The Return of Das Monk
It’s been a while since we’ve featured the Das Monk t-shirt label and seeing as they’ve just released a brand new collection this seems the most opportune moment. As always Das Monk’s founder and designer Marc Hendrick has pulled out all the stops in order to wow his loyal following and the t-shirt buying public at large. Over recent years Das Monk has expanded into an international fashion label, now being stocked in 20 major stores across the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Experimentation is always at the forefront of the label’s raison d’√™tre, and in more recent times collaboration has too been the name of the game.
The latest symbiosis of talent and style comes from the infusion of Designer Marc Hendrick’s collaboration with international artists Zach Johnsen (US), Tim Laing (UK), Evan Meister (US), and Keenan Marshall Keller (US) for the unique designs in this latest collection. Hendrick’s unique choices in approach and style for the Das monk label have given rise to a cult following over recent years with cult music industry names like MGMT, TV on the Radio, Lupe Fiasco, A-Trak, Van She and Justice all backing the brand’s indomitable rising power in the field of tees.
Combining new designs with old favourites the latest collection is themed as a ‘Midnight in the Mojave’ depicting a story of bad trips, drifters, and desert dreaming in the void of the desert landscape and urban drop-out mythology. Continuing its post-modern take on 21st century psychedelia, tinged with the down-to-earth pain and hardship of a life on the rocks, infusing the bizarre, the irreverence and foresight of yet another lost generation. Let’s take a look behind the monastery walls and see what’s hanging on the line this season:-

Tripping out at Psywear.com
Now, I am one of those old geezers who’s done everything under the sun and lived to tell the tale. Let’s just say I have had my fair share of intoxicants and intoxicated experiences, and some wonderful memories for the knapsack that is my brain, I’m sure I’ll suffer for it in later life (but who really wants to live an aeon in these troubled times?). Still, something more concrete I can look back on (as in not mere imagination or delusion) are my tattered old tees that even if they were in a wearable state, I’d dare not wear now. Smoking Buddhas, psychedelic vortices, groovy, weird, and rather overpowering designs related to all aspects of past and buried trends, scenes, happenings, what have you. But if i could get away with it I would, which is why I’m tripping on nostalgia when I look at the fractal chaos that is Psywear‘s t-shirt collection. read more
