Easy Way to Make Your Tees Look and Feel Vintage
There’s a lot of hoopla circulating around the ‘net on how to vintage-ify new t-shirts. Apparently everyone loves that aged to perfection buttery soft feeling made famous by real vintage t-shirts. As a result, t-shirt manufacturers have been suggesting the use of toxic chemicals, copious amounts of water, energy and time to achieve vintage qualities in brand spanking new tees. A spanking is what these brands deserve. Why not just buy actual vintage t-shirts and skip all the fuss (and the dreaded muss.) Please pin, like, tweet this post and help spread this message.
Magnum Kitsch
Take a peek at this wicked new trailer for the new Oliver Stone flick called Savages. Keep an eye on Taylor Kitsch (aka John Carter of mars) whose character Chon sports nifty Hawaiian shirts throughout the trailer. We don’t typically stray away from tees but when one of them looks to be Selleck’s epic vintage red Paradise Found jungle bird print, we start paying attention.

A t-shirt with a tag that features a rayon blend can make even the most run-of-the-mill design much more desirable (and valuable.) Heads up to all you sellers and pickers out there – shirts you typically passed over during the pick can be well worth grabbing given these tags can trump a mediocre design. Many sellers on top of their game are now including “rayon” in the title of their listing if the tee in ... Read more
Future Shock
140 1970s James Brown relics were recently discovered in a storage locker in Atlanta Georgia. I had no clue the hardest working man in show business had his own t.v. show, but I guess this is one of the reasons he was dubbed the hardest working man in show business. The program was canceled after one season so we’re assuming their surplus of tees ended up in a storage locker that was abandoned and then sold off four decades later. Sadly, even though they are Sportswear XLs (46!) – they max out at 19.25″ chests – in deadstock condition. Given ... Read more
