graphic t-shirts

[gaseousclay]

I know this forum is mainly about gentleman's clothing and the like, but I thought i'd switch gears for a moment and talk about graphic tees. i'm pretty sure most of us here at some point during the week wears t-shirts. i'm particularly fond of graphic tees from places like shirt.woot, threadless, teefury and last exit to nowhere (for you movie geeks out there). the t-shirt, much like their dressier brethren, is like a canvas that shows a little bit of your personality. the question is, what type of personality do you have? are you into athletic tees? music tees? pop culture tees? plain tees? I like fun, humorous, clever t-shirt designs first and foremost. if it can get people to laugh or evoke a reaction then i'm golden.

some of my favorite t-shirts:

No input here, but your last picture didn't survive the copy-paste. I think this is what you were after:

I mainly buy plain shirts these days, or ones with small logos on the breast. But, I convinced a buddy to buy this one:

My favorite:

This is one of my favorites, though the song reference admittedly makes it seem a little dated now:



That WWF shirt is awesome, though!

I'm a huge t-shirt fan, both for comfort and individuality purposes.

I've ordered from Threadless before although I've tended to stop paying attention to the site b/c they seemed to have stopped sending me weekly update emails and frankly I don't like the designs they tend to be choosing nowadays.

Perhaps the three most favorite of all my t-shirts are the three I snagged from the Venture Brothers T-shirt club last season. Guild of Calamitous Intent, DEAN!, and the 24 tribute shirt. Unfortunately the GoCI logo was done in sparkly gold paint and it started wearing away pretty quick.

They usually have good shirts at giantrobot.com, at least they used to before I stopped buying them (ran out of dresser space).

This was funny.

I got this one once ... gets lots of curious glances and comments. Oh, and of course ... I got the pink (heh heh 'pinko', right?) version of the shirt.

I'm a big, big shirt.woot.com fan. I've only bought a few since discovering it, but I love the grassroots style of competition.

And we cannot forget this one-

I don't know how easy it would be copy and paste the pictures, but hopefully descriptions should suffice (then again, I just woke up, so maybe I'm just being lazy.)

My newest favorite is my Black Lantern t-shirt. It's from a Green Lantern story, and only has the Black Hand logo. A slight second is Red Lantern, but oddly, the cut is different from the Black one (Google Blackest Night for full info.)

My all time favorites are Superboy and the Death of Superman. Superboy is basically a black t-shirt with a red logo. His current costume is the t-shirt and a pair of jeans. Death of Superman is from the period.

Last year, I started wearing t-shirts coupled with button down shirts. One favorite is a white shirt that says "I Have Issues." I wouldn't mind pairing my Stryper concert shirt with another button down, but the cut to that tee is weird.

yeah, I only discovered shirt.woot in the last year or so. I wouldn't really classify them as a 'competition' site, as they license their designs from my understanding, unlike threadless which holds proper competitions whereby anybody can submit designs. either way, shirt.woot has great prices which is what it all boils down to for me. the designs can be hit or miss but when they get a good one it's good. i'm bummed out missed out on the bladerunner stout beer tee....now it's sold out

i've only ever purchased one tee from them and it was a Deth P Sun shirt.

[Confuzius]

I wear Threadless shirts exclusively, although I don't like the recent ones as much either.















I've got a bunch more too that I can't remember off the top of my head...

[jonwings]

While these days I am more of a solid color T-shirt guy, I have a couple favorites that make it in the rotation. They are my Paul Westerberg "Folker" concert T-shirt and my Rock-Scissors-Paper-Lizard-Spock shirts.

The rest of mine are mostly used to work out, sleep, or used as an undershirt when I need to do laundry.

My all time favourite t-shirt is my WW2 one:

Big picture of Airborne troops on DDay and the line "The boys are back in town!" :D
