Just take a look at the name SuperGoodTees and tell me you’re not expecting one hell of a site.  I definitely was, and I wasn’t let down when I stepped inside.  SuperGoodTees is a nice change of pace from what we’re usually exposed to as it is a UK based site.  Its not one of those odd European weird character sites, its just a different spin on some good ol’ graphic tees.  Using puns and other clever literary devices SuperGoodTees rolls its r’s to success.  Here are a few of their more popular designs:

We’ll start with one of SuperGoodTees’ best selling designs: “Hug Life.”  Obviously a play on thug life and probably the option I’m more apt to choose.  Nothing really special about this design other than its in true-to-thuglife font, but its the thought that counts isn’t it?  Available in the traditional black, as well as 5 other colors.

There might be a few of you out there that like me, were terrified after watching Jurassic Park just thinking about dinosaurs running free in today’s modern world wreaking havoc.  Tell me that a pack of highly aggressive raptors running through Wal-Mart doesn’t raise the hair on the back of your neck.  Fortunately, as SuperGoodTees reminds us, dinosaurs are no more.  Wiped out by *enter your choice of global phenomena here*, dinosaurs won’t be roaming this earth with us anytime in the near future.

Happy Friday everyone.  Is there anything better than finishing the week out on a Friday afternoon?  Well, other than finishing the week on Thursday and not having to get up on Friday.  Today we’re featuring one of this week’s new shirts from BustedTees, “Funtime Friend.”  I’m not sure the intended purpose of this shirt, but I feel like BustedTees left it up to the imagination for a reason.  This way it can be as tame or as suggestive as you’d like.  I think I would like to hang out with whoever is wearing this shirt however, because it just seems like if you wear a “Funtime Friend” shirt you’re a nice person.  Or at least a fun person (doesn’t have to be a nice person necessarily…).

Remember as a kid doing box car races and the days of first place, second place and third place?  Well in this day and age to make sure nobody feels “left out” or “not good enough” parents have created all kinds of honorable mention ribbons and special awards.  Busted Tees has decided to take a stance and say enough is enough.  Enter “Participation Ribbon“.  So everybody feels equal and everybody gets a ribbon.  I think its a load of bull. 1st 2nd and 3rd place, blue, red and white ribbons.  That’s how it should be, the end.

Bed-head.  Morning breath. Crust eyes.  All a wonderful part of the process of waking up in the morning.  Ugly Morning has taken these little life treasures and put them on display for everyone to appreciate.  I’m not sure how I feel about the main concept, the whole Ugly Morning thing, but the shirts themselves have cool designs, its like a mix between urban art and pirates.

We’re going to take a look at Ugly Morning Defined.  On the website Ugly Morning Defined (or UMD for short) is described as the physical and the mental characteristics of waking up “ugly” in the morning, or anytime after sleeping.  Great art and I like the font that is used on the shirt.  I think the text about the “bad breath” etc. could be taken out to let the grooming instruments speak for themselves.  For some reason I don’t really like walking around in a shirt thats says “bad breath.” The red really adds flavor to the shirt.

In lieu of the popularity of the MTV instant classic “Jersey Shore,” BustedTees has jumped on the wagon and brought us a special gem.  On special pre-sale right now BustedTees comes at us with the fist pumping “Beat Up That Beat.”  Watch out for anyone wearing this one, trouble is never far.  With this shirt on however, how do you get the abs shown off?  These shirts will ship January 25th and I am willing to bet they’re going to be BIG.

This Tuesday we’re going old-school with TenBills.  Doesn’t this shirt remind you fondly of childhood moments in where your mind was on anything but school?  Day dreaming about video games were only one tactic we used to make it through the day.  Here’s one of my favorites, probably one of your favorites too.  Here’s “Lunchtime.”

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that we have not been able to receive any email that has been sent our way for a while.  Sorry for the invonvenience and we’ll try to get to you as soon as we get things figured out!

Hope everyone has been able to stay warm and had a Happy Holiday.  This week there are a couple of notable new releases at BustedTees.

Help start the New Year off right by making the notable observation everyone has wanted to say that BustedTees has finally put on a t-shirt.  “Swine Flu” is hilarious and sadly seems to be indicative of more people than we should all be comfortable with.

“Its Complicated” depicts another occurance that is sadly becoming more and more widespread.  With social networking sites originally intended for a target group of people (facebook and college students) becoming more accessable for the general public this opens up all kinds of doors that should have stayed shut.  One of these doors leads to a place where parents can now get on facebook and take offense when their kids don’t friend them.  Its not that we don’t love you, its just that you shouldn’t see those pictures of me at 2 am coming out of the bar.  Sometimes this leads to kids making friends with their friends’ moms.  Sometimes good friends.  But hey, its complicated.

