It's on today and starts in an hour and ten minutes. I live in Brisbane, work in the city, go to stores, bars, galleries etc, read the free newspapers and streetpress quite a lot, and I write a freakin tshirt blog - and I only found out about this last night!! Poor! They don't even have a website - just a myspace that doesn't even tell you who's going to be there. Slack. They say are going to have Brisbane's best tshirt designers there but I know some who won't be - cause they don't even know the damn thing is on!<br /><br />Anyway, hopefully it should be a great day, and if for some sad reason you are reading a tshirt blog on a Saturday morning and you live in Brissy, head along and check it out. It's on from 9am to 4.30pm at Ahimsa House, 26 Horan Street, West End. I'm going (I'll be the guy with the skull pop shirt if you wanna say hi) and I'm sure there should be some sweet new labels there just waiting to be discovered.dbthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16029313841812047644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065180878287152196.post-87741014969795878502007-12-12T18:02:00.000+10:002007-12-12T18:10:10.329+10:00Kimazo - tshirts and illustrations<a href="http://www.kimazo.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Kewpie Doll T-shirt by Kimazo" src="http://death-by-tshirt.com/dbt-images/kimazo-tshirt1.jpg" /></a><br />Oksana Kemarskaya has a nice little profile site/store called <a href="http://www.kimazo.com/" target="_blank">Kimazo</a>.

Maybe this is because I have a particularly long name myself - two middle names both with three syllables. Of all my names I like my surname the least, mainly due to the fact that it only has three letters.<br /><br />Perhaps slightly pre-determined by my fondness for the gratiutously named, I love <a href="http://www.artintheage.com/" target="_blank">Art In The Age Of Mechanical Reproduction</a> (despite me being too lazy to type their name in full again - "aita" from here on out). When aita asked if they could send a shirt for review I took two quick looks at their impressive roster and said "I'll take two thanks."<br /><br />To my joy the impressive nature of aita did not conclude with a lengthy title and a pretty website. The package I received contained the two shirts wrapped in the sexiest tissue paper I have ever seen (hell, I didn't know tissue paper could even be sexy until now) and a plethora of impressive marketing material that they were kind enough to send. Sure, it may seem inconsequential, but I think that a company that can get their marketing looking tight is well on the way to success.<br /><br />The shirts continued to impress. The guys logo tee is so freaking soft it feels like underwear. Which is a good thing. In fact it's softer than my underwear... The softness comes via an American Apparel 50/25/25 track shirt - and because it's AA you know it's going to fit well. I'm also quite fond of the logo and the way it subtley humanizes the industrial subject. Deep right?<br /><br />While the guys shirt is subtle, the girls shirt is straight-up crazy. Screenprinted front and back with catastrophic imagery, in an engraved style that you'd expect to see in a 19th century history book. Typhoons, volcanoes, tidal waves and even aliens destroy everything in sight. Sweet. I'm not sure as to the origins of the shirt itself but it's 100% cotton and comes from Peru. Awesome.<br /><br />My only concern with these shirts was the slight twist in the seem (check the photo) on the girls shirt. I'm told that this is not common and is due to the shirts being "unique and individually printed," and it actually looks kind of cool when the shirt is being worn - although I'm sure it may bug some people.<br /><br />Aita's other shirts also feature amazing art work and are totally worth checking out. They've just released some new one's too - be the first in town to grab them. A great range from a nice little label that sticks by it's name and produces some great artwork, hand prints their shirts and pays attention to the small details.<br /><br />RRP: Mens Logo Tee $28 (USD), Womens Catastrophe Tee $36 (USD)<br /><a href="http://www.artintheage.com/" target="_blank">BUY THEM HERE</a>dbthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16029313841812047644noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065180878287152196.post-7859984256729213972007-12-10T00:19:00.000+10:002007-12-12T00:31:15.391+10:00The Kiss Of Death - 2K By Gingham<a href="http://www.krudmart.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=20&products_id=2267" target="_blank"><img alt="2k By Gingham Tshirt - Kiss of Death" src="http://death-by-tshirt.com/dbt-images/kissofdeath-tshirt.jpg" /></a><br />I was just checking out the oddly named yet well put together new blog <a href="http://www.fatseagull.com/" target="_blank">Fat Seagull</a> and saw this beauty from 2K by Gingham.

It's great to see a company who has a put as much time and effort into producing a great site as they have with their tshirt range. Testing and constant refinements means that the finished Gorilla Riot site provides an excellent shopping experience - enabling the salivating tshirt enthusiast to easily navigate between the label's 6 different launch collections. Sure, it's awfully annoying that you have to click on each thumbnail before you can see what colours each shirt comes in (no they don't all come in white!) but the site loads quickly, and getting a bigger look at the tasty illustrations (and models) makes it bearable.<br /><br />With artwork from the likes of <a href="http://www.digitalthree.com/" target="_blank">Digital Three</a>, <a href="http://bagger43.com/" target="_blank">Bagger43</a>, <a href="http://eyekaps.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Eyekaps</a>, LambShank (Kyle from <a href="http://www.digitalthree.com/" target="_blank">D3</a> and <a href="http://imario.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">IMario</a>), and <a href="http://mattjmorris.com/" target="_blank">Matt Morris</a> (aka <a href="http://myspace.com/coolvader" target="_blank">Cool Vader</a>), this is one riot that even the most ardent pacifist may want to check out.dbthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16029313841812047644noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065180878287152196.post-50117106377639214262007-11-16T09:53:00.000+10:002007-11-16T10:20:32.282+10:00Monsieur T fall/winter line<a href="http://www.monsieurt.net/" target="_blank"><img alt="Monsieur T fall/winter releases" src="http://death-by-tshirt.com/dbt-images/monsieur-t-fall-winter-tshirts.jpg" /></a><br />In case you haven't checked it out already, the fall/winter line from <a href="http://www.monsieurt.net/" target="_blank">Monsieur T</a> is well worth checking out.

