Cool Hunting
Out of East London, the-affair is not just another t-shirt label interested in fashion. They do a good job blending social commentary and design to create a statement that goes deeper than the typical tee.
Exploring themes like the futility of religious intolerance, Muslim Jesus (above left) just looks like another image of Jesus, but take a closer look and you'll notice that Islamic crescents make up the image. Their MiniLuv t-shirt (above right) is another take on our present cultural paradigm. Taking references from Orwell's 1984 and the Ministry of Love, the t-shirt comments on the Big Brother attitude of late.
Each design is printed on American Apparel t-shirts and limited to a run of 200, so head over to the-affair quick and get yours for £25.

They're the sort of well cut, finely styled threads that you'd wear to a Mystery Jets gig. Or a...
We love the finer details of the Non-Fiction range. The girls tees are feminine and highly wearable, and feature visuals which are playful and mischievous. Even better, they're "designed and made in Australia using quality fabrics and union-based labour."...

Spring has sprung and summer is hot on its heels, and when I think summer I think t-shirts and when I think t-shirts nothing comes to mind quicker than those that are buttery soft and vintage-inspired, like those from our good buddies at Vintage Vantage. Choosing to do things right and develop their own t-shirt fabric from scratch, combining clever slogans and quirky graphics has...
Absolutely the softest tees we've found outside of the aged threads at Salvation Army are coming from Ohio. The appropriately named outfit, Homage, pays tribute to sports teams and so much more with their clever graphics and nostalgic sentiment printed onto brand new, worn-out cotton tees. Homage began with a license to distribute Ohio State University gear, but with big aspirations and the desire to...
