Britta urged us to check out Errorwear all the way back at the top of the month. Now that we've gotten off our asses and actually given it a look, we feel horrible for sleeping on it for so long. Could you ever find it in your heart to forgive us?

This one ought to appeal to the corporate drones and office supply fetishists alike. I'm not sure if office supply fetishists exist, but I'm sure the internet will provide me with that answer a bit later.
Hole Punch is everything I like in a shirt. It's simple, original and well implemented. Then again, everything Sick Squid does fits those criteria. Still, I could only choose one to run, so this is the one you're going to get.
P.S. The lovely Michelle Koen pointed us in the direction of this one. Slainte Michelle!

Dear Emo Kids,
Quit sulking all the goddamn time. Seriously, cut it the fuck out. All of your non-emo friends and relatives make fun of you for being all mopey. Like, behind your back and stuff. We totally agree that talking shit behind people's backs is a dick move. Still, we're only telling you because we care, man.
Oh, hey... While we've got your attention, we'd like to note that you need a new hoodie. Yours is getting kind of funky. This one looks pretty nice. Dude, it's got a heart on it. You like clothing with hearts on it, don't you? Also, the zipper front will keep you from messing up your carefully coifed hair. Hey, we're just trying to look out for you...
Yours Truly,
Preshrunk
Update nullsleep and Jake Nickell both wrote in to point out that this hoodie looks a lot like Bleeding Heart over at Threadless. Jake also reminded us that Threadless is having a sale until February 1st. Three of their designs are going for $8.00, while the rest are going for $10.00. That's cheap!

I'm sort of waiting for Hello Minor to get served with a cease and desist for their ballsy Smoking Mickey tee. It's not that I want them to, it's just that it sort of seems inevitable. I only expect that outcome because they're aping on Disney's most recognizable and fiercely guarded icon.
You know, the one that's so guarded by the Disney Corporation that they successfully lobbied for extension of US Copyright law. If you like the shirt, you should probably buy it soon. I'm just sayin', that's all...

Sorry This Old T-Shirt fans... Our most popular weekly feature is on a hiatus for yet another week. We're spending some time in the lab testing out a few concepts and techniques for future articles. TOT should be back on either the first or second week of February.
I know some of the do-it-yourselfers are chomping at the bit for a new project. Thankfully, Mike Hofstadter pointed us in the direction of 6 DPI from UK design crew Less Rain. 6 DPI is an interesting concept, in that it's a wearer customizable t-shirt. It starts out as a black tee with a 70 x 30 white pixel grid printed on the front. From there, you're encouraged to take a black sharpie and black out parts of the grid to create your own design.
For the timid, Less Rain has cooked up a bunch of really great designs and offers a handy PDF to help get you started. But honestly, if you're going to order a DIY shirt, what's the fun of going prefab?

Sometimes culture jammers can get a bit too self-righteous. Sure, TV is brainwashing the masses into mindless drones and making us culturally vapid. Yes, it is unfortunate. I happen to subscribe to the theory that as long as one is aware that the wool is being pulled over their eyes, they can always work at pulling it back.
This tee over at Are You Generic appeals to the dissatisfied teenage punk inside me. I'm not really sure how using my credit card to purchase this shirt will "stick it to the man", but I guess it's worth a shot.

This is very American of me to say, but I never have understood the appeal of Marmite. The Vitamin B enriched spread of brewer's yeast extract never really appealed to me. In fact, I think it tastes horrible. It's nowhere near as awful as Vegemite, but it's pretty close.
Now, I know the rookie's mistake is to drop a thick layer of spread, but I've never done that. Thanks to a friend who introduced me to the ritual of Marmite consumption, I've always spread it on in the thinnest possible layer. Still, out of the three times I've given it a shot it's always made me feel utterly sick. It just doesn't sit right on my stomach.
For those of you who happen to think I'm crazy for hating on Marmite, I've sniffed out this tee just for you. It's perfect for wearing around the house while munching on a Marmite and cheese sandwich, or so I've been told...

