Cool Hunting
EFCI's 2006 Collection by Evan Orensten
On the precipice of summer, Los Angeles-based EFCI has expanded its oft-imitated limited-run t-shirt line beyond its instantly recognizable lion emblem. New themes in the vintage cotton line include Bruce Lee and the partial wavy-haired profiles of Miami beauties. New zoology includes cobras, seahorses and geometric swans. In addition to screen-printing in gold and silver metallics on subdued grey and black, the tees also branch out into a more adventurous bright popsicle-hued range of colors. Even with changes, EFCI maintains an element of high-jealousy as availability is still limited, but look out for these shirts in their online store soon.

Alabama Builds Shirt
Handmade in the U.S. with organic cotton and benefiting Architecture for Humanity's Gulf Coast Project, the Alabama Builds tee is a win-win-win situation.

The...

The pop-up version at fashion week was based on six other Banca de Camisetas that...
