Partenaire de Cindez depuis ses débuts, Le collectif Dcontract a toujours su créer des évènements hors du commun : fêtes dans le métro, dans des lieux désaffectés comme une banque, une école, un strip club, barbecues électro sur les bords de seine chaque été…

Aujourd’hui ils passent à la vitesse supérieure en organisant des évènements toujours aussi originaux avec divers partenaires : course de karts à pédales dans le parking du Forum des Halles, course en escarpins pour un site de vente en ligne de chaussures…

Cindez est fier de présenter aujourd’hui ce modèle réalisé d’après les illustrations d’Hansel (une des têtes pensantes de Dcontract), retraçant l’histoire du collectif avec ses objets emblématiques… Il est disponible ici pour homme et femme, dans plusieurs couleurs.

Lundi 30 mars, ils vous préparent un évènement mystérieux du nom de TOI&MOI, dans un lieu encore tenu secret… Pour en savoir plus et être informés de leurs prochains évènements, inscrivez-vous à leur mailing list sur Dcontract.

Inspired by the giant economic clusterf*ck, these designs reflect the current mood here at DISRPT and around most of the country.

Stay tuned …

Shirtcity have had a total makeover of their site and present their new look 2009. The main idea was to simplify, reduce and freshen up the look.

Their own shirt designs are now presented on model pics which give the customer a more realistic idea of their designs. The new shop section serves all those who are interested in simple T-shirt shopping without much fussing at the shirt designer tool.

The classifications in categories easily helps you find your preferred designs. On the other hand, those who want to have a hand on every detail of their shirts have more options at their disposal: designs and texts can be combined and the colours of the design can be changed.

A thorough look at the new features can be found in the Shirtcity blog.

They also welcome and reward criticism about the changes made.

Step into spring with your favorite piece by Naketano!

Anke, Naketano :

“This year is already in full swing – and so is our creative crew at Naketano. In the workshop in Essen they toyed and constructed with fabrics to the limit, resulting in the – familiarly colorful – Naketano Spring Collection 2009!

The designers at Naketano have once again put lots of energy and spirit into creating a whole new range of favorite garments, just for you! A row of perky designs awaits you, of course including the typical Naketano hoodie-style.

Using the palette of colors, the label presents itself as we know it: vivid, fancy, and yet subtle! A rare combination which hardly any other brand can come up with. Starting from fresh turquoise, the palette plunges into dark purples and blue tones, surfacing in the functional Naketano grey”.

Ladies, get ready for a refreshing springtime!

Black Boston Knucklehead ultra-soft, ultra-comfy unisex T-shirt that feels like you’ve owned it for years the moment you put it on, and for years to come.

Poly-Cotton (50% Polyester / 50% Cotton) construction. The Boston themed t-shirts get better with every wash.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee! Wornby dip into the archive for Comic Relief 2009!

T-shirt label Wornby have dipped into their vaults to re-release a vintage replica of classic t-shirt ‘Manila Gorilla’ in support of the latest Red Nose Day campaign for Comic Relief 2009.

The ‘Manila Gorilla’ t-shirt made famous by legendary boxer Muhammad Ali was worn by the athlete himself in the run up to his fight with Joe Frazier on October 1st, 1975 at Areneta Stadium, Manila.

Though defeated by his nemesis five years previously, Ali was back determined to win the World Heavy weight title and show the boxing world who was boss! Providing fantastic theatrical value that Ali was famous for he was again victorious over his rival and aptly named this heated fight ‘The Thriller in Manila’ and mockingly referred to Frazier as the ‘Gorilla’.

For every piece of Wornby’s sporting history sold between March 9th – March 30th Wornby will donate £5 to Comic Relief.

The monies raised will be used by the charity to provide aid and support throughout Africa and the UK benefiting a number of causes including malaria, education and maternal and mental health.

Fondé en 2008, SPACE MONKEYS dénonce une société qui tend vers la manipulation et le contrôle de l’esprit humain.

Condensé de toutes les mouvances urbaines, SPACE MONKEYS évolue dans cette société d’apparence ou il puise son inspiration et ses codes.

SPACE MONKEYS se veut ironique au sens ou il critique ce système de consommation dans lequel il a été produit et dans lequel il évolue.

Par ces visuels provocateurs, il ramène l’Homme à son aspect le plus primitif, et méprise ainsi ces futiles préoccupations humaines…

SPACE MONKEYS EST BIEN PLUS QU’UNE MARQUE, C’EST UN ETAT D’ESPRIT…

At the moment I am collaborating with Created in Birmingham with a charity fundraiser and in the future would like to collaborate more with artists and designers- having already used designs by illustrator Marcroy Smith and printmaker Gwilym Neeld.

Already I aim for Cut-Out’s Autumn/Winter 09 collection to feature designs by illustrators Lee Nutland and Aaron Miller”.

This year laFraise celebrates its 5th birthday with a variety of events and initiatives:

Tobias, laFraise:

“The remix is THE pop cultural technique of today. In music, in design and in fashion, too, reworking existing art has taken the creative evolution to another level.

With our “Remix” line, we at laFraise want to offer our most outstanding winners the opportunity to get their hands on their own designs again and take them from then to today. Printed in an limited edition of 1000 psc., the “Remix” products will come in special packaging and, of course, a special neck print as well.

Collectable and affordable, laFraise Remix is a collection of the best shirt designs published by laFraise within the last 5 years, remixed to match today’s trends. A new laFraise Remix shirt will be release every month in 2009.”

The first “Remix” shirt released is Cuypi´s “The Last Party
“

Beautiful/Decay recently created a lookbook for their Spring/Summer 09 seasons.

The concept behind the shoot juxtaposes evocative objects & optical affects with our apparel, to complement the shirts in abstract ways. Still life images of disco balls, prismatic rings, shag carpets and balloons contrast the light, color and texture of the shirt graphics.

See the apparel line come to life in new and unexpected ways! Photography by Luke Stettner.

The Mustache Brigade collection - available at Bloomingdales and MetroparkUSA - prides itself on being the antagonist of conventional “cookie-cutter” casual wear:

They have just started adding new tees for summer and first up they have a new brand called Outrage which has a started very strong with 4 Marvel T-Shirts.

Also to kick things off we are offering all customers 20% this month using the coupon code BLGMARCH20 so I hope you can help us spread the word.
