VanRockin Apparel came out with a killer design called Toxic. With the increase of military style clothing looking good and becoming more a fashion, Toxic continues the trend. It is a vintage fit with 100% fine cotton. The qualities that make this shirt stand out is that its built to last. It is reinforced and double stitched so when buying this shirt its an investment. About the design, I think its unique using the color of the shirt to outline the shape of the soldier.

Let’s highlight some of the horrible Threadless shirts from this week, yes I said HORRIBLE:

Guys, can we please stop using light blue. It doesn’t look good on ANYONE.

Anyone that knows me would know that normally I love photography shirts, but this is horrible. This would make a great background for your computer, maybe even a poster, but a shirt? Horrible.

Lastly we have this gem. Ok so we’re going to pay for 1/5th of a drawing? An elephant? What the hell happened Threadless?

Spray Graphic is a passionate tshirt company, but it is a little to political for me. The owners seem to try to force their ideas and opinions on you.
Man of War
Spray Graphic does a good job at playing on the word meaning of the shirt. Personally, I think they did a bad design for the message. Manowars and Man of War are both ugly in my opinion. Spite the design, its a good quality tee that is comfortable.

Price: $24.00
Weeds or Flowers
This is a nice quality shirt. It has a hidden message of the debate of the dandelion flower. Some people consider it a flower while others consider it a weed. I didn’t even know there was a debate going on about this but apperantly Spray Graphic knows.

The Ryde is a company on the rise of success. They recently paired up with Boarding For Breast Cancer and had its proceeds for the day contribute to this charity. They continue to impress me with their line of high quality surfer style tees.
Enjoy Life is a great shirt with its simple but clear design. It has excellent quality printing which is a rare gift now days. Also another feature I like is that this company has minimal shirt shrinkage.

Go Ape has such a wide variety of tshirt designs. One aspect that I like about this company is the massive amount of designers they have which allows different perspectives to add to the company’s product line.
Zero
This design by Joshua Agerstrand is on a grey tri-blend American Apparel tee. The design is done in such a way that someone can take time to notice the details in this post World War II and later still be able to notice new symbols.

Red Lotus Clothing doesn’t normally appeal to me. However they were able to catch my attention with this design. “”Dreadlock Rockstar” Designed in a Rastafarian style…don’t go to your next reggae concert without it.” I have to disagree with this quote from the site; I would wear it around campus and just hanging out. It’s a slim fit crew that is made with 100% combed cotton ringspun jersey cotton.

Busted tees has really been impressing me lately. Their television tshirt designs are good without having lame quotes. I’m going to have to agree with “When you’re organizing your social calendar because of all the dates that this shirt will get you, make sure that none of them are on Thursday at 9pm.”

College Flavor new products are hilarious present-time tshirts. Making fun of some of the most current subjects in college campus jokes and current media trends.
The first is an Ireland drinking based tshirt. Showing respect for both the country and your body’s unsung hero.

Price: $17.99

The second is a favorite of mine. Having a tshirt based on the 80s T.V. show that made its come back in 2008, allows this shirt to be a throwback as well as a contemporary tshirt.

Both shirts are pre-shrunk, 100% cotton, ultra soft t-shirts.

Deez Teez has a strong line of movie, political, and life lessons tshirts that brings in humor to relay all of its messages. I’m a huge fan of the Happy Gilmore movie and glad to see a good quote used from the movie.

Price: $14.99

Also Deez Teez is offering two specials “Buy 3 Tees, Get 1 more free” and “Buy 10 shirts for $99.99″ The 10 shirt special is a real deal considering that you get any t-shirt or hoodie for $10.00. “Learn from the tour pro himself, Chubbs Peterson. Even with a wooden hand he can teach you how to be a champion.”

BustedTees always print a good t-shirt. They were able to catch an all-time classic from an American favorite sit-com that was in my personal opinion taken off before it’s time was over.

Printed on nice asphalt color American Apparel shirt. The asphalt color isn’t a too dark grey which will be perfect for summer.

Interesting stuff from Threadless lately… NOT. Here’s a couple that don’t suck though:


I honestly have no idea what’s going on in the 2nd shirt but it’s interesting to say the least. Ah.. I wish the old-style Threadless would come back, not this new-age sketch style stuff.
