Design By Humans: the t-shirt networking site


Some people think a t-shirt is the simplest unit of a wardrobe -- to others, t-shirts are a way of life. Design By Humans is for the dead serious t-shirt connoisseur -- you know, the kind of person who has a one-of-a-kind graphic tee for each day of the year. Not only is the site packed to the brim with unique t-shirt designs, but DBH asks its users to vote on their favorites -- that's how the company determines which shirts to print.

The way that DBH transcends the average t-shirt site like Busted Tees is that it doubles as a social networking hub for t-shirt designers and printers. Aspiring screen-printers can submit their own designs and vie for the $750 "Shirt of the Day" prize and then get in the running for the "$1750 Shirt of the Month." Whether you're a designer or an t-shirt addict, this is a pretty incredible tool for finding the perfect shirt.

Styles that Stick: Ironic t-shirts

Your RetardedEvery time a hipster puts on an ironic t-shirt fished out of an Urban Outfitters clearance bin, he or she is making a statement. And that statement is "Yes, I am fully confident that my inner coolness is enough to counter this hideous shirt, and the visual cacophony that it inflicts upon all who cross my path".

It's a loud and somewhat obnoxious statement, to be sure, but there is no indication that this trend will fade any time soon.

To be fair, it's not just hipsters. There are also the pierced heavy metal heads showing their supposed support of Phil Collins across their chests; the scrawny and pale-skinned inviting ladies to check out their gun show and/or pythons, and the girls proclaiming that they truly "heart" nerds when in reality, it's blatantly obvious that they're out of anyone and everyone's league. Anyone with an inflated sense of self-confidence can don one of these shirts and be on their merry way.

Wear your ironic t-shirts well, hipsters and all those brave enough to risk testing their cool mettle. There will come a day when you're too saggy and sad to pull off that little league shirt you picked up at Goodwill. This moment will come and it will strike you hard. All you will be able to do is sit to the side and watch the new generation of hipsters flourish and thrive in the ongoing trend of ironic wear.
