Bernos

June 11th, 2009

African themed graphic tee designers at bernos have put out new designs including one called Buna with traditional Ethiopian coffee pots and cups.

Bernos

Nolawi, bernos:

“Our aim was to reflect that our culture, the coffee ceremony is more than a “coffee Break” the ritual is an expression representing a spiritual time of the day to look at our blessings and give thanks to our elders”.

Buna Tshirt, on silver American Apparel tee is sold for $20.95.

African Warrior:

Bernos

This design called African Warrior has the motif of a shield and spear themed in the look of Masai shields.

The tee is on American Apparel and is available here.

Chimpogo

June 11th, 2009

Chimpogo

Chimpogo is an online creative community and ongoing t-shirt design competition.

The site allows members of the chimpogo community to upload designs and illustrations they’d like to see featuring on t-shirts. Members then score and blog about the uploaded designs.

Based in large part on the member’s feedback the judges pick a design each week to be printed as a T-shirt and the winning designer is awarded £500 to go with the joy of seeing their design become an actual t-shirt.

Chimpogo

The site is very straightforward. From the homepage you can click through to the “Submit a Design” page or navigate to the shop where you can check out the entire range of Chimpogo T-shirts. Clicking on a design will take you to a “Rate A Design” page where you can give the design a rating of between “0” (pretty useless) and “5” (love it). If you love it so much that you’d like to buy it if it gets printed you can click “I want it” and Chimpogo will send you an email if it gets printed.

Chimpogo

Anyone who loves t-shirts and has an interest in visual design. At the It’s a pretty even mix between guys and girls with the age range typically 17-30. About half their visitors come from the UK. Their other major markets are the US and Europe, although they’ve also sold t-shirts to customers as far afield as China and New Zealand.

Phillip , Chimpogo

“We were inspired by both the success and shortcomings of various clothing brands on the web, in particular threadless who pioneered the online t-shirt competition model in the US.

Chimpogo

Being a t-shirt obsessive and having ordered numerous t-shirts from overseas websites I was frustrated with the variable quality and poor customer service often encountered and believed there was an opportunity to harness the amazing community of creative’s and designers based in London, UK to provide something better.

Chimpogo

So far feedback has been overwhelmingly positive (although we’ve always got areas where we can improve) our customers love the quality of the t-shirt and the softness of the print (a big thing for us).

Chimpogo

Customers who buy the t-shirt love that they have been a part of the creative process, it’s their comments, scoring and support for the design that has ultimately led to the t-shirts creation, which gives customers a real buzz, they don’t get with a product bought from the high street. We print on 100% cotton American Apparel tshirts (we like the cut and feel and the variety of colours).

Chimpogo

In 12 months time we hope to still be having as much fun as we’ve had since we launched Chimpogo. We’d like to increase the prize money and increase the amount of print runs we do each week. We’re also looking forward to partnering with some amazing brands to offer even better opportunities for our community of designers.

Music Mountain

June 11th, 2009

One of their beloved former interns, Lyndsey Lesh, recently designed the shirt “Music Mountain” during her stay at Beautiful/Decay.

MUSIC MOUNTAIN” BY LYNDSEY LESH
Sasha, Beautiful/Decay:

“We were blown away by Lyndsey’s drive & talent and one of her final projects before venturing out into the great, wide, world was to design June’s T-Shirt of the month! (In case you haven’t heard, we are releasing a limited edition, 300 print run T-Shirt in a unique color way each month on the online shop for 33% off retail price- $20 a shirt!).

MUSIC MOUNTAIN” BY LYNDSEY LESH

Lyndsey’s illustration style can best be described as whimsical works that depict a world of idiosyncratic fancy, sweetness and charm. Her images have a soft spoken quality that reflect the hand-rendered application of her materials. Her shirt, “Music Mountain” depicts a sincere DJ atop a landscape of stereo equipment, musical gear and chubby hands holding records, drum sticks and microphones”.

Squishi, clothing company

June 5th, 2009

Squishi

Squishi is a clothing company which is run out of our studio in Wiltshire, UK. All of their items are printed manually (by hand), on our 6 colour press.

Will, “Squishi:

“As we print all the shirts we sell ourselves we can make sure they come out exactly how we want them to & if something isn’t how we want it, we can make tweaks & adjustments accordingly.

Squishi

We take alot of pride in the products we produce so we strive to bring you incredibly high quality, original, great looking shirts, at a fair price.

Squishi

Our products are priced fairly & based on how much time/effort/money we put into making them so awesome! But most importantly they are priced on the quality of the product, which is exceptional.

Squishi

Here are some snippets of (the many) words people have written about us:

”Producing a range of art, monster & creature themed prints on tees, Squishi has a collection of truly original, graphically pleasing tees.” – Alt Fashion Magazine.

”I instantly fell in love with the tees in the Squishi store! There are currently 9 designs available at Squishi and each is unique and whimsical in its own way.” – Tee Junction.

Squishi

”When you see these t-shirts one thing is clear; these guys love monsters and weird creatures. And I guess, those little funny creatures must love these guys back. My overall impression of the store? Great designs with super cool compositions and the sweetest characters, lovely colors and quite reasonable prices.” – T-shirts Around the Internet.

”Ding! Ding! Ding! I think we have a winner!

I’m really, really, impressed with the design selection that’s available from Squishi. Its great to see a company like this in the UK.” – Hide Your Arms.

Squishi

Squishi

Artists:

Our shirts are designed by some of the most unique & talented Artists/Illustrators we can find, from all over the place! We have had artists such as Drew Millward, Luke Drozd & Keeley Carrigan working with us to create some excellent shirts designs. We do our research!

Information about every Artist we work with can be found in our Artists section.

We use American Apparel shirts for all of our designs. This is because… well, there are a number of reasons but most importantly:

They are all made in the US in a huge 7 floor factory in downtown LA, by mainly migrant workers. But all of their workers get paid at least 2 x California’s minimum wage, which is alot better pay than they would get working elsewhere in the US! The workers also have pretty cool bonuses such as subsidized health insurance, subsidized meals, free bus rides, company bikes, back massages while they work & in house english lessons!

Squishi

I would like to see another clothing manufacturer be able to say that about their working conditions!

Squishi

But mainly because they manufacture the highest quality, best fitting, all round best blank garment, with the brightest colour choices available anywhere.”
