Somehow the juxtaposition of Chairman Mao and a modern expression of laughing your ass of (or rolling on the floor) for that matter really works on the ROFLMAO T-Shirt from dirtymicrobe . My other favorite shirt, and in fact one of my favorite T-shirts of all time is RTFM also featuring Chairman Mao, great stuff.

The Life Aquatic T-Shirt has been out of print for a while and it’s been a long time coming. I reviewed this shirt a while ago and since it’s back it’s worth pointing out again. If your a fan of the director, Wes Anderson maybe check out this other shirt honoring another of his films, [...]
Let It Bii from Nerdy Shirts is another great example of how much fun people are having with the “Mii”, the avatar that you create on your Wii. I still desperately want a Wii, i’ve played with a friends and it was awesome… yes, i know how that sounds

Bazooka is a really great design by a graphic artist named Theresa who runs Otsutree.com. It’s actually another design that reminds me of Flowers In The Attic from threadless, which is one of my favorite designs ever. The juxtaposition of beautiful things like butterflies being discharged from the business end of a soldiers weapon seems [...]
That’s No Spoon, I love this shirt, anyone that reads this blog knows I love Star Wars (the original at least, I hate Jar Jar). This is such a brilliant pun (I think it’s a pun), kind of like the RTFM shirt. Anyway, I’m glad to find out about Lucky Threads, I had not heard [...]
Bad Ass Mama is from a line of t-shirts called American Exceptionalism from PJE Clothing in LA. One thing that makes these shirts distinct is the little rhinestones built into most of the designs:
That is a nice little detail that elevates these designs from ordinary, to interesting, and potential conversation starter (always a good thing [...]
Tommy Johnson was an influential delta blues singer who lived between 1896 and 1956. Anyway, as with many blues legends his influence was not really appreciated until many years later. The story is that the road to his grave site has disappeared over the years so there is no way to get to his grave [...]
“To die, to be really dead… that must be glorious” Maybe because I am alone for valentines day, and maybe because I’m attracted to goth girls, but somehow this t-shirt seems appropriate today. Of course “goth” was the equivalent of Emo when I was growing up, and as someone who grew up in the UK [...]

222 Hyde St, San Francisco, 9PM-2AM. with dj’s and stuff. The show featuring some uniquely designed hoodies from local artists. Pretty Damn cool, my only question is whens’ the t-shirt show? We’ve got some great local t-shirt artists in SF, upperplayground.com , loyalarmy.com , goodstorm.com (not an artist per se but they print a shit [...]
All My Friends Are Dead seems to be an ongoing theme for the folks at big stone head. You should check out the little mini book they have as well for $4 which outlines a lot of “all my friends are dead” scenarios. I particularly like the child-like design that this t-shirt has, that’s often [...]
UPDATE: You can buy the Loyal Army T-Shirts here and here’s a direct link to the Happy Clouds T-Shirt
I ran into this girl at a coffee shop gallery showing a photographer friend of mine (rojasphoto.com) was having on Saturday. Needless to say when I saw her shirt I immediately asked if she minded me taking [...]
Probably the best name for a T-Shirt store i’ve seen, I love it. Not only that but it’s a store that includes local artists creations, every month they commission exclusive designs from local talent and limit the designs to 100 items. You can see all the design in the area of the site they call [...]
Graniph.com is having a design competition and the grand prize is about $9,000 and obviously the t-shirt printed and sold by Graniph. Not a bad prize. The down side is you have to mail your entries to Japan in but hey, for $9,000 what’s the diff.
Good luck and let me know if you win [...]
The Tiishirt from Wire & Twine totally sets the bar for love poured into a t-shirt. They only have a few designs by each one is meticulously designed (see the History Of Facial Hair as another example). Here’s a video of their production process, it’s totally worth a look:
