The Latest Garment Goodies
The Select line has been under constant scrutiny since its induction. The pricer tees have found popularity in smaller fan groups rather than the general crowd. Lately, however, there have been some impressive offerings which everyone seems more pleased with than not. This week’s Select, Iconoclast, is particularly lovable thanks to its creative use of the entire shirt. This really raises the bar for Select artists and will hopefully push more designers to start thinking outside the box.
Six standard competition winners, five new Kids tees, and two reprints are also mixing it up over at Threadless. Keep readin’ for the skinny and an overload of linkage.
What comes down, must go up… at least when it concerns the water cycle and evaporation. H2O’s Sacrifice is a lovely nature design which looks super nice on a hoody. (Too bad Threadless isn’t also in the business of making rain jackets.)
Anybody who has ever outgrown a wooden rocking horse like the one in this design, I Don’t Want To Grow Up, will truly understand why staying a kid is such an appealing idea. The charming design makes a cute statement on the Kids and Onsies sizes and a delightfully ironic one for the adults.
Fur Ladies is a design that’s both slightly disturbing and really intriguing. I can definitely see PETA members sporting this proudly along with anybody who loves unusual imagery.
Cryptozoology is “the search for and study of animals whose existence or survival is disputed or unsubstantiated, such as the Loch Ness monster and the yeti”. Cryptozoology is also a very fun and imaginative tee design looking great for both kids and adults.
A tiny ship attempts to bring in the sea’s biggest catch in Pexe. Two design colors were enough to bring this entertaining scene to life.
Queen of Paradise adds exotic flair to traditional elements. It’s the type of summer design that I wouldn’t mind taking a siesta in. Although I’m not much of a fan of Khaki and Silver tees, the colors of the image really stand out vividly against the muted tones.
The two reprints, Mmmh.. Delicious and This Is Not A Pipe (a personal favorite of mine thanks to its surrealist art and Nintendo references), round out this week’s latest batch of garment goodies. The sale may be over, but somehow paying full price doesn’t feel quite so bad when the designs are this good.

The entirety of this release cycle has left me completely cold. I can’t stand any of them.

Really? I like three or four of them. Different strokes for different folks.

Here is my take on some of the recent releases. I’ve actually figured out that the only Threadless tees that aren’t 100% cotton are the guys’ regular tees, and they are also the cheapest item you can buy.