Random Three-Pack Sale at TenBills until 12/24!!  TenBills Tuesday had to fall on a Monday this week due to this sale as I would like to give everyone enough time to take advantage of it.  You can’t really go wrong with anything from TenBills and you’re basically doing a buy 2 get 1 free.  Great idea for those three people you just can’t find a gift for, or keep two and give them the one you don’t want!  Right now that’s about all I can find on their website… Where did all the tees go?

Finally Friday! Took all week, but its here and we’re all glad.  And when it comes to the weekend nothing is more important than prepping for this weeks fantasy football matchup.  BustedTees knows that too much preparation can lead to bad things happening.  Just like too much practicing for a football team could lead to injuries, too much lurking and refreshing in the free agents section can lead to fantasy sports related injuries.  Here’s one from BustedTees that’s been around for a while but still makes me laugh.

Marty May is an LA based company and is dedicated to incorporating everyday spectacles into their clothing.  Marty travels around as much as she can, immersing herself in local nature and interpreting her visions through the clothing.  Marty is also dedicated to supporting only humane labor and goes through American Apparel for the shirts while making all the bags and wallets herself.

“Elevated Tee” is the first one we’re going to take a look at.  An odd arrangement of guitars being drawn to the sky by balloons makes up the front of this shirt along with an oddly placed 6-pack.  I don’t really know why the 6-pack is there, but I guess where you find guitars there’s always a 6-pack around somewhere.  I like the design because it is spaced out nicely and does not feel busy at all.  Nice feel, American Apparel quality is evident.

Stego Plop on the other hand…. I don’t know where the inspiration for this shirt came from, but I would love to find out.  Basically a stegosaurus with a giant, fresh “stego plop.”  Not too appetizing, but the colors are funky and the shirt feels nice, which makes up for a lot.  That is, if you want to walk around with dino poo on your shirt…

Blue Man T-Shirts is a UK based site that is advertised as a company that produces funny, rude and offensive shirts.  Sounds like a site worth taking a look at.  The first thing I noticed when I got to the site is the age verifier to filter out minors attempting to check out offensive shirts.  I’m not too sure who would check the “I’m under 18″ box, but its a nice touch to see that Blue Man T-Shirts cares.  On to the shirts!  There are a wide array of hilarious shirts that I find to be original because its not the same stuff we constantly see from our US based sites.  Right now at Blue Man T-Shirts you can receive 20% off your order if you enter the coupon code 9b811a46c5 upon checkout Being the holiday season, we’re going to take a look at a few shirts with Blue Man’s version of “Holiday Cheer.”

“Baa Humbug” is a nice shirt, not one of the offensive ones we’ve been advertising.  This is a nice simple design and would be a great idea as a present for someone of any age.  I can see a little cousin wearing it as easily as I could see a mom or grandma wearing this design.  One nice thing about picking out what shirt you want is there is a whole list of different t-shirt and sweatshirt designs to choose from, as well as a few novelty items.

While “Baa Humbug” is anything but offensive, “Santa is Fake” makes up for the slack.   Consisting of the “Santa is Fake” text and an empty Santa suit crucified on the cross, “Santa is Fake” might not be the perfect gift for that niece of yours, but could be an instant classic for that miserable roomate you had in college.  I think the design is great and hope mine gets here so I can wear it this holiday season to spread the cheer.

TenBills is currently having a holiday sale where you can get a bunch of shirts at the $10 rate as well as 40% off select hoodies.  I believe the selection will be changing by the week but don’t wait too long, the holidays are just around the corner.

Today we’re going deep into my childhood fears as we present TenBills design, “She Wants To Talk Again.”  It looks super scary and weird, but is supposed to convey the effects and tension from communication and non-communication in relationships.  Is it better to respond with sharp words or silence?

Crooked Monkey is not your average t-shirt site.  When you get to the homepage you know you’re in for a real treat as soon as you see the little interactive monkey. I think I had him do three or four things in his dorm room before I even got to the shirts.  After being put in such a good mood by the monkey (who doesn’t love a monkey?) I was ready to check out the shirts.  The selection at Crooked Monkey is certainly a step above the crude feces shirts of other mass production sites and its “irreverent yet tasteful” humor is best suited for the college age demographic.  I also certainly enjoyed the candy that came with the shirt: bananas.  What else?

We’re going to take a look at the “Popped Collar” shirt.  Nice graphic, vintage lettering and distressed feel.  The shirt is VERY thin and soft due to it being a 50/50 poly cotton blend.  It is also treated with natural enzymes to ensure that super-soft feel.  I agree with the message on the shirt as well, so Crooked Monkey scores a win for me.