Kozyndan are a husband and wife team of illustrators who drop some of the craziest art I've ever seen. Salarymen dressed up as schoolgirls. A tidal wave of bunny rabbits. Animal orgies. An army of Lucky Cats marching down a deserted street. I'm pretty sure both Kozy and Dan are mildly insane, but to create great art you sort of have to be.
I really dig the simplicity of their Bunny Headphones shirt. Since I'm a fan of the ear goggles, this makes the cockles of my heart warm. Besides, my girlfriend called it "adorable". Since she's a better meter of what the ladies in the audience might dig, I thought I'd go ahead and run it. Como se dice "pussywhipped"?
P.S. While you're there, do stop in and check out their online gallery. It's chock full of some wonderfully warped stuff.

Preshrunk reader David McCreath pointed out that Brian Wood's Northern Boy is having a Valentine's Day sale. Two shirts of your choice are going for the low, low price of $22.00 - which includes shipping. Sweet Jesus! Sure, his catalog is limited to 6 shirts, but they're all really great.
Brian Wood is best known for Channel Zero, a beautiful and solidly written illustrated novel. He's also done work for Rockstar, Vertigo/DC and Punk Planet. I have no idea how much he charges for illustrations, but I'd kill to have him do a proper header graphic for the site. Maybe one day we can afford him...
Update: Between the link from this site and a mention on Warren Ellis' blog, the sale had to end a bit earlier than expected. That said, the shirts are still a steal at $15.00 a piece.

Santa Barbara's The Human Effort has a freakin' sweet series of tees. They've gone and made a shirt with a different bit of art for each letter of the alphabet. All of the drawings are quality stuff, but the ant has to be my favorite. There's something about an ant being paired with the word anarchy that makes my naughty bits tingle.

Be thankful you live in the US. I live in Australia tried to order a Veer t-shirt, but the quote on shipping was $US40. Given that most online stores ship t-shirt for around $US10, this seems a little steep.

For the LDS peeps in the house, this one's sure to be a hit at your next noncommittal make-out party. As someone who's dated one, this shirt sums up Mormons nicely. The Church is pretty much the enemy of fun. Alcohol, caffeine and premarital sex are strictly prohibited.
So what does that leave you with? Virgin Pina Coladas, Sierra Mist and holding hands. Bollocks to that. I'd rather take my chances in hell than give up Newcastle for the rest of my life. Sorry Heavenly Father.

Were someone to ask me what my favorite magazine is, I'd say Giant Robot without hesitation. They're only a quarterly, but they've managed to cover almost every imaginable facet of Asian pop culture since 1994.
I met the GR staff at a zine fest back in Orange around 1996. All of them were really nice folks who seemed really happy that their humble little mag had struck a chord with so many people. They gave me a whole mess of stickers and a couple back issues in trade for my folded over little eight page rag. I thought that they were gods at the time... and in a way, I still sorta do.
Last year, Giant Robot released their 10th anniversary shirt - a breezy logotype done up in Helvetica. If they had a size larger than XL, I'd get one for all the swag they hooked me up with back in the day. Even if my mom did "accidentally" throw it all out a week after I met them...

I wouldn't go so far as to call the Notorious B.I.G. a modern day Che Guevara, but his impact on hip hop has elevated him to icon status. That's why I'm in love with this number over at Turntable Lab. It's a visual mash up of Che and Biggie that seems to urge people to rise up and take back hip hop. His somber stare acting as a call to arms. Pleading with you to take back an artform that's lost its edge and has basically become pop music.
Of course, I could just be overreacting and it might just be a clever t-shirt...

If you've spent any time doing heavy print or web design, you'll appreciate this one from the peeps over at Veer. Lorem ipsum is the oldest example of what's known in publishing circles as as "dummy" or "placeholder" text. Allegedly copied from Cicero's De finibus bonorum et malorum, Lorem ipsum and its derivatives have been in use since the 1500's.
For any of you who happen to know a design geek with an upcoming birthday, this would make a lovely present. Anything in Veer's online store would, actually. Seeing as how we're a t-shirt weblog though, we've sorta have to give the apparel a higher recommendation.

