ALL THE COOL KIDS ARE WEARING THEM!!

These designs are selling like crazy. Maybe it’s the image of Christopher Walken demanding more of that illustrious sound, the cowbell or memories of your high school keg stand feats or your dream of a big old hug from Nancy Reagan after you just said no. Whatever it is, these saying have become part of our vernacular.

LET’S GET POLITICAL…

You have heard it your whole life: VOTE, IT MATTERS.  Everyone from your 7th-grade Civics Teacher to P- Diddy has tried to drill this into your apathetic skull.  Now you can exercise your right to vote and wear awesome political tshirts. Democracy + Fashion = Envy of the Rest of the World.

Before we draw the ire of some of you guys, let me explain. We know we have more Obama designs than McCain. It is not the most balanced selection, I totally understand.  For the record, this selection is in no way colored by our own particular politics, which to be honest are pretty irrelevant to you guys. As far as that goes, what we can tell you is that we are more 1st amendment than 2nd amendment people and as retailers we are at the mercy of the free market, i.e. on the web Obama merchandise has been outselling McCain (this was BP, Before Palin, which explains why we are unveiling some new designs Monday, September 22).  Until then…Stay informed.

UNLEASH YOUR INNER BADASS!

NEW ARRIVALS! Check out our killer new Chuck Norris, Mr. T and Rocky designs.

You want to know what a badass Chuck Norris is, listen to these “factoids”:

  • “When Chuck Norris does a push-up, he doesn’t push himself up. He pushes the earth down.”
  • “Once a cobra bit Chuck Norris. After 6 days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.”
  • “Chuck donates alot of blood to the Red Cross. Just not his.”

For more fun Chuck folklore, check out this site: http://www.thechucknorrisfacts.com/. We can’t vouch for the veracity of these claims, but we can vouch for the chuckles, no pun intended, we got.

As if that wasn’t enough, we got brand spanking new Mr. “I pity the fool” T designs. You remember him, the ultimate challenger and part of the ass-kicking A-Team. Quite a resume really.

Lest we forget the one that bravely fought off bigger & badder opponents, we got Rocky Balboa tshirts. Pay tribute to Philly’s own quiet, mono-syllabic scrappy hometown hero.

With these new designs, the playground will never be the same…

Can you tell me how to get…KILLER SESAME STREET SHIRTS?

You gotta check out our designs from the coolest street we all wish we lived on, Sesame Street. Elmo, Grover, Oscar, Cookie Monster, even the Count, we got it. Killer gift for all the young tykes in your life or for you to remind you of those Sunny Days!!!!

EXTRA! EXTRA! The vaults at MGM have been raided!

We just got in Vintage MGM Movie designs including: Beat Street, Breakin’ 2, Showgirls & A Fistful of Dollars. These classic designs remind us that critics aren’t always right. In our humble opinion: Showgirls is the best worst movie ever and Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo is the best worst sequel ever.

As if the killer popping and locking and mind-blowing windmills weren’t enough, Beat Streat was further immortalized by Notorious BIG in “Suicidal Thoughts”

“Should I die on the train tracks like Ramo in Beat Street/ people at my funeral frontin’ like they miss me.”

CHECK THEM OUT AND KICK IT OLD SCHOOL:

YOU THINK YOU GOT ISSUES?

Let me be blunt. The world is a little @&#$ed up. Instead of banging your head against the wall, express yo’self with one of our newest issues tees. No better way to say it loud and proud than through fashionable attire.

A little sampling, to whet your conscientious appetite:

Launch!

So here it is… our first official blog posting.  Though we actually launched in May, we wanted to make sure we worked out the kinks and got our sea legs, so to speak.  There is nothing that can make brick and mortar retailers feel like total dinosaurs quite as much as their first foray into ecommerce.   After reading a slew of “Dummies” books and relying on the diverse expertise of Sean Adorno, resident E-Commerce/Marketing Dude, Edwin Huertas, a Renaissance web developer with a venerable “can-do” attitude, Paul Mayer, the creative mind who came up with the design of the site and its sister store in Chicago one year earlier and me, Michelle, the only girl in the lot, left the unenviable task of organizing their left-brain ramblings and keeping the books. I’m telling you, there isn’t enough wine in Napa and Sonoma.
