I received an interesting tee from R.A.G. New York last week. While the I’m not biggest fan of ‘Affliction’ styled/graphic urban stuff, I like the Prisoner Crow sample. Cool foil/silver printing over a graphic that fills the full length of the tee front and back. R.A.G. has been around a long time and has a number of brick and mortars throughout their home town of New York. They’ve got a lot more than tees as well, some interesting polos, hoodies, short, blazers, you name it. Everything is very affordably priced as well.

It must be the summer heat getting to me, but I’ve just looked down to see I’m wearing a tee I’ve yet to review. It happens to be the guitar tee shown above, and sad to say, but it’s not the first time I’ve worn it. Somehow it slipped past my desk and right into rotation. It comes courtesy of the guys at Endangeredwear.com. Not the first time we’ve posted on Endangered Wear and I doubt the last. Couple more picks after the jump including hoodies - for your post summer fashion needs. Give them a look.

I usually end up posting reviews before I spend much time wearing the tee, but I’ve been so back up I think this shirt has hit the wash more than a few times already. It’s just one of those simple type tees that works - for me at least. Series Regular comes from You Are So Famous.com, a snarky take on celebrity pop culture. And I rave about the occasional super soft tee, but hands down, we have a new winner. The ‘Vintage Soft’ tee Alternative Apparel lives up to it’s name. Nice.

With subject matter ranging from social justice to organic foods and alternative energy, CERTAINTEES is creating apparel for the socially responsible.

Check out there FAQs pages for a lot of great info on using bamboo for clothing. Very cool.

Life comes at you fast. The perfect statement to sum up Crooked Monkey. Not only does the phrase make up an irreverently funny tee, it is also a good description for the rise of Crooked Monkey. These guys should serve as inspiration for all the budding designers out there. In just two short years they’ve managed to land themselves in the likes of Urban Outfitters, Nordstrom, Lord and Taylor, Kitson and Fred Segal . Plus another 500 or so retailers.

Our review tees really tell the story well. Quality shirts. Funny, kind of vintage styled graphics and a little bit of harmless edginess create the perfect mix. Hit em up. www.crookedmonkey.com.

This is the second time we’ve thrown some Vintage Vantage on our backs. And our backs couldn’t be happier. Same goes for the front. Our samples tees were the Army Men and Vice Versa. We marveled in our last review at the softness factor, and these are just as good. We also noticed that the Vice Versa shirt has gone tagless. Hopefully this is will become standard, as our only complaint was that the tags were a bit on the prickly side. The printing is great and the fit is kind of a vintage thing without being feeling too tight. These tees literally as so soft they kind of melt around you anyway. And now without a tag it’s perfection.