Plus if you refer new users (like I'm obviously trying to do now) you get link credits from their activity too. Basically, you end up with loads of links to your blog all over the place.

From the press release:<br /><blockquote>Diego Mosco, a graphic designer who has spent years creating graphics for underground cult label Supreme has created a limited edition t-shirt for the <a href="http://www.regenerationgallery.com/" target="_blank">Re*Generation</a> charity art auction to further promote awareness of the homeless youth crisis. The 100% cotton t-shirt is emblazoned with a bold three-color, pop art-inspired print depicting a spark setting off an explosion - illustrating the way in which small acts of giving can set off greater movements of positive change.</blockquote><br />There are only 500 of these shirts in existence and a lot of those would have gone at the RE*generation event held in New York City this week - so if you want to get your hands on one and support youth homelessness quickly head over to the RE*generation <a href="http://www.regenerationgallery.com/virgin2007/store/store_t.asp" target="_blank">store</a>.dbthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16029313841812047644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065180878287152196.post-80843175937846486402007-11-07T19:07:00.000+10:002007-11-07T19:27:30.148+10:00Threadless goes specialised<a href="http://threadless.com/?from=DBT" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="http://death-by-tshirt.com/dbt-images/threadless-advanced-tshirts.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://threadless.com/?from=DBT" target="_blank">Threadless</a>, the reigning juggernaut of tshirt design competition sites, has just announced that they will now be offering a whole range of specialised printing techniques for wannabe tshirt designers to utilise.

Or is this a pre-emptive strike, kind of like McDonalds offering salads for sale before everyone sued them for making them fat? Well, maybe nothing like that at all... But, just like the fast food industry (as it's multitude of puke-inspiring documentaries stands testament to) the online tshirt battle sure is about to get interesting.<br /><br />Hopefully the new plethora of design possibilities may drag Threadless away from their predictable winning selections as artists explode in a fit of creativity. Only time will tell.dbthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16029313841812047644noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065180878287152196.post-70475813713701978622007-10-31T18:52:00.000+10:002007-10-31T18:57:39.008+10:00Trick or Treat<a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/grammatik" target="_blank"><img alt="Skull Pop t-shirt by Grammatik" src="http://death-by-tshirt.com/dbt-images/skullpop-redbubble-grammatik.jpg" /></a><br />Buy <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/grammatik" target="_blank">this</a>.

His bold, musically influenced style is something to behold, and indeed many would agree with me judging by his impressive <a href="http://www.jordanatkinson.co.uk/menu07.html" target="_blank">client list</a>. If you can't shell out the required coin for a <a href="http://www.jordanatkinson.co.uk/shop.html" target="_blank">print</a> why not opt for the useable - and affordable - alternative, a <a href="http://www.jordanatkinson.co.uk/shop.html" target="_blank">tshirt</a>? These beauties are screenprinted on American Apparel Tshirts and pay homage to pop sensations from the past and present. Too freakin' awesome.dbthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16029313841812047644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2065180878287152196.post-37317493984284033522007-10-26T01:13:00.000+10:002007-10-26T01:45:29.367+10:00TEE TEST: Custom Industries<a href="http://www.customindustries.net/products.html" target="_blank"><img alt="Dragon t-shirt by Custom Industries" src="http://death-by-tshirt.com/dbt-images/custom-industries-dragon-tshirt.jpg" /><br /><img alt="Dragon t-shirt detail by Custom Industries" src="http://death-by-tshirt.com/dbt-images/custom-industries-tshirt-detail.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.customindustries.net/" target="_blank">Custom Industries</a> is an interesting label, choosing to stay away from popular trends but instead creating a line that is influenced by artwork from many traditional cultures. The brand's aesthetic "reflects the quest for adventure and discovery of the obscure." And as someone who has been around the world a few times visiting over 45 countries on the way, Custom Industries founder Matt Taylor should be the right person to do the job.<br /><br />The range from CI includes jackets, hoodies thermals and tank tops for guys and girls, as well as your everyday tshirt. Each is decorated by art from many different countries including China, Indonesia, Egypt and India, to name just a few.<br /><br />Matt flicked me one of his new Dragon shirts to check out, and I'm happy to say that it gets a big, cheesey DBT thumbs up. The shirt is well made and the grey colour has just the slightest hint of lavender to it - not enough to decrease your masculinity, but just enough to be different. Also the exposed stitching - which I'm not usually a fan of - is really good quality and definitely suits this style, adding to the rugged global traveler feel. The quality of the screenprinting is great, with two tones of red adding depth to the illustration of the bad-ass dragon. (Am I allowed to say bad ass about a dragon?) To pop a cherry on top the material is nice and soft and the fit of this shirt is particularly good.<br /><br />So if you want to express your love of the orient, wear a mean looking dragon, or pretend to look well travelled to impress a certain someone, then Custom Industries is the place to fulfill your culturally-influenced attire needs.<br /><br />RRP: $30 (USD)<br /><a href="http://www.customindustries.net/dragonss.html" target="_blank">BUY IT HERE</a><br /><br /><small>Want your shirt reviewed?
