Onyj by Josh Rubin

Onyj-Brown Onyj-Hoodie

After combining iconography inspired from a medieval warrior's ruthless spirit of determination and the sleek, simplicity of a post-modern urban hoodie, Algerian born artist Obi Onyejekwe, has created a bold and hip line of apparel called Onyj. Made of high-quality, preshrunk cotton, the t-shirt and sweatshirt lines are all limited editions and are decorated with a mixture of designs that evoke the illuminations of a 14th century manuscript and the weaponry you might find in a battle on Tolkein's Middle Earth. The black and gold Onjy Weapon Hoodie ($85) and the Onyj T-shirt ($25) have a great fit and are definitely worth checking out.

It's...
Umbro by Kim Jones
Umbro's known for making England's official football kit, but it's the brand's off-the-field designs by Kim Jones that have caught the eye. Drawing on terrace culture, Jones has created a capsule collection especially for the World Cup. Sticking largely to patriotic red, white and blue, the range liberally uses the red English rose motif, like in the hoodie above and the football below. Elsewhere, on...
Threadless Contest
Last week we stumped you with the trivia question about the magazine editor who has an 800+ collection of tee-shirts that he's been working on for over 20 years. Another clue is that a synonym for the three-letter title of the magazine is "gob." Submit answers here to win a hoodie.And you still have until 25 February to get three shirts or more for...
