 RISE Worldwide x Trousers London “Mosaic” tee,  Two of the UK’s most exciting brands RISE Worldwide  have come together on a project to produce the MOSAIC tee. Using the RISE text logo as a template, Trousers London were given the opportunity to add their unique creative twist to the garment.

Inspired by the bright pocket linings and premium materials used on all Trousers London garments, the project produced a 3 colour print which referenced ancient Roman patterning. With RISE looking ahead to a UK highstreet launch this coming spring ‘10, the collaboration provided an alternate production route than the fully cut and sew garments that will be released within the next few months.

The MOSAIC tee is printed on a unique t-shirt made from organic cotton / bamboo mix producing a unique handfeel to the garment, and the printing method uses organic waterbased inks. The images below were taken from the Trousers London “DENIM GARDEN” pop up store which was present through London Fashion Week, where the collaboration was debuted! With a limited run of only 25 in existence, these will be snapped up fast!

They are available now through the Trousers London webstore  http://www.shop.trouserslondon.co.uk/upperwear/rise).

As well as apparel, accessories and footwear, the collection includes a limited edition t-shirt, especially designed by giuliano Fujiwara to launch its news area on thecorner.com.

The white cotton t-shirt is decorated with tiny sketches of geometrical shapes, which seem to flow like on the screen of a video-game and recall the necklaces with cubes and wire from Spring/Summer 2010. On the occasion of this debut, thecorner.com features an exclusive video-interview to Masataka Matsumura, where he says: “Internet for me doesn’t represent the future anymore, it is rather a more and more consistent portion of our current time. For this reason I have chosen thecorner.com for my e-commerce debut because I have recognized in YOOX Group an ideal partner, the perfect interpreter of giuliano Fujiwara’s values and spirit.

 I particularly appreciate such a dynamic and expanding commercial reality that can mix an international vocation with its Italian nature. I see this is an important quality as I feel a strong personal and professional bond with this country.”

‘Skeg’ is an independent streetwear company based in Australia. What is Skeg? This is it. 1979, another hot summer’s day; friends are chilling out, smoking, drinking and skating. Music’s playing loud from the tape deck but it’s almost inaudible over the sound of wheels clanging against the pool side.

A condemned house has been broken into, graffiti added to the already paint laden pool-inside; all of this for the sole purpose of skate. It’s all been done: aerials, variables, kickflips, manuals, ollies and end-overs.

We’re here to create our own style, do our own thing. Countless hours of this day have already been well-spent. Trends change, but sometimes they are something more. Skate – it’s a fucking lifestyle.

Skeg is an independent street wear brand that verifies and solidifies self expression, producing threads for people that appreciate fashion with reason and meaning. Nested in the subculture of skate and punk, the term ‘Skeg’ defines a single skater. However ‘Skeg’ is more than just a slang term to describe a skater but rather a movement and a way of life.

New Balance, one of the world’s leading running brands, announces the opening of its first Experience Store on Shanghai’s Huai Hai Road. It is New Balance’s second Experience Store in China, following the opening of its first on Beijing’s Qianmen Avenue last year. Senior executives from the company, including Regional General Manager, Asia Pacific, Darren Tucker, and China Managing Director, Michael Wellman, attended the grand opening to witness this exciting event. “Our goal is to produce the best quality and most comfortable running shoes for our consumers,” explains Darren Tucker, Regional General Manager, and Asia Pacific. Proudly expressing the business philosophy of New Balance, the century-old American sporting brand, he continued, “New Balance sets a new standard of retail excellence within the global marketplace to celebrate our innovation and pay tribute to our heritage. We hope that consumers will engage with our rich brand story that is 104 years in the making.”

The New Balance Experience Store in Shanghai is designed such that a panoramic view of the ceiling unfurls the brand’s past, present and future, telling Shanghai the magnificent story of New Balance’s one hundred and four year history in making shoes.   It displays New Balance’s entire product line: sports footwear, apparel and a variety of sports accessories, available for all seasons and for men, women and kids, bringing the complete New Balance experience to consumers.   

With the opening of this new store in Shanghai and the projected opening of ten more experience stores in major cities across China, New Balance is hoping to bring the idea of running culture to China and will be holding a New Balance “6km Run” in six of China’s major cities.

We offer the chance for artists and the community to interact and inspire each other to really push themselves to develop their respective styles. The idea for our website was born from a mutual recognition that most of these t-shirt sites are taking a very broad approach on their art styles and will practically sell any design that’s thrown their way.