Much to the dismay of my Christian friends, I'm not too much of a Jesus guy. It's not that I'm not into his message or anything, it's just that religion was never my cup of tea. Besides, I've never much cared for folks who get uppity people for not believing in a dude. Even if the dude in question did have some groovy concepts, nobody needs that crammed down their throats.
Simple Letter's shirts aren't the heavy handed Born Again wear that seems to be the rage with the WalMart crowd; but that's what I like about them. Lion of Judah is a Jah tinged tribute that doesn't beat you in the face with it's spiritual roots. In fact, if you didn't know it was a Christian shirt I bet the Athiests/Agnostics/Buddhists/Muslims/etc. in the crowd wouldn't think twice about picking it up. Hell, I'm sorta considering it.

Snap, yo. It would seem that the folks at skinnyCorp recently soft launched OMG Clothing. Like Threadless, OMG Clothing takes user submissions and spins them into shirts. But instead of carefully crafting vector art, users throw a whole bunch of witty/stupid slogans at the wall to see what sticks.
The rating system they've implemented is actually a whole mess of fun. You're given 50 random slogans which you're asked to rate "I'd wear this" or "OMG... stupid". I've spent about 15 minutes playing with it before writing this entry, and I almost couldn't pull myself away from it. At first I felt really bad tagging shirts I wouldn't wear "OMG... stupid" but I eventually tired of the system urging me to rate them before I continued.
Now I'm not too hip on giving someone else exclusive rights to any of my really clever slogans. Especially not for something as small as a chance at a $200 prize package. But if you have no problem selling your soul, we suggest you get over there and submit something. I mean, we're going to need to have something to write about in six months.

- Soak shirt in a solution of 8 cups of water and 1 1/2 cups of salt for 3 days. To make a solution, bring the water to a boil and stir in the salt. Let the solution cool before soaking your shirt, or your shirt may shrink.
- After 3 days, wring your shirt out and give it a quick interior and exterior rubdown with extra or super fine grit sandpaper. Tread lighly over any silkscreening or iron-ons, unless you're going for that look.
- Hang your shirt to dry in sun. If you live in a place where there is no sun, consider moving.
- Give the shirt a quick rinse and wring in your sink. Salt's really not that good for your washing machine.
- Wash and dry your shirt as you normally do. We suggest you don't throw any additional clothes in the load unless you're adventurous. Heaven forbid there's any collateral damage.
- Soak shirt in a mixture of 6 cups water, 2 cups color safe bleach and 1/2 cup salt for 2 days. To make this particular mixture, heat the water and stir in the salt until it has disolved. Let the water return to room temperature and mix in the color safe bleach.
- After 2 days, pull your shirt out of the mixture and immedeatley throw it into your washer. Wash and dry your shirt as you normally would. As we suggested for the Standard Fade, it may be a good idea to let your shirt fly solo on this load.
Apple geeks are having a very good day today. Both the Mac mini and iPod Shuffle were announced in Steve Jobs' Macworld keynote.

Any card carrying hipster loves them some irony. Unfortunately, carrying a card as proof of hipsterdom is not considered, well, hip. Many hipsters speak thru their wardrobe, which is an alright way of going about it.
One could wear a shirt with characters from The Land Before Time on it, but that's a bit too subtle [not to mention mildly fey]. You need to go the opposite direction and beat people over the head with what you're getting at. Like really really hard.
I [heart] Irony pretty much comes out and says what you want to. Sure it's extremely blatant - which is the antithesis of cool for a hipster - but it's so blatant that it somehow manages to shoot back into cool territory again. I'd illustrate with a bell curve, but I don't want the USA Today readers we picked up to get tugwax on their keyboard.

Going along with the theme from our last post, Propaganda Panda is a cute take on the classic Chinese style of propaganda. When I showed this tee to my girlfriend, her face lit up almost instantly. Actually, she called it "adorable, yet menacing", which sort of sums it up nicely if you ask me. There's just something about a smiling panda, with a gun slung over it's shoulder that whispers "I'm a happy go lucky cat, but I'll shoot you if I have to." in a sensitive, reassuring manner.

What's not to like about the folks at Downhill Battle? They're a ragtag bunch of misfits fighting the good fight against the RIAA. One could say that they're a the A-Team of the internet era - distributed, resourceful and not afraid to get a little dirty.
Downhill Battle manages to sell every one of their tees for the exceedingly low price of $10. That's wicked cheap considering that they're all done on ultra high quality American Apparel shirts, which retail for $15 sans printing. They say they can do that thanks to volume, but I'd wager that crazy Murdoc had something to do with it.
I've had one of these shirts for about six months now and I must say that it's one of the softest I own. The print already has that broken in look and it's held up well in the wash. There's no doubt that I've gotten $10 of use out of the shirt already, but it's still going nice and strong. That being said, I should probably buy a few more. Not because I need a new one, but because supporting Downhill Battle is a good thing.

