Hello, I have Sweaty Pits.

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

I’m not sure how I feel about these color changing shirts. They are basically big, wearable mood rings. When your body shifts in temperature your shirt changes color.
Sounds super cool at first, right?

Pimp the Obama

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

A little late as far as election time goes, but I just stumbled across this shirt and had to post it. As far as Obama shirts go, this has to be my favorite. I love that they put comically large glasses and a chain on Obama, all while he’s wearing his dorky little smile.
Adorable.
It’s amazing [...]

There’s a Zombie in my Shirt

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

It’s all the fun of wearing a mask, minus the ability to see!

Leave it to the Comic Con convention to hand out promotional shirts like this one. Used to promote Resident Evil, these shirts were given out to potential fans. Somehow fans were supposed to flip their shirts inside out, pull the bottom over their [...]

Save the Ta-Tas!

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Julia Fiske is no stranger to breast cancer. After two members of her immediate family underwent mastectomies due to the disease, she decided to put her creativity to good use. Hence the bold t-shirts sporting slogans like “save the ta-tas” and “Save a life, grope your wife”. Not leaving out any form of cancer, she [...]

The promotional shirts from your youth are now coming back for a second swing in the alternative fashion world. Thrift Store Chic [...]

We’re All Just Bugs Drawn to the Light

Thursday, October 1st, 2009

Philips has perfected the light up t-shirt. With their LumaLive technology, they were able to make a fabric that responds to either sounds or programming to create a dynamic advertisement. While the shirt lights up, the fabric still feels, looks and acts like regular cotton t-shirt! (Check out the LumaLive promo video).
If light up shirts [...]
