Don't Be Fooled By $54 Imitation Toboggan Shirts

Rohn, having full knowledge of everything T shirts, passed this along to me earlier. Seems Chip and Pepper's brand new 'Men's 80's Lines Tee' bears a striking resemblance to Toboggan's quasi-branding graphics. As far as I'm concerned imitation is the highest form of flattery, and I'm sure it's purely coincidental, but it's fun to entertain the idea of a Toboggan influence.

Below are some graphics I've used over the past year, including the background image from Toboggan's Myspace page. Take a look, decide for yourself, and let me know what you think.

T-Shirts are All the Rage

Every one's got t shirt ideas. I know you do. Seems nowadays everyone has been tempted by the easy start-up, low-cost, potentially lucrative business at one point or another. But if you don't have the time and resources to go big business, you can still channel your creative energy into garment form- and help out the Collingwood Art Center at the same time.

Kelly is calling for artists to make t shirts that will be sold during the Old West End Festival, with 25% of the sales going to the Collingwood Art Center. Minimum is twenty shirts, and the wearables should be somewhat OWE themed. Who knows where this could lead you.

Speaking of tees, the above photo comes to us from down under. Toboggan's been diggin' the shirts over at Young Lovers. Stop by and check them out.
