wear this tee today
This is what I’m wearing today. Well, it’s not. Because I don’t have one of these lovely, simple shirts. I’m a fan of the teetonic tees, having bought a few in the past. The print on the paclove tee was a little plasticky - but the others have all been flawless and printed on top quality tees.
When we get live ink on shirts ( like a book reader - where little liquid crystal puddles roam about on your shirt under the instruction of a little wifi enabled cpu in the tag ) this could say ‘this is what I wore yesterday’ or ‘wear this tomorrow - you haven’t worn it for days and it looks great with those new Gap jeans’. And when you do your laundry it could say ‘top drawer, middle pile’ o help you put it away. Wow - live shirt ink will rule! That and flying cars.
Oh - and be sure to visit the homepage on teetonic to check if their 50% discount code is still available!
zombie shapes
Zombie t-shirts make me happy. I’m wearing one right now. They demonstrate that you understand the fragility of life, that you appreciate the privilige that it is to be alive during these particularly civilised times, and that you can see through common civility to the evil heart of those around you who wish you dead and your brans in their casserole. Even the vegans want your brains when the zombies hit! Life on a credit card could become life on the run in seconds.
That, and dancing zombie prisoners are amusing. Another threadless classic.
$3 tee at chop shop
Chopshop are certainly hitting the mark with the rocker tees. (btw - Need to kill time at your desk in the festive wind down? head over here…) But OMG is too cool to cover the big buzzy shirts in anything but oblique reference. In these financially constrained times OMG loves a cheapie! And $3 is cheap! But is it any good? Yes. Excellent! Go buy one then. OK!. Well done!
Fear not - terrible conversational style posts are a rarity!
not tee scale
You see what I did there. Ho ho ho. Festive punnery and word play. How tiresome - or maybe it’s not! Maybe you need some shirt based wordy fun. If so - Walkie Talkie seem to have some original shirts here. I say seem to because whenever I say ‘original designs’ some of you email me some prior art on a cafe press shop of a weird, similar theme.
Either way - I love these shirts. Not to scale shown below made me laugh - and this mint one seems particularly excellent as a Christmas day shirt. It’s like wearing a game of dingbats.
gender equality at last
For far too long the world of tshirt design, along with many of the other fine arts, has been bogged down by gender stereotypes and inflexibility. A scientist hell bent on decimating the world cat population you say? Must be Male. A scientist researching some esoteric property of DNA which could stop the zombies getting us? Must be female. And hot.
Luckily for us when it comes to the moon, that most feminine of astral bodies, you can take your pick thanks in large part to wearscience.com and their innovative gender selector. I’m not talking the cut of the tee here - I’m talking the cut of the hair of the mad scientist ON the tee. Hurrah! Let the countown commence.
Great time to buy too because they are doing a ‘Just Call Me Santa‘ 20% off sale until the 15th. Coupon code: AMORPHIAROCKS
the man scientist
the lady scientist
(btw - reading that back I think I might just have overdone the coffee this morning…)
tshirt video competition - 1000EURO
Apologies for the lack of a Euro symbol, my combination of keyboard and Vista seems to hate the EU. Even my PHONE has a Euro Key. The Euro symbol is actually quite nice - it’s worth about the same as a $ - less than a £ (for now!!) and makes a cheap jingly sound in your pocket.
Okay - so you can win a thousand of them with the shirtcity video competition. Enter it - especially is you have hammy acting skills. You’ll have a good chance of winning - everyone with a couple of days off, a camcorder or phone, and a Mac / PC with basic software should be entering. The closing date s SOOON so hurry hurry. This lazy blogger should have told you about it sooner - but hey - he had stones videos to watch on youtube…
Enter here, or watch my current favourite entry below… hmmm tasty shirtcakes! I’m talling you people - 2009 will be the year Tshirts when video!
You know - like we used to
The Beatles get all the love - but the Stones deserve it. Mick an’ Keef an’ the boys should have died in the 70’s - then they’d be gods too. Probably. But not before summer ‘78. Just for Miss You. Anyway - nice tasteful bra related tshirt from Waterloo - contnuing to provide old rockers and goths with band shirts to love without the scaryness of post sweaty guy vintage!
joy of life
Wow - I love green tshirts. They make me feel alive. They make me feel like a field - covered in cows eating clover. The very embodiment of a nice spring morning. This shirt even has live upon it! How double impact! Hurrah!
Get your significant other a red shirt to wear when you wear this for the festive season. To be covered with festive red and green goodness.
more tee videos please!
