Bigger Than The Beatles

Holy crap! I didn’t think you guys were really going to take me seriously when I asked you to nominate Preshrunk for a 2005 Bloggie. But lo and behold, we’re on the ballot for “Best New Weblog”. That’s awesome of y’all, especially since we’re less than a month old. To be perfectly honest, it sort [...]

Northern Boy

Preshrunk reader David McCreath pointed out that Brian Wood’s Northern Boy is having a Valentine’s Day sale. Two shirts of your choice are going for the low, low price of $22.00 – which includes shipping. Sweet Jesus! Sure, his catalog is limited to 6 shirts, but they’re all really great. Brian Wood is best known [...]

Vespa

Dear Tiny Factory, You probably hear this all the time, but please cosider having our babies. We could make beautiful t-shirts together. We’re no Gothamist… but honestly, who is? We’re absolutely enamored with your Vespa shirt. There’s something about a scooter on baby blue that just makes our nipples hard. Okay, that was probably too [...]

A Is For Anarchy

Santa Barbara’s The Human Effort has a freakin’ sweet series of tees. They’ve gone and made a shirt with a different bit of art for each letter of the alphabet. All of the drawings are quality stuff, but the ant has to be my favorite. There’s something about an ant being paired with the word [...]

Hang Tags – 01.19.05

+ Preshrunk reader Matt Rennick has a good eye. Allegedly, the models on I Stole Brad were nicked from an old revision of the American Apparel web site. I thought the girls looked familiar when I was readying the link to the shirt yesterday… + Jed from the .au sent us this note: Be thankful [...]

I Can’t… I’m Mormon

For the LDS peeps in the house, this one’s sure to be a hit at your next noncommittal make-out party. As someone who’s dated one, this shirt sums up Mormons nicely. The Church is pretty much the enemy of fun. Alcohol, caffeine and premarital sex are strictly prohibited. So what does that leave you with? [...]

Giant Robot, Helvetica

Were someone to ask me what my favorite magazine is, I’d say Giant Robot without hesitation. They’re only a quarterly, but they’ve managed to cover almost every imaginable facet of Asian pop culture since 1994. I met the GR staff at a zine fest back in Orange around 1996. All of them were really nice [...]

I Stole Brad

I could say that I’m throwing a bone to our female readers, but I won’t lie to you. The only reason we’re featuring this shirt is because our click-through rate spikes when we post pictures that feature modestly hot chicks. Some of you guys are really lonely, aren’t you? It’s almost enough to drive us [...]

Che Poppa

I wouldn’t go so far as to call the Notorious B.I.G. a modern day Che Guevara, but his impact on hip hop has elevated him to icon status. That’s why I’m in love with this number over at Turntable Lab. It’s a visual mash up of Che and Biggie that seems to urge people to [...]

Lorem Ipsum Bird

If you’ve spent any time doing heavy print or web design, you’ll appreciate this one from the peeps over at Veer. Lorem ipsum is the oldest example of what’s known in publishing circles as as “dummy” or “placeholder” text. Allegedly copied from Cicero’s De finibus bonorum et malorum, Lorem ipsum and its derivatives have been [...]
