analysis.  The first thing I thought of when I saw this design was that it reminded me of the front of a very elaborate jukebox.  One also has to wonder what the significance of the eyes on either side of the design is.  I’m also fascinated by the snake/worm like creatures toward the middle of the shirt which look like they have a cross between a fork tongue and a fishhook coming out of their mouths.

Obviously the focal point of the design though is the gold triangular shape in the upper center of shirt.  Given its placement, and that fact that it is the only part of the design in color, it takes on an almost sacred air.  All around this is an extremely fascinating t-shirt and the designer, YASLY (Danny Jones), should be very proud of it.

The Colorful Gardner


October 21st, 2008

We found this creative shirt over at Uneetee:

Colorful Gardner

Based on the pictures, it looks like this tee design starts on the front and wraps around to the back, which is a pretty cool way to print it if that is the case.

Designs like this always make me ask questions.  For example is the space person spraying the flowers with color because they would otherwise be in black and white OR is it such that these already colorful flower require colorful water/liquid to grow properly?  Of course the big question is why it’s a spaceperson spraying them at all.  Of course I’m probably missing the whole point by over-analyzing.  In any case, check out the t-shirt.

The Weekend of the Spheres


October 20th, 2008

We have been a fan of Shirt.Woot! for quite some time and we are way overdue for showing them some t-shirt love. We found this amusing shirt over at Shirt.Woot! it’s called ‘The Weekend of the Spheres’:

The Weekend of the Spheres T-Shirt

As always half the pleasure of a Shirt.Woot! shirt comes in the reading of the accompanying write up, so don’t miss it.

The concept is that the planets have to keep their moons and other spheres in check lest they wonder off or get into any other trouble.  All those leashes and the harried expression on the planet’s face will definitely resonate with owners of multiple pets (or children!).

Dead Shred for the Halloween Hipsters


October 19th, 2008

We’ve found another cool, seasonally themed t-shirt coming from Threadless:

Dead Shred T-Shirt

This is definitely a fun shirt.  The idea of a skateboarding mummy is really amusing, and hey, if he whipes out and gets a few scrapes he’s already all bandaged up.  Definitely a great selection if you’re looking for a lighter spirited Halloween shirt.
