New Glenn On The Block – Aled Lewis

admin    T-Shirt Reviews     Aled Lewis, Glennz, Threadless, funny t shirts, funny tees, illustration, woot

You’re probably all aware of Glennz tees, run by Glenn Jones, a highly talented and humorous Australian illustrator who has for the main part cornered his area of the market with a wide variety of pithy pun-based t-shirts illustrating much of the ridiculous in society and the media. However you might not have heard of Aled Lewis, who for all intensive purposes is as about as close to an apprentice if not challenger for the place as king of comic tees.

Their styles are interchangeable, both Aled Lewis and Glennz being masters of graphic design, sticking to the old adage that ‘less is more’ both manage to convey t-shirt designs packed with humour and artistic reference without cluttering their work with excessive details and effects. Pure as purest vectors can be. The only real difference I can spot is that Alex has a decidedly more British sense of humour, featuring such British icons as The Tardis from Doctor Who, medieval humour and old school punk rock in the form of a male chicken.

Aled doesn’t have his own store as such however you’ll be relieved to know that all his works are available as winning designs (sometimes in collaboration with others) at Threadless and Shirt.Woot. Let’s take a look at some of Aled’s funniest creations and see exactly why this guy may become the new t-shirt king of comedy!

T-Shirt Goodies At Goodie Two Sleeves

admin    T-Shirt Reviews     Goodie Two Sleeves, Top Shop, funny t shirts, funny tees, goodietwosleeves.com

Goodie Two Sleeves are certainly starting to make waves over this side of the Atlantic, their range of funny t-shirts may be a familiar sight over in the States but this very well established brand are starting to go down a storm in Britain. Established around 7 years ago they’ve finally decided to crack the British market (and then some) with contracts with high street names like Top Shop and Bank Fashion they’ve now started to ship direct to the UK and so we think it’s time they got a little bit more attention for their range of humorous tees. What’s more they’re having a massive sale next week, aptly named ‘Black Week’ in recognition of the US shopping spree day, Black Friday. They have hundreds of original tees and several awesome licenses too – they’re the US distributor for UK brand Lazy Oaf amongst others. From next week (23/11 to 29/11) all of Goodie 2 Sleeves’ shirts will be available at half price, to get your 50% discount simply enter YOUCRAZY84 when you reach their checkout and save a bundle.

Their site is a lot of fun too, nicely presented with plenty of customer participation, check out their fan pics as well as a bunch of celebrities who wear their gear, including the band Flaming Lips amongst others. Anyway, fancy a laugh? Let’s look at some funny tees then… read more

Two New Tees At Dark Bunny

admin    T-Shirt News     Dark Bunny, Dark Bunny Tees, DarkBunnyTees.com, funny t shirts, movie merchandise, movie t-shirts, movie tees, spoof tees

DarkBunnyTees.com have just produced a couple of new tees for their spoof movie collection of shirts. As always incredibly well illustrated this time Dark Bunny’s evil gaze has focused on perhaps one of my all-time favourite classic horror films, the original 1978 version of Dawn Of The Dead by the zombie killing hero of a director George A. Romero and Boogie Nights, which admittedly he has sidetracked the main story and it’s infamous giant appendage belonging to the ‘adult entertainment’ star Dirk Diggler and instead safely drawn your attention to John C. Reilly’s role as Reed Rothchild and his role in this sexy romp.

Let’s take a look at the tees… read more

Unicorn T Shirts – Not Just For Hippies!

admin    T-Shirt Reviews     funny t shirts, funny tess, unicorn t-shirts, unicorn tees, unicorns rock, unicornsrock.com

Now I know what you’re thinking, but no I haven’t run off with the gypsies with flowers in my hair playing my mandolin under an impossibly technicolor rainbow, those days are long behind me. Although a recent email from UnicornsRock.com did make me smile. Asides from correcting some of our HTML coding at the Buy Tees blog, they’re pretty insistent that unicorn tees are the next big thing. They’re fighting against the tide of logic and mundanity in the world and reinventing the unicorn in a new, funny, sarcastic and rather catchy new way.

