New ISO50 Shirts

There are a some new shirts up at the ISO50 Shop and I thought I’d announce them here before they go out in the newsletter next week. First is “Syv”, which is printed on the new American Apparel Tri-Blend “Coffee”, which is sort of a dusty version of the normal heather grey tri-blend with a slight coffee tint. When I first saw samples of these I was immediately hooked. The color and feel are exactly what I have been wanting for a while now and they compliment the design I had in mind well.

Next is the new Vuela colorway, black on black. I have been using American Apparel black shirts for a while now and while they have their own thing going on, I wanted to be able to work with a shirt that felt a little more vintage. I found a company called Alternative Apparel (no points for originality on the name…) who offer some pretty interesting colors. I like how their swatches aren’t truly red, or blue, they’re sort of a distressed version with a little color shift. For the Vuela shirt I went with their “Earth Coal” color, it feels sort of like a vintage concert tee, nice and soft with a slim cut. Definitely of the most comfortable tees I own.

All designs are available in men’s and women’s sizes. Quantities are limited so if you’re trying to get in on these before the holidays, now would be the time.

I have a shirt or two printed on Alternative Apparel shirts – they are so soft and so light and held up well to washing/drying on delicate settings. Nice switch.

Totally going for the “Syv” on the great coffee blend. Lovely as all heck. Great simplicity Scott.

mbithi-
I have them printed by a friend’s company. They’re very good and I work closely with them throughout the process. I don’t have anywhere near the room for the equipment in my studio.

Joaquim-
yes it does… It’s actually sort of an homage to my trip to Norway (Syv is 7 in Norwegian too)

Christel-
My brother is wearing a medium in the top one and I’m wearing a large in the second. The alternative apparels run a little smaller that american apparel. For instance, I wear a Medium in American app, but a large in Alt app. Although, I like a snug fit, and I never machine dry my shirts , only hang dry…

just a heads up in the shop featured page it says the syv shirt is 20$, but when you click the link it says 23$ just a typo.

I’m curious as well. I really like the Vuela shirt, but I have no idea what it means…and I’d hate to buy a shirt without knowing what’s really on it.
Might have to make an exception for this one anyway ;P

I didn’t know this order came with 3 free pieces of Double Bubble :)
Thanks – great T-shirt, guess I’ll have to figure out what it means some other time.