Brandon Debes advised that I check out the gear over at Enclothe. After running over there I'm very happy to say that I wasn't disappointed.

I know I'm gushing more than I usually do, but fuck it... I'm having a good day and this shirt is just that well done.

Sometimes you have to sell your soul just to get a free t-shirt.
I mean, look at the coeds in those Girls Gone Wild videos. Most of them flash their boobs for nothing more than a gaudy shirt and [maybe] a mesh back hat. But first, they have to sign a waiver that states that Girls Gone Wild can use their image in their low rent spank videos and infomercials. That's an awesome deal, isn't it?
You don't have to show off your dirty pillows to get a free Cuervo and Ginger Ale shirt. I mean, you can if you really want to - but you don't have to. All they require from you is a valid postal and email address, which isn't too horrible. Actually, getting put on a marketing list is almost as much of a hassle as having your boobs show up on TV at 3am; but hey, free shirt.
Besides, who wants to spend themselves in their Adams Atoms shirt while watching Girls Gone Wild? Not I.

If you've got a moth problem, at least this shirt would be safe in your closet. I say safe, but that's only in theory. I'm pretty sure moths don't read english, so that may be an issue.
Now, I don't want any innocent t-shirts getting hurt. If you really do have a moth problem, you should stop browsing this site and go get some stuff to take care of that. We'll still be here when you get back.
Okay, so the shirt really isn't moth-proof. Like, at all. It still manages to be pretty damned clever despite its shortcomings. The fine print on the pseudo shrinkwrap license should prevent wearer induced ingestion at the very least:The wearer of this t-shirt expressly agrees that use of this garment is at the wearer’s sole risk, and that the manufacturer is not responsible for any injuries resulting from accidental or intentional placement of the aforementioned garment inside the gastrointestinal system. Wearer’s license to display this garment may be revoked if it is found to be eaten or otherwise used in a nutritive or gustatory manner.$18.00 | PayPal | URL

I'm not a hipster, but I play one on the interweb. Fortunatley, people like Terry send me shirts that make it really easy to pretend like I'm cool.
Now that we know that I'm just a poseur, let's take a look at Mister Chen's Brooklyn Cow. I'm sure something's to be said for where each neigborhood is, but I don't feel like pulling out my butcher's chart and making a whole bunch of cheesy allusions. Those of the portly persuation should take note - Mister Chen's shirts seem to only go up to XL. So if you're a big guy who really wants this shirt, we suggest you get on the Atkins and have yourself a cut from the Bushwick area.
Then again, you could just write to ask them if they could print on bigger sizes. That'd just be the easy way out, but the choice is yours.

It's so hard to pick my favorite shirt from Toothpaste for Dinner. Actually, no it's not. I love "if i had a dollar for every time i had sixty cents, i would be canada" so much that I'm willing to go so far as to call it an instant classic. I'm not anti-Canadian in the slightest. Hell, some of my favorite people on earth are Canadians... Cory Doctorow and the Flickr Team spring to mind. A joke now and again is fine, but basing is reserved for asshats like Ann Coulter.
So if you just like a bit of cheeky ribbing on America's neighbor to the north [Or you're the sole member of the Tucker Carlson Fan Club] you should probably pick this up. Also, who doesn't like buying things from people who make their pug model their wares?

Gals who are into scooters are hot. Hot girls who are into scooters are, uhm... more than hot? Okay, so that didn't make sense. Cut me some slack. This is the first post of 2005, I'm mildly drunk and I swear to god I can see nipple in the product shot.
Even though I don't own a scooter, I adore the culture. Quadrophenia is one of my favorite movies and I constantly scour used scooter sites looking for a local junker to fix up. Having no idea about my love for scooters Tim Tate dropped me a link to his friend's store. That's where I spotted this little gem. I mean, scooters and rebels with big guns - what's not to love?
P.S. Don't fret fellas, there's a version for guys too.