The guys reading this might be able to relate to a minor horror story of mine, in much the same way Rawson Marshall Thurber’s Dodgeball featured a woman obsessed with unicorns, I once entered the bed chamber of a similarly fanatic girl in my late teens and to this day the sight of 100s of stuffed, plastic, printed and giant sized unicorns is still burned on to the back of my retinas. I think that horse with a dodgy horn in Bladerunner, the one with a protuberance that swayed from side to side like a bizarre adult toy might have finally finished off any smidgeon of empathy I could have found for this mythical creature. Still, I’m a grumpy old bloke now, set in my ways, and yet even I managed to muster a chuckle or two at this new unicorn t-shirt brand.

They offer everything from zombie unicorn to gay unicorn t-shirts, there’s even a Batman unicorn tee on offer, although personally I’d have renamed it ‘batnicorn’, but still you get the drift. Do check out Unicorns Rock at Twitter for plenty more info, hook up with them at Facebook and check out more of their pics at their Flickr. Every shirt is $19 plus free US shipping, they offer wholesale or for those who don’t want to make a mint if you buy 2 of their shirts you get a 3rd for $5 which can’t be bad. So – sit on the nearest toadstool, brush the fairy dust from your eyes, and open your mind to the world of the funny unicorn t-shirt. Yeah man… read more

Scientific Beach Boys Tee @ Miss Wit

admin    T-Shirt News     Beach Boys, Dan Meth, Jeff Rubin, Miss Wit, funny t shirts, funny tees

Miss Wit have just released an Early Beach Boys Song Topics tee, this design has a long and venerable history, at least in Internet terms. It all began when college humour writers Jeff Rubin and Dan Meth (famous for such cultural highlights as Internet People) got chatting one day about all the cultural Venn diagrams that Dan had been making, and agreed that the Beach Boys’ early career would be a perfect addition. Their later career, from ‘Pet Sounds‘ onwards would of course involve all sorts of random factors like drugs and depression.

The design has been featured in The New York Times and the UK’s Guardian, and now it’s a t-shirt, true fame at last I’d say. Anyway take a look at some pics… read more

Do you want to be instantly famous? Well then you’ll probably love MyFaceShirt.com! The world can be divided into three kinds of people, those who know they look great, those who think they look great, and those who know they don’t. Delusional or not you can always boost your ego, or at the very least provide all your friends with a big laugh by following the cue of Anthony Colarusso, the man behind MyFaceShirt who’s come up with the ridiculously funny idea of printing his his own face on every t-shirt he creates, well that’s how the plan started out, to make himself instantly famous by selling tees featuring his mugshot for the world to learn to love.

As reality set in it was soon obvious there were many other narcissists in the world who required the same treatment lavished upon them, and since 2006 MFS has been providing this crazy yet definitely unique service to the tee loving (and self-loving) public, the perfect product for every egotist in the world, rightly or not, if you believe you’re the most gorgeous human being on the planet then this unique label have just what you need.

So put that mirror down for a second and consider the alternative, MFS will for very reasonable price tag of $19.99 (pus $1.99 shipping) render your amazing features in a clean vector art style, print up your features on a high quality, fitted micro fibre shirt (available in sizes S to XL and colours white, sand or blue) and ship it out pronto for you to wear to your heart’s content. Just think every time you stop in front of a shop window to check your reflection, you’ll be treated with double the fun. What could be more pleasurable for the vain and self-adored than to wear what they know is the height of perfection and style, your face for all to see, and hopefully, if you’re very lucky, for all to admire! read more

Say Hi To Seibei

admin    T-Shirt Reviews     BFF, SNES, Seibei, Seibei monster t-shirts, Seibei.com, South Park, funny t shirts, funny tees, humour tees, monster t-shirts

Seibei must be one of the most famous “underground” t-shirt labels out there, everyone who loves tees knows who they are, their dinosaur character being a cult figure for thousands around the world, but as the saying goes you can’t have too much publicity, and seeing as they have a whole heap of treats on offer right now, we couldn’t resist giving this fun and funky brand a big shout out! First off, David Murray, the guy/guru/madman/genius behind Seibei has kindly offered up a discount code for all you lucky readers, get a whopping 10% off any of their products by entering BUYTEES at the checkout!

