Cool Hunting
Though we've loved Salvor T-shirts and pillows for a long time, it was only last week that we had the chance to meet Ross, the creative mastermind behind the brand. A man of many interesting projects, he ties them all together through his attention to graphic detail. This Fall he's introducing a few new animals to his repertoire of t-shirts. Dog Skull is printed in brilliant silver ink on gray stock, Pigeon is a simple black on pink and The Rack uses safety orange on beige. The t-shirts are also going to be printed on a new custom stock that is super soft and tubular (which means there's no seam down the side and therefor no torquing).
Shop list after the jump.
Salvor is available at:
New York: Steven Alan, Odin
LA: Apartment No. 9, Fred Segal
Chicago: Apartment No. 9
Berkeley: August
Austin: By George

SoHo NYC based Salvor continues to rock my world, this time with their Spring-Summer 2006 collection. For some it may be a bit early to start thinking about T-Shirts, but for me these prints are more about artistry than seasonal fashion. The designs are delicately screened on their own super soft stock to avoid that crunchy-screen feeling. Petals (above, left. click to zoom) is...
A deceivingly funny t-shirt from Kaws using his trademark Mickey Mouse-esque cartoon hands, it just about sums up the complicated set of feelings I have about New York City (and everything else) these days. (Also see Public School's similar expression of dueling emotions.) Available in black and white from We Sold Out for €65. via Highsnobiety...
Leading the way in grown-up street wear, Public School recently released Fall/Winter 2008, their second collection. We've been into their clean cut but somewhat edgy designs since the label launched last year; the quality materials and subtle details set them apart from the rest of the rack at Barneys or Fred Segal. Their new NY Hearts Me t-shirt (not available until next Fall 2008),...
It's hard for a t-shirt operation to define itself when it seems like everyone and their friend-who-dropped-out-of- art-school is printing their own line. That hasn't been a problem for Brooklyn's Death/Traitors, who recently added to their inimitable collection of loosely cult-themed streetwear. The spring line offers a healthy dose of satanic messages and roman numerals, with enough pyramids and all-seeing eyes to fill an...
Collectively, Team CH is more of a dog person, but we do love a three-legged feline on a t-shirt—especially when profits support pooches fighting cancer. Designed by L.A.-based artist Amanda Viselli, the cat-in-a-hat graphic tee helps Sonia Zjawinski's ongoing effort (dubbed I Heart Tripods) inspired by her own dog Lulu's battle with bone cancer. Printed on a heather blue Alternative Apparel crew neck, the...
Portland, Oregon-basedHecklewood is a streetwear label born from an obsession with fringe subcultures. Raised on a steady diet of art, pop culture, and punk, their collection draws inspiration from their youth in the '80s and '90s and the cultural happenings of today. Hecklewood and its two sister brands, Tanner and Off-set will be making their debut at the Pool Tradeshow 27-29 August in Las...
