Sites where you buy tees generally fall into one of three categories. Firstly there are the big well known brands that employ lots of artists. Secondly there are the small independent labels that usually have only one or two artists. Thirdly there are the competition style sites where thousands of artists are striving for your attention. Then there is Shirt Cult which incredibly seems to be smack bang in the middle of all three. Run by just one guy, known only as The Beard, it has a small selection of shirts to choose from like an independent. However it employs the work of various artists like one of the big boys and has the quality to match. There is no competition aspect but you can contact them if you have a design idea. It is quite an enigma. I only found out about them due to the Tee Gazettes 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway last month.
I have just received four tees from them, each one by a different artist with different styles and each brilliant. The printing on each is great, soft without the heavy plastic ink feel a lot of tees have. Three are printed on American Apparel stock while the fourth is on a similar 100% cotton tee.
If you want a seriously cool tee or just want to check out the mystery for yourself click on the picture to head on over to their site.