If you want more? (Yes more more!) We’ve just been tipped off about their latest contest where you can win a very generous $200 CASH just for re-tweeting the following:-

RT @davidSEIBEI: JOIN THE INTRAMURAL ZOMBIE HUNTING LEAGUE! RT & follow thru 10/25 for a chance to win $200! http://tinyurl.com/joinizhl

So, for those not in the know here’s what to expect from Seibei, their name is based upon a character from a story by Naoya Shiga, David is sick of explaining the reasoning behind it by now as he’s been asked 100s of times, but if you really want the full low-down there’s an excellent interview at T-shirt Magazine that’s well worth checking out. They produce a lot of monster tees, not your usual ghoulish sort with blood dripping from their mouths and gore splattered backgrounds, but rather innocent and colourful ones that scream kitsch and collectible. I can imagine a lot of Seibei’s customers buying one design after another, it’s a case of ‘if you’re into them, your addicted’. They have a fine collection of iconic tees all designed by David Murray, who if you haven’t had a chance, do read his about page as there is a hilarious retort aimed at his former Japanese teacher, Professor Meera Viswanathan of Brown University. All the t-shirts are expertly printed by American Icon, which as it happens are David’s former employers, so you can be assured if anyone knows how to design for print it’s this guy.

Seibei have recently taken a very interesting direction, having formed the Intramural Zombie Hunting League, hence the Twitter promotion, you can see the t-shirt celebrating the fact here. Unfortunately international hunters won’t be able to order in time for Halloween, but if you’re in the USA you’re in luck, just get your order in by October 19th and you should be safe… phew. However they’re available all year round all the same. These are personally customised too with an optional sleeve crest and personal name and number for the back, great fun I have to admit.

Whilst you’re at Seibei do make sure you visit the blog, it’s funny, informative, and it offers far more than merely info on the brand and their latest exploits, right now they’ve posted a feature on an excellent new t-shirt book ‘Tees: The Art of the T-Shirt‘ by MAKI Design which honestly looks superb and you guessed it, Seibei are included, as are plenty of other great brands on the scene. Plus of course you can keep up with all of Seibei’s latest exploits at Twitter, and remember to retweet their message! Right, let’s take a look at what makes Seibei’s tees so cool:- read more

Fresh and Crispy Tees

admin    T-Shirt Reviews     Black Axe, Danny Glover, Hulk, Metallica, Nacho Libre, blackaxe, crispytees.com, funny t shirts, humor tees, humour tees, punk

Fresh from the awesome design team at Black Axe this hot new label offers a wealth of funny and outrageous tees for even the most jaded of t-shirt connoisseurs. Crispy Tees, a humour tee brand that actually delivers straight to the funny bone, borne out of compulsive brainstorming for the most stupid and ridiculous ideas imaginable, has been open for business since late August and appears to be doing a roaring trade. Not only are the shirts genuinely funny, but as you’d expect from the likes of Black Axe, beautifully drawn to boot.

No matter your taste, be it geek/nerd, metal, punk, emo or plain old funny, you’re sure to pick up something to your taste at Crispy Tees, and unlike the heaving mass of other funny t-shirt labels out there who simply license and churn out the same old bad jokes again and again (yes I get plenty of angry requests to review dodgy “funny” labels – even though they mainly suck), these guys design all their own, they don’t recycle jokes, and they actually wear the shirts themselves. To me that’s a good sign they not only know what they’re doing but they’re doing it well.

Surprisingly enough some of the designs on offer are very subtle, such as First 4, whilst others are more blatant, including movie references, jabs at popular celebrities and social transgressions, still we can forgive Crispy, they’re only in it for the laughs, and laughs aplenty is what they deliver. All their tees are available at $18 in sizes S to XXL and printed on American Apparel. So… let’s get crispy! read more
