a daytee experiment
With the launch of daytee.com today, a bunch of lovely people attacked the tees and scored and clicked them into some shape. So I threw the newly ordered tees at animoto and this is what popped out - not bad for a first attempt!
daytee.com preview launch
Our new site softly softly launched today - and you, our loyal and beautiful readers, get a first peek at it.
Daytee.com aims to do one thing - to list every t-shirt released today. It gives preference to those shirts which are available for one day only (or available at a discount for one day only). It has some voting and rating elements to help float the goodies to the top. It’s not a review blog - it’s a tshirt discovery engine!
If you are a tee brand and want to be included comment below. If you’re a tshirt fan hop over and help us out by clicking on some links, voting on some tees, and generally helping us test this baby.
A lot of the content is auto generated, and some oddities and mistakes will no doubt pop up. Let us know if you spot anything weird!
a pictures worth…
You know how it is. You’ve slaved away for days shouting at your designer to make that t-shirt design better. YOu’ve broken your back demanding that the inker gets a crisper finish on the printing. You’ve screamed at the packing girls to fold the shirts more neatly, and make sure that the tag is showing. In short, you’ve sweated blood forcing your team to come up with a killer AAA design for your new line.
Now you need a photo for the website. A killer photo. A photo which will leap into the wallets of the unsuspecting tee surfer. A photo so good - it’ll telepathically grab their Visa details and submit the buy now form for them.
But all the good photos have been taken, and anyway, all the romantic old urban decay warehouse spaces have either been converted into executive apartments or been bought by the tate modern because the spraypainted badger on the back wall might be a banksie.
“I know” shouts the photographer. “we could just stick a couple of models in a bathtub!”
“with water?”
“Of course!”
scary owl tshirt on sale
Wildlife tees are occassionally scary, in an unintentional kind of way. I’m guessing this was intended though. Burglers should all buy this because if you woke in the night and someone was climbing in your window wearing this you’d die on the spot. So then a nice easy job for the burgler, and if they get caught they didn’t shoot the home owner in the head - they must have just died of a heartattack before they got there. Minimal, if any, jail time!
Not sure when the sale ends - but cheap owl at the moment to you’d be a twit (twooo) not to. Ah ha ha ha - you see what I did there… Get it here.
Bow Tie T-Shirt
This is the oddest looking shirt. From the good people at SnorgTees - they’re calling it the bow - tie fighter. NUcely dynamic though - it somehow looks slightly animated. Like it’s a weapon in combo ninos.
pedal power
I recall my first ‘racer’. It was blue, and the straps on the built on foot clip were white. I had to replace them with black ones before going our for a ride - I mean WHITE clip straps. Thinking back, I must have bought a girls bike by mistake. No one sane would put white toe straps on a guys bike. Black toe straps were readily available, so it’s not like they had the excuse that they only had white ones to hand. But I digress…
This tee fits well with the barrage of cycling tees we’ve covered in the past. Being a light colored tshirt it can only be worn while actually cycling by those biking equivs of the Stig - who avoid all perspiration even on a 1 in 10.
It’s from teepay, a new site from howies which is a mix of etsy style cute cottage industry and standard voting site. See if you can figure out the weird countdowns on each design… I still prefer my tee sites with photos of tees, rather than pics of the design - but hey - the voting is interesting.
vee neck at threadless
The end of the world draws ever closer people. Threadless have gone v-neck.
I’m a big tree
This has to be the best name for a shirt in a while. I’m a big tree. From uneetee. Love the whole cut out reversed color thing.
lego warrior
We all love a good lego tshirt. 
This one from mini cassette even has BLOOD on it. Perfect for those weekends spent hunting for those small single nobble thin yellow bits that you like to use to put those blue round transparent bits from the police bike on so that they look like little laser turrets on a battleship…. or is that just me…
Shreddies
Personally I hate shreddies - prefering some wholesome muesli.
But the blog at Shred clothing is a really interesting read and seems to be getting a regular update - I hope they keep it up.
I had been tracking my emails by phone for the past few weeks - only opening the really urgent stuff - so when I checked my stack of unread items today I find that Jon over at shred had sent me about a million excited emails about Shred. So I just had to give him some post happiness!
Oh - and if you’ve emailed me recently (especially with a new teeco / shirt) then feel free to resend it or dm me on twitter. Some good stuff could have slipped through my net.
YouTee?
Wearing a video on your shirt has two main advantages.
You prove to the kool kids that you don’t watch teevee, just youtube. Secondly, you don’t offend the oldies because they just don’t get the reference.
So shirts taste good is a great source for these shirts with the unguessable history. Unless you get this one. I’m pretty certain even a half blind 100 year old would guess that this isn’t all that wholesome!
killer popcorn
I hate to do this to you people - but you can’t buy this shirt anymore - it’s in the RIPT graveyard. Maybe they’ll do a zombie edition if you ask nicely. Would be kinda apt - given the nature of the death inducing savoury snacks.
RIPT is another site which only sells a shirt for 24 hours - which I think is cool in one way - but means I miss a LOT of cool stuff because there are just too many sites to check every day.
If anyone running these sites would be interested in an agregator thing OMG could knock one up and punch every 24 hour shirt onto the page every day so people only had one MUST CHECK to look at. I’d build it just to save me the time checking so many sites. Comment / email if you like the idea.
New facebook url
Vanity URLs are the future. Well, unless you’re any site other than facebook in which case they’re the past - FB must have been the last place ?id= lasted. Actually - there MUST be a tshirt in there somewhere…
Anyway get on over to the new address, it’s so lonely over there! http://www.facebook.com/omgtees
markup shirts rule
I do enjoy a nice markup shirt - especially with a good implementation. There’s a place for simple type only shirts, but this shirt from ruby red is a step up from ascii.