Izzi Pop was just launched in Fall 09 and is already making a statement with the unique, clean-cut designs that they offer.  For being such a young company, Izzi Pop already has a nice selection without trying to pump out too many designs.  The ideas for the shirts are centered around art, pop art, pop music and pop culture and are printed on %100 preshrunk cotton.  The graphics are water based to give the shirt that soft feel and shirts are offered in men’s and women’s fits.  The one thing on the shirt we got, Silver City Pop that I didn’t like was the big circle in the middle with “pop” inside.  I think the shirt speaks for itself without having to really bring out that “pop” icon.  Kind of throws the whole thing off in my mind.

Izzi Pop is also in the process of designing some pop art for items like posters.  Think they’d work on shirts as well?  We’ll keep you updated, but here’s a teaser:

Zero Boutique (ZBQ) is blowing out all of their old stock- all shirts have been marked down to $12 until the end of December. Many of these designs won’t be reprinted at any time!

ZBQ also has a new design up for pre-order: “Killbots” by Keeley is available in 7 different color combinations for only $12 on your choice of t-shirt or ladies’ tee, but only until December 3rd at midnight. We really like the Xmas bots shirt, which is only being offered until the 3rd and won’t be available again after that.

ZBQ has been selling online since 1998, and they have easily one of the most eclectic and interesting collections out there. We’re told there are a ton of new designs coming in the new year, so keep your eyes peeled.

Today we’re going to take a look at a new Artifex shirt, iBike.  Now, normally I love the Artifex designs and I can’t agree with their cause more (go organic, anti-sweatshop, save the world), BUT….. I’m not a fan of iBike.  Its a nice idea in theory, but the whole iSomething… not good anymore for me.  Quality “econscious” shirt that feels and fits very nice for those of you who are fans of the design.

TenBills Tuesday, Thanksgiving edition.  Since TenBills doesn’t really have anything that has to do directly with Thanksgiving, we’ll go with their “Paint By Numbers” shirt.  This is a new print of an old design I believe, but they are now featuring it in longsleeve black and brown, and short sleeve in army, black, and brown.  “Paint By Numbers” is a woodsy themed shirt with a proud buck on display on the front.  Great idea, well executed.

Leave No Child Behind.  HOPE. Yes We Can! Country First.  Getting sick of it yet?  Well to tell you the truth, was sick and tired of all these campaign slogans being postered up everywhere during the election and I’m still sick and tired of seeing them everywhere: bumper stickers, shirts, posters.  If you’re like me and want to get back a little at all those pretentious political fanatics (who’s vote still only counts as 1), BustedTees has the answer.  “Obnoxious Political Opinion” in red, white, and blue is actually what I see when I look at people with their personal views proudly displayed on their shirts.  BustedTees helps us all say: I’m glad you care about something so strongly, but please don’t force feed me your views and hate me if I don’t agree.

Today we’re going to take a look at “Floater,” a more basic design from TenBills.  As TenBills is known for their outrageous designs with a million things going on at once, “Floater” takes a different route.  It almost seems like “Floater” is some corner of an Asian style dojo that needs to meet up with its other 10 parts before being featured on a TenBills shirt.  I definitely like the image, looks great on Charcoal.

Linty Fresh returns to TShirt Review! This time with “Tired of the City,” a bright yellow shirt with a very urban looking cityscape.  The special “collector’s card” that comes with the shirt has a nice little poem about how the city smells, is loud, and has nothing left to offer, now that the author’s “person of interest” has moved away.  Overall it is a nice shirt; from the design (I like how the Linty Fresh pipes are woven into the cityscape) to the fabric and feel “Tired of the City” certainly has a lot to offer.  I also feel like this shirt could only come in yellow, as the loud color definately gives off the right message about the city.

Some good things come a day early.  Does anyone else notice all these companies that started off doing one thing and then turned into massive service conglomerates that offer anything? BustedTees does.  Remember when Google used to just be a search engine?  BustedTees does. Remember when Skynet didn’t used to have homicidal robots running the world?  Busted Tees does.  Draw parallels at your own risk, just remember: Google is watching.  “Skynet,” 15% off this week only.

I went over to TenBills this morning to see what they had in store for this Tuesday and…. nothing?  I guess there isn’t a $10 shirt of the day today so we’ll head on over to the archives to see what we missed.  One shirt I found that I really like is “Radio Flyers.”  It looks like an eagle with a weird owl head, but if you look closely you can see the upside-down cityscape and other radio-inspired bird parts.  This is an old shirt from TenBills if I remember correctly, but its a good one.

New at BustedTees this week, which means %15 off of course, is “Map Marker Death.”  For the more macabre of us out there here is a shirt you can probably sour a few faces with.  That soccer mom you pass in the street will never be able to mapquest a birthday party again without thinking homicide.
