Threadless Select: The Future Is Feeling by Mike Giles

The latest from Threadless Select, today's release features The Future Is Feeling, a t-shirt and matching headband from Montreal-based artist Neil Doshi. While the regular Threadless shirts rely on the community to vote on the winning submitted designs, the Select shirts are invite only, and bypass the typical Threadless voting process. They hand-pick artists and designers who they think excel in their fields to do an anything-goes tee that can use up to 10 colors, as well as interesting materials like puff, glow and foils on (thankfully) American Apparel shirts. In addition, they're now encouraging the artists to come up with "extras" to come with the designs, like Doshi's shamanistic headgear.

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...
Beautiful/Decay Tees: Aya Kato and Jonathan Nicol
Recently added to Beautiful/Decay's line of artist-designed tees, these two new shirts continue the brand's shirt-as-canvas approach. Australian artist Jonathan Nicol's "Conan Shirt" juxtaposes mythological icons, like vampire teeth, a woman wearing an eye patch and a skull, using a palette restricted to gray, yellow, black, and white. For Aya Kato's second Beautiful/Decay effort, the Japanese artist depicts two mermaids and their watery surroundings...
Socialpest Tees
Set to drop next week, toy designer Mad (known for his block-head figures for My Plastic Heart) is the artist behind the first edition from a new line of tees called Socialpest. The premiere design (pictured here) hints at a Sharpie theme, an ongoing thread in Mad's work. Printed in high-mesh (more supple) gold ink on a soft yet durable blend of hemp and...
