Tee-of-the-Week (Sep 28)
This weeks tee-of-the-week goes to Zebra Bot: Green by Robot Royalty.
As you all may or may note know that Bot’s sidekick Robotron went back to the shop for some fixing so this weeks TOTW goes to the brand that prints the freshest robots on t-shirts around. The other thing I completely love about this shirt is that the design is very simple, but done in a way that adds some dimension with out...

Indie Brand Spotlight: Lady Umbrella
In the 2 years I have been, seen, and gotten to know many t-shirt brands I’ve never seen one like this. I remember first hearing about Lady Umbrella, I was watching a live episode of IATT and Adam was talking and complementing about them so much I decided to try and find them. At first thought I wasn’t exactly sure what kind of t-shirts and art I was going to find but I when I saw it I was...

Tee-of-the-Week (Sep 21)
This weeks tee-of-the-week goes to Owl by Othello Industries.
I guess it is obvious why this won this weeks TOTW. Because it is one of the best owl tees printed and cleverly incorporates their logo into its design. The logo and the company title is incorporated into the the tree that the owl is perched on. I’ve seen many other brands that have animals or some art printed on the tee and just sick...

Lead & Light - Telemanipulation
Probably the most comfortable t-shirt I have even worn in my entire life, not to mention such a simply hardcore design. Well it is printed on an American Apparel Tri-blend so it better be comfortable as hell. On the inside of the shirt you don’t feel the print but on the outside you do feel it but I don’t mind it because the design isn’t very thick. By this I mean there isn’t too much...

Yesterday I got some stickers from Thriving Ink and couldn’t be more excited. As you can tell the sticker design is simply sweet, like the vast majority of their tees which cant get look and feel better. This being the third time writing about Thriving Ink there isn’t really anything new except to say they have one of the best designers and most comfortable tees in the game. I cant...

Indie Brand Spotlight: Vicious History
Vicious History is one of those brands that stick in your head because their designs are so gnarly and unique. Each one of their designs, I have never seen something like it. You can really see the progression of their brand, look at Genius Owl, then look at Wild Wolves or Dream Catcher Tank. That amount of progression in that short amount of time is unbelievable, defiantly the most improved...

Phase 5 - The Liver of the Independent T-shirt...
So why is Storenvy the liver of the independent t-shirt industry? The liver is a vital organ of the human body but for some it is not really important for others. That being said tons of brands out there that uses the services that Storenvy offer like free online shop or screen printing service, and others do not. I have used huge another independent shop hosting service, Big Cartel. At first I...

Tee-of-the-Week (Sep 7th)
This weeks tee-of-the-week goes to Weaponized Lion by Wolves vs Lions.
At first glance, from far away this just looks like a sweet lion tee but when when you look closer it pulls up its hardcoreness to a level never seen before and you figure out why this tee is called weaponized. The mane is a bunch of bullets, the eye brows are swords, the eyes are grenades, the cheeks are tanks, the eyelids...

Indie Brand Spotlight: Shatterproof Clothing
The only thing better than a great independent clothing company, is a independent clothing company with a purpose. Shatterproof uses eco-friendly products as much as possible. Also Shatterproof plants a tee for every product sold so buy a tee and plant a tree. Shatterproof prints on soft American Apparel products for all their tanks, tees, hoodies, and v-necks. I’m loving the art and logo on...

Heroine Clothing - Greed Blue Unisex
It was a tough decision choosing this tee because I LOVE all the art from Heroine Clothing, so I chose this one an happy I got it. Heroine Clothing prints all of their tees on blue 100% fine jersey cotton, the best around. They also have a screen printed tag with their anchor logo which is looking great with some washing instructions, t-shirt info, site and size. I am completely digging the size,...
