Hecklewood T-Shirts by Mike Giles

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 Vegas. They will be showing new cut-and-sew goods, new Hecklewood tees and hoodies as well as the new line of Tanner leather goods including messenger bags, laser-etched wallets, and other goodies.

My favorite is their “Miami Vice”-inspired “My Only Vice" tee (pictured below right). Like most good things, these are produced in limited quantities so don't miss out.

Solid Gold Rags T-Shirts
by Valery JosephThe designers behind Los Angeles-based Solid Gold Rags are sparing us the search for the perfectly worn-in t-shirt with a new line of beautifully tattered tees. Screen-prints of pop-culture icons—French singers and muses Françoise Hardy and Serge Gainsbourg front two of the collection's pieces—the almost criminally soft shirts. Co-founders Perry Shimon, and Oliver Kupperhe seek to create quietly personal, everyday pieces that...
Public School T-shirt and Jacket
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),...
