Torso Clothing is a one man project by Chris Halaska, a graphic designer living in Sydney, Australia. Working mainly in digital but with skills in other areas such as Illustrator and animation he’s completed contracts for some very big names including Coca Cola and Warner Bros.

Torso Clothing provides Chris with the perfect outlet for his more personal designs. The store is a basic Big Cartel site right now so it could really do with a proper homepage (at least). The tees are on offer at a very decent $20 each (I’m guessing that’s US dollars) – and there are some very interesting ideas on show – all are printed on American apparel.

Return To Mount Hexx At Das Monk

A dark and foreboding summer awaits us as the Sydney based Das Monk t-shirt label release their latest collection in collaboration with UK artist Tim Laing entitled “Return to Mount Hexx”. Das Monk’s Marc Hendrick and Tim Laing have worked through the winter months to create a brave new collection which mixes a blend of kaleidoscopic colours and post-psychedelic forms to form a strange and enchanting world of modernity meets folklore in the shadowy world of Mount Hexx.

Strange and enticing characters and iconographies are revealed for all to see, including a face constructed purely from hands, a Navajo Indian paralysed in a perpetual state of bliss, an impala whose skin corkscrews around its hollow body, and a RussTim traveller whose obsession rendered him more skeleton than man. This is the time and place where t-shirt design leaves the mainstream follies of consumer sensibility and light humouresque and entrenches itself in the dark arts of illustrated madness and fear. Dare you follow them to the brink, to the very nether regions of the underbelly of urban streetwear, where few live to tell the tales of Mount Hexx? Well if you do you’ll be glad to know that Das Monk are offering worldwide free shipping if you use their enchanted code >> superfreebie << at the mysterious chamber of the checkout ;) read more
