Druks: "Air Druks"

Druks is a company which is out of Paris, France.  When I first went to the site it was all in French.  Besides visiting France last July and taking it in sixth grade, my knowledge of the language does not go past "bonjour".  You are in luck if you know as little French as I do because the site is also in English.

Somewhat contrary to the last post I did about Paste, Druks, "Cool tees for fresh kids" is all about over-sized prints and bright colors.  I will start by saying that these designs are not going to blow your mind at all!  The designs and text are simple and to the point, which is what I like about them.  Basic and bold is how I look at this brand and I like that.

I chose the "Air Druks" because I love how they used the t-shirt itself to create the shoe (very creative).  The design is well put together and is perfect if you are into kicks.  I am not a huge shoe person, but this shirt just looks right and has some swag to it, which I do enjoy from time to time, haha.  If you like bold fashion you can pick up this Euro tee for $44.09.

Loomstate: "Light As Air"

Let me just start by saying I love Loomstate. To get down to the nitty gritty, Loomstate was founded on the idea of creating incredible clothes using certified organic cotton while using socially and environmentally responsible methods of production. The company was actually started in 2004 by Rogan Gregory and Scott Mackinlay Hahn.

Loomstate's design approach is found on a respect for our environment's ability to balance, shape, and color itself, from the windswept dunes to sun beach stones, combined with an appreciation for nature's mathematically pure "Golden Ratios", evident throughout our environment from nautilus shells to flower petals.

After reading that I am sure you can see how this tee shirt does just what they are trying to do. This tee is called "Light As Air" and also comes in charcoal with red birds. I personally like the pitch black design with the purple colored birds. I recently am into purple I think it is so underused and with the black it just looks awesome to me. Having a few Loomstate tees I can assure you that these are very comfortable and have a great fit to them.

What I love about this design is the freeness (that's not a word) portrayed and the simplicity. You almost feel while looking at it that you want to be at the beach flying with the birds, and in fact when looking at this I almost feel as "Light As Air". I also like how the design is very raw and looks almost like it is a one of a kind print.

One thing to note about Loomstate is that there stuff is not cheap. This particular t-shirt goes for $60 while others go for $62. There is the exception of a Haiti Tee which is going for $25. All I can say is yes the price is rather steep, but you also have to consider that the t-shirts are made with 100% organic cotton and made in the most ethical ways possible. When buying this tee you are supporting a company which is doing some great stuff for the world we live in. I hope you enjoy this!

All-Nice "Chip On My Shoulder"

After doing some brief research I can’t find any information on All-Nice. I can find the products, but no information or official site. I found this t-shirt over at Karmaloop and found it to be pretty witty and clever. The design is simple and sweet and that is what I like. Nobody is going to be blown away by this tee, but it its one that people will smirk at and comment. When I first saw it I must admit I had no idea what it even was, so I clicked on it to see the larger image. The moment I saw the Ruffles style chip, I just smiled. I am sure you will get similar reactions from many people.

“Chip On My Shoulder” is a t-shirt for someone with a little swag, somebody with confidence and that little extra something. The tee comes in red, black, brown, and navy blue. What is unique as about this shirt is that the chip is embroidered and not printed. I like this as it adds to the chip look as well as it is different than your typical printed tee. There is also the All-Nice logo is stitched on the right chest area as well. If you want to make some people chuckle and show that you have that little extra something, you can buy this tee for $30. Enjoy!

Design By Humans: "Modern Style"

I thought in this post I would share something I liked at a more well known site. I found this t-shirt at Design By Humans, also known as DBH.

"DBH is an ongoing t-shirt contest and community where artists and t-shirt lovers can create, buy, and talk aboout everything related to art and t-shirts."

“Modern Style” made me smile the first time I saw it because it was so darn simple. It uses geometric shapes to create this very modern looking design, which I love. Sometimes you want a t-shirt which is flashy and loud. Sometimes you want a t-shirt which is very detailed and in depth. Sometimes you want a t-shirt which is basic and bold; this is just that. The simplicity of this design with the colors is what really makes this work for me. This shirt just has it, enough said.

Some background on this shirt is that it was created by brilliancy, a member of DBH. The only thing we know about brilliancy is that they are from Finland and this is their first big win on the site, so congratulations!

This wonderful t-shirt can be yours for $21 over at DBH. I hope you enjoy!
