Some Product photo and design work initially intended for an album cover, but never used. With nods to the great pop art of Alan Jones and Tom Wesselman. This artwork in one form or another, will likely appear in a new and upcoming SP project very soon.
“Without beauty a girl is unhappy because she has missed her chance to be loved. People do not jeer at her, they are not cruel to her, but it is as if she were invisible, no eyes follow her as she walks. People feel uncomfortable when they are with her. They find it easier to ignore her. A girl who is exceptionally beautiful, on the other hand, who has something which too far surpasses the customary seductive freshness of adolescence, appears somehow unreal. Great beauty seems invariably to portend some tragic fate.”

The online shop is a new venture for Some Product. We have established ourselves as a design and distribution company primarily dealing with wholesale customers in Canada and internationally. The online shop will focus on limited runs and one-off specialty items that are not available to our wholesale customers. We will post new items periodically, so visit often and hopefully you will see something you like.
All items ship via airmail from Vancouver, Canada.

At Some Product we have always looked at t-shirt graphics as a reflection of society and of the human psyche in general.
About a year ago we started working on a series of graphics and ideas called REVOLT. They are quite stark in nature and design, mostly black designs, printed on gray bodies. Each shirt is individually marked with a large, airbrushed, red X. It has an immediate, almost primal quality to it, reminding one of a door or a window marking, often seen during civll unrest. The wearer becomes the mark.
Whether it’s the IRA, Tiananmen Square or Zapatistas, uprisings and rebellions have always been an integral part of human history and development.
REVOLT tees are available for wholesale now. Please contact us for information.
Special Limited Edition one-off REVOLT tees are available thru the Some Product online store.

Cutting stencils and airbrushing was a huge part of the creative thrust and process for Some Product during 2004 and 2005. Most of the items from that period were airbrushed individually by hand in Vancouver. It was a very exciting and spontaneous period with many designs being one-of-a-kind, or in extremely limited runs. The majority of the collections were sold to customers in Japan. Locally they were sold at El Kartel.
In 2011, Some Product will be bringing back airbrush elements into the collection. (Posts to follow).
Time permitting, there is a possibility of an airbrush workshop at Blim in the up coming months. Check with Blim for any details.

Nostalgia was a 2004 New Years’ Eve party held at the current “Red Gate” space on Hastings St. in Vancouver. Nostalgia successfully strived to be more then another over priced and predictable New Years’ party. It fused innovative performances, site specific set design and art. Most importantly it was a blast!
No need to feel Nostalgic however, as many of the same people involved in 2004, are throwing another New Years’ party at the Waldorf Hotel, which again promises to be something special.
Happy New Years’ and see you in 2011!
About 50-70 of these Nostalgia tees were produced specifically for the event.
