This little nugget of popular culture was my favorite find on a recent trip to Value Village. What I particularly love about this tee is that it proves once and for all what I always suspected. The Situation clearly stole the whole “sunglasses worn down your nose thing” from The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment!
About 6 years ago Some Product was asked to appear on MTV with models wearing some of our designs and give an interview. I asked my friends, Justin Gradin and “The Doctor” to come hang out, and maybe do a little “modelling”. They showed up wearing these amazing Megaphone gas mask contarptions, that “The Doctor” had made and to everyone’s amusement, scared the shit out of all the MTV wussies. Both are wearing the Some Product AG line released in 2006.
Promo shot for the now almost legendary Some Product produced club nite – “Your Older Brother’s Bedroom” circa 1999-2000. Man, wish I still had that Ozzy tee, I traded it for a lame bootleg AC/DC tee. Bad decisions were made.
I was asked to do a carnival type of an attraction for the Halloween Midway at The Waldorf Hotel. This whole idea and concept came to me withing 10 seconds of being asked. It turned out very very close to the initial concept and rough sketch. The weekend turned out to be a lot of fun and “Ballistico’s Ball in the Hole” game worked out amazingly well.
So excited to be working and collaborating with a good friend and an amazing artist – Mr. Ronan Doyle. This is a preview of just one of the tees for the upcoming season. I will be posting more as this project develops.
My grandma is 88 years old now, and has been a hair dresser for most of her adult life. Recently she started taking some art classes. The results are eerily reminiscent of one of my favorite artists – Henry Darger.
Having Rod Stewart’s face on both front and back of a shirt is a sure sign of high intellect and refinement.
God, I watched a lot of “Married with Children” episodes! This shirt absolutely rules. I offered my friend – the amazing pinata master Meaghan Kennedy my left pinky finger for it. Sadly, she refused.
One of my new favorite people I’ve met lately is an Italian guy named Antonio, hanging out at The Waldorf. If you get a chance, find him there ( he’s always wearing cowboy boots and smoking out front), say “Ciao Antonio” but, Do Not buy him a drink! This is a great tee he was rocking last Saturday nite. Le Fuck it All !
Just can’t beat the raw simplicity and beauty of an old school strip club tee.
