Rob Dobi, owner of FullBleed just announced a massive clearance sale. There are 25 awesome tees on sale for $12 each. Once these shirts are gone – they are gone forever. So if you’ve had your eye on one of these sweet little gems, you better grab them now.
This sale is an effort clear out some space for new stuff he’s working on. And if you haven’t seen his recent Troubled Water design I mentioned in the previous post, make sure you do, as $3 from every shirt sold will go towards helping the animals from the Gulf Coast.

About a month ago David over at SEIBEI released some new shirts. Not only that, he released his first crew neck sweatshirt, which upon hearing about I was a little skeptical. However, after seeing the finished product kind of makes me want to wear a non-hooded sweatshirt for the first time since I was about ten.
Anyway, about the new designs… It’s a very solid release. My favorite of the new designs has got to be the Mutant Uprising. The monster hiding behind the shield just nails it for me. Other than that one, there’s Snack Life which pays homage to Miniboss. There’s also a new take on Jr. Birdman that I feel works a little bit better than the now discontinued version. Along with this slew of new stuff, we also get a new colorway on the radical Superpredator (black print on heather grey).
Awesome stuff as usual. David will also be throwing a sale if he gets 1600 followers on twitter. So get to following him. …and us while you’re there.

Suck! Clothing has dropped a pretty nice looking batch of new tees for their new winter line up. They’ve got some shirts for guys and some shirt for the ladies, so a little bit for everyone.
Pictured above, from left to right, we have Got Cupcakes – A heather grey American Apparel tee with a antique image of a man with a cupcake illustration over it. Next up is my personal favorite of their new tees, 1969. This is a black American Apparel shirt with an oversized print of a man on the moon with text that reads “Pretty Gosh Darn Awesome” which is what this shirt actually is. And finally, there’s one for the ladies called Cookies Bunny. It’s a print of a cute bunny and some cookies (of course) on a dark grey girl cut American Apparel tee.
These aren’t the only new t-shirts Suck! has released, just the ones I thought looked the best. You can check these out and the rest of the their new €20.00 shirts over at their site.
What do you think of the new line?

Andy over at Hide Your Arms (a blog much much more popular than this one) is getting ready to release his first t-shirt. It’s a logo tee, designed by Ray Masaki, who runs Lowdtown. It’s set to be released on January 21st, 2010. I’m sure you’ve read about it by now, but just in case you haven’t, I’m telling you here.
Indie Threads got a really nice boost when I first started it back in 2006 and probably wouldn’t have had the popularity it had back then without him. I wish Andy the best of luck with this new little venture he’s taking.

As you probably already know, Linty Fresh releases a new shirt on the beginning of every month. This is going to change next year (holy crap! next year is only 28 days away!) and Eric is going to be doing releases in seasons, which is typically how most brands do it. So, for his last Decmber release, he’s given us Mt. Killrazorclaw. Not only is it an awesome name for, not just a t-shirt, but anything, it’s an awesome design too. It’s got that triangle idea that seems to be really popular right now too. Let’s hope that his seasonal releases will be even better!
Go pick up Mt. Killrazorclaw by Linty Fresh!

Ugmonk just realeased a really great new shirt. It’s called “There’s More To Life” and it’s a custom typeface that Jeff designed himself. It’s a black (or maybe dark grey) printed on an off-white American Apparel t-shirt. You can check out a cool little behind the scenes blog post over on the Ugmonk blog.
This new shirt, along with all of the other amazingly awesome designs over at Ugmonk will help feed the hungry this holiday season. Each item that you purchase from Ugmonk from December 1 – December 25 will supply one hot dinner for a child. For every 5 items purchased by you and others, Ugmonk will add 2 more meals equaling a full week of hot dinners.
Not only did Jeff release this brand new design, he also released a couple of older designs on new shirts. Two Are Better Than One now comes in Forest on an American Apparel Poly Cotton tee and Lowercase is now available on a black and white pullover hoody. And, to add a little bit of icing to the cake here, you can save 10% by entering the coupon code GIVEBACK09 at checkout. Remember, it’s going to help feed the hungry!

If you’ve read any posts from Indie Threads in the past, you’ve probably figured out that I’m a little bit gay for David Murray (David, I hope I’m not surprising you here). I’ve watched him grow SEIBEI from just the simple Sandwich Dino from a homemade printing press into an underground mega company. I’ve watched his company grow from something no one’s heard of to something people strive to copy.
Anyway, you now know my true feelings. Awhile back, I received some pretty rad shirts from Mr. BEI and they happened to be two different versions of Superpredators. One of them was the Mint and one was the aqua (both of them are now discontinued). These are probably two of my favorite shirts in my closet. I like the Mint one more – it fits perfectly. It’s the perfect length, the perfect width, the perfect colors… it’s just perfect.
Pick up your own Superpredator shirt from SEIBEI for only $22.

Sam Kaufman is the man behind Lead & Light. You might not recognize the name but you’ve probably seen his work. He’s done design work for The Beatles, The Who, Ozzy, and even Rascall Flats. He’s got a really cool style that I can’t quite figure out the right name for. …Collage-ey?
Anyway, he’s got his own t-shirt line called Lead & Light with some pretty killer looking stuff. I’m not entirely what they are, but it’s killer none the less.
Go check out Lead & Light.

I’ve always had a thing for snowmen doing really weird and creepy things ever since I read Calvin and Hobbes when I was younger. There’s just something about taking that classic “Snowmen are so lovable and nice just like Frosty” image in your head and turning it into a super homicidal maniac that gets me every time.
Seventh Ink captured that feeling perfectly with their newest tee titled The Last one Standing. It’s still in pre-order status and is set to ship after December 2nd. There will only be 100 of them printed, so make sure you get your hands on one of these bad boys quick. The pre-order price is $15.
Check out Seventh Ink for more info.
