I love the idea behind this Origin68 t-shirt, the irony of course that i’m promoting consumption of this thing while somehow looking down on the act of consumption.

Consume Everything from Origin68
29Feb08I have mixed feelings about this design, what do you think?
When a company gets in touch with me and tells me they’re called “Turtle Head” and their tag line is “touching cloth since 2006″ my expectations for awesomeness are set pretty high. I can’t say they dissapoint, the t-shirt “Just Remember Your Unique, Just like Everyone Else” is inspired.