It seems that our competitors’ philosophy is one that heavily emphasizes quantity rather than quality. We are here to specialize in a small sect, and we know what makes a really great t-shirt is great art! So join out site, submit a tee shirt design, rate or buy a tee!

Or if you’re interested in setting up a promotional event with our
community of artists, don’t hesitate to contact us directly

1NE BRAND, founded by Keisa Manning out of Atlanta, GA, is an innovative approach to apparel and other “life essentials”.

All 1NE BRAND items are researched, tried, and then ultimately approved by a panel of creative professionals and everyday individuals from all walks of life. If an item makes it through the approval process and is deemed a suitable “1NE BRAND Essential”, it is then fitted with the official 1NE BRAND logo and made available for purchase. This unique approach to apparel, etc. allows 1NE BRAND to pull great items from the past, present and future, remaining ever timeless.

The initial 1NE BRAND product offerings are a line of T-shirts, sweatshirts, etc. all bearing 1NE BRAND-approved designs and logos. In addition, 1NE BRAND also offers concept-driven “Campaign Apparel” which allows customers to support causes through the purchase of their merchandise.

Assault was started out of Tim’s apartment in Chicago, and the shirts are stored in Craig’s spare room at his house. What separates the brand from many others is that almost all of their shirts have some sort of social or political message behind them (women’s rights, equal rights for gays/lesbians, etc.).

Most importantly to us, we wanted the messages behind our shirts to be subtle, and not too, “in your face” as some political based messages have a tendency to be. After all, no one listens to the guy on the street corner with the megaphone pushing his views onto everyone else. Our target demographic is primarily social/politically aware or active young people between the ages of 15 and 35–both male and female, and we’ve found that that primarily revolves around people who also have a passion for music which is why our blog focuses on music and musicians.

DOXA was birthed in the summer of 2008 when Roman Kovalchuk and Chris Howland discovered one another’s mutual appreciation for clothing. The two guys from Jersey – a pastor/car enthusiast and a musician/skateboarder, wanted to make their dent in the world, by showing people that everyone has an enormous amount of potential and purpose in them. Further discussion led to the idea that clothing is in fact powerful. The two saw that clothing held the potential to be more than just decorative, but in fact influential and thought-provoking.

“We saw that clothing possessed the potential the express ideas and challenge/shape culture. So after some prayerful consideration, the decision was made to pool resources and begin the company: DOXA. (The word DOXA is actually the greek word for ‘Glory’, and can be defined as opinion/view in addition to splendor/brightness).”

Inspired by God, people, changing their culture, and positive thinking, DOXA strives to express their message through the medium of t-shirts – encouraging people everywhere to pursue their purpose.

“The idea for Uranus Apparel has developed by two University of Florida students, who sought to create a product that would promote sustainability with a sense of humor. Despite the funny name, the company is seriously committed to utilizing soy as a more sustainable alternative to cotton fiber” said Natalie San Andres, company co-founder.

Soy is a fantastic alternative fabric choice because it is manufactured from the by-products of soy food production like tofu and soybean oil. This process uses materials that would otherwise be considered waste, thus “closing the loop” on soy. Besides contributing to a more sustainable planet, soy fabric is also extremely soft and comfortable, often being compared to silk or cashmere. It is also more durable and dries more quickly than cotton.

Uranus Apparel soyshorts are sold in sets of three – one pair natural beige, one pair moss green, and one pair black. The underwear come packaged in a burlap drawstring pouch that is both reusable and 100% biodegradable. The set can be purchased on the company’s website or through Amazon. The founders are exploring additional marketing venues.

Ivory Skies is a relatively new indie t-shirt label fresh out of London, operated by Carlo Salanitri and his partner David Davutovic. Their first collection named “Ebony & Ivory” uses their own amazing cut that fits brilliantly, and is made using high-quality cotton fabric. In addition, pride is taken in each garment created giving priority to comfort, durability and last but not least, a damn good looking tee.

“When you think of Ivory Skies, think of a triangle. At one point of the triangle, you got your “freeky deeky”, in one point stands “funking rock” and in the last point of the triangle you got the “uber fashionista”. Ivory Skies is an indie designer t-shirt company that represents the whole triangle as one unit. A label that combines rare ancient work with our own sweet designer cuts. We bring to life what is considered dead and revive it into a rocked out, funked out state of life – the sickest blend of ultra vintage and new age fashion.”

-Ivory Skies