I love it. For too long teeland has been languishing in the written word and the tee model pic. It’s time to move into the youtube generation! It’s time to rock the bandwidth. I want to find every teeco working with video. Video is the future guys!
OK maybe I’m getting too excited - so this is a cute little video about how to run a teeco - well, if this is your only source material you’re doomed - but it’s good little intro. From http://www.imahottee.com this isn’t their only video either - check out hotteetv.
And here’s a tip people - if you’re looking on youtube for tshirt videos try searching for “tshirt -wet -shontelle” Those little minus signs are important! You dont want to go blind.
T-shirt chart for December 2008
The last OMG teeco chart of the year, and an interesting one. We deliberately kept it back a couple of days so we’d catch all the blogging about Black Friday sales - and BOY did it make a difference. Threadless off the top spot and 20 new entries in the top 50. There are about 100 extra teecos covered by the full chart this month - which is amazing (well, I think it’s pretty amazing!). Well done to Linty Fresh - obviously working the PR magic with the highest new entry!
As a reminder, this chart monitors all the tshirt blogs and watches which sites they link to from their homepage posts.

For the data geeks out there mintelligence made one change to the chart algorithm for us this month - removing more paid / affiliate / streetteam style links from the counts. This hit Threadless pretty hard - as they appear in most blogger sidebars with a streetteam tag. But I think this makes for a more interesting chart, actually reflecting the coverage new tees get, rather than the baseline popularity of a site.
I’d love to know if you have a gut feel that a teeco got more coverage than is apparent from the chart - so I can better check the results.
Sexy new look
OMGTees.com has a fresh new look for December 08. I hope you all like it.
The main change to the site is that we now have a monthly sponsorhip ‘thing’ going on at the head of the site. I’m exceptionally happy to have Orange Alexander on board as the first sponsor for OMG. This is still my favourite ecowarior tee for when I’m cycling to the supermarket.
Slots are being snapped up quickly - so if any teecos fancy a months worth of exposure to every OMG visitor sometime next year do drop me an email.
blanka outsized timecheck
I recall a short period in my early teens where my brain was SO bored with life that I could tell you the running time of any track I owned, I could tell you the attendance at any game for the past 3 or 4 weeks, I could tell you the two tracks that were adjacent to any track you named from any major compilation album released in the past 4 or 5 years. For two disc sets, the last track on one disc was ‘adjacent’ to the first track on the next disc for the purposes of this game.
This tee from blanka would have been perfect back then. Perfect.
I could list the ingredients in all readily available chocolate bars. I could give you the gear ratios of all the Muddy Fox bikes. Man! What a geek!

uk cafe press opens
Now cafe press shops suck. This I know. But if you live in the UK they have always sucked even MORE because the postage would cost you more than the shirts, and then the nice gentlemen at customs and excise would charge you £30 import duty on a $10 tshirt. Then DHL or whoever the carrier is will charge you an extra £5 for touching the package, £5 for delivering it, and an extra 15% just for fun. That $12 funny Obama shirt ends up costing you more than a small car. So joy - you can now buy cafepress stuff in the UK without all that extra stuff.
Oh - and the code I chopped is DEMINT1 - Oh 2 - and if you know of a good cafepress shop let me know. I wouldn’t want to continue condemning them without due cause.
credit crunchless cassida
So we are in recession. Nice. I never liked money anyway. It just gets crumbled in your pocket and then the guy at the sweet shop says he thinks it’s a fake and you have to go to the atm again. Bah. We’re better off without it. Back to a life of hunting and gathering - that’s the life for me. Use your last 120 EURO on this tee from cassida. If you’re going to hunt and gather, you might as well do it in an expensive top! (not that expensive though - we got a coupon code for you - discount of 20% with : “discount20″ )
And if you worry that 120 EURO might be too much - it has a shoulder print too! At least doubling the cool factor. Also has the advantage of identifying you from behind - so that your fellow uhnters and gatherers will know not to shoot you in the back and eat you.
skyscape wonderland
Winter (apologies southern hemispherians) is upon us and my neck hurts. During the day I’m staring upwards at the geese in their odd scrappy V shapes sqwaking their way across the sky. At night I’m staring upwards trying to remember how to spell “pleidies”, and trying find Jupiter.
This tee from medicated clothing (really sweet little indie tee website) might replace the night time part of that pretty nicely. If you live in the city head out into the sticks this weekend and stare skywards. It’s fun once you get over the freezingness. Honest! Wear more than just a t-shirt though!
If you are planning a trip to view the stars, take some friends and some nice malt whisky in a tiny hip flask and make sure you look up the difference between shooting stars and satellites because it’s wrong to wish on space hardware.
