That’s probably a little harsh, and not entirely accurate. Take one look at the threads above and you’ll see she’s more of an artist really. And true to Picasso’s central tenet that “good artists borrow, great artists steal”, Ms Eary has done some borrowing off of none other than yours truly it would seem.

So we’d [...]

OK so I’ve been too lazy to post this before now, but check it out. It was partly what inspired our Strange Aeons design.

Known in cryptozoologist circles as ‘the bloop’, it was recorded by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, around 50°S 100°W in the Pacific Ocean, in 1997. Source unknown. It’s kinda creepy [...]

Now if we had all the money in the world the marketing budget of H&M, the-affair website v2.0 would probably look a bit like this – of course on black not off-white, and without the abstract red shapes and weird particle effects.

As you can see from the Perfect Fools’ case study, they’ve taken our core [...]

Not only is it a bargain, but you’ll be able to brag about having done your part to avert global financial meltdown as well.Its our way of saying thanks for being with us on the journey during our first year in business. We’re warming up for the year ahead, so keep your eyes and ears open as we drop new designs, announce some colabs and other big initiatives to grow the brand.So go on, treat yourself.

You might have noticed that we’re out of stock in most sizes at the moment. We’re really sorry about that, and we’re working as hard as we can to re-stock as soon as is humanly possible. Please bear with us, it won’t be more than a few weeks…

You have to love the Eastern Europeans (*). Not quite as laissez-faire as the Chinese, but pesky things like intellectual property just aren’t a concern. I guess so many years being screwed by the Russians means a few ‘cease and desist’ letters are the least of their concerns!

Anybody going to the OFFF 2008 festival in Lisbon? Nice one centurion. We’ll see you there! If you want to hook up and talk about t-shirts, then get in touch – we love nothing more than talking about ourselves ;)

Apple fanboys pony up, cause we’re officially the very first t-shirt brand with a mobile store, accessible through everyone’s favourite gadget. That’s right, our awesome Flash website is now available on the iPhone. That’s right fanboys, you heard right – FLASH ON THE IPHONE!

So how did we achieve this little bit of tech-magic I hear [...]

Check out this article in the guardian, entitled “Conflict between religions threatens future of the world, Muslim leaders tell Pope”. As you can tell by our Muslim JesusWell we must say we agree, religious intolerance itself is inexplicable, compunded by the fact that it was historically viable to go to war over ideology.

It seems that those red commie thugs at the Communications Workers Union have announced a strike starting today until next Tuesday 9th…. More info here– UPDATE –Thankfully the Royal Mail is back in action (more or less), so if you’re still waiting for your tee, its definitely on its way.

So here we are, June 18 and we’re finally getting the-affair off the ground.
