“I usually hate flash website, but the aforementioned Gibson referance had piqued my interest. On this site in question were hosted some of the most awesome t-shirt designes I have ever seen. These things are majestic, and anyone who has read the books to which they are a referance too should really appriciate them.”

“interesting sophisticated shirts… are always well thought and balanced”

18.04.2008 = the boston herald
“Inspired by the nightmarish futures imagined by Orwell, William Gibson and others, these limited-edition tees are sly enough to pass under the radar of chic hipsters but witty enough to be picked up by fellow cyberpunks.”

10.04.2008 = exclusives

10.04.2008 = timuism
“They have clever shirts but what really caught my eye was the flash work.”

04.04.2008 = orik designs

“The-affair was created by two guys trying to break as many rules as possible. Co-creators Zoltan Csaki and David Black have put together a very fresh and often provocative collection that is definitely worth a second look.”

31.03.2008 = patrick rijks
“Les t-shirts de The affair sont super sympas et le site vaut le détour !”

The site breaks away from that typical norm that most apparel sites and stores tend to follow… does a fantastic job of creating an interactive experience that is both clean and informative, one that consumers will not soon forget.”

12.03.2008 = cottonable
“The Affair is looking to be a great destination for literary-minded t-shirt fans… In Corto’s Crash, a line from Gibson’s Neuromancer comes to life, with huge text obscured by complex vectors. It’s almost a vintaged look, which is deeply appealing in a shirt about the future.”

08.03.2008 = Funkyduds

02.03.2008 = Styledash
“These guys aren’t throwing hearts and rainbows on their gear, they’re dropping knowledge… If you’re looking for John Grisham quotes you’ll have to take it elsewhere.”

“(Muslim Jesus) is a very cool design… it’s a clever visual pun that makes the message much more poignant. Check it out on their equally impressively designed website.”

17.10.2007 = CoolHunting
“Out of East London, the-affair is not just another t-shirt label interested in fashion. They do a good job blending social commentary and design to create a statement that goes deeper than the typical tee.”

“I’ve been wanting to a ‘best of’ category for site designs, I just haven’t gotten around to it. When I do, The Affair is hitting the top of the list… But every once in a while a shop get’s it all right. The Affair’s site is nothing short of beautiful. Simple, clean, usable and intuitive… And you know what, they design shirts as good as they do web sites.”

04.10.2007 = funkyduds
“(Muslim Jesus) made me tingle, then smile, then giggle, then pause a little and say “that is FUCKING awesome”. Something that is designed so slick and subtle but has such a sharp undertone.”

27.09.2007 = the serif

27.09.2007 = omgtees
“The attention to detail is supreme - it’s like they’re selling sunseekers, not tshirts… The flash site has a real feeling that the designer has been set free, become his own client, and is using those great ideas no one else would pay for!”

27.09.2007 = phasetwo
“cool t-shirts and even cooler site”

26.09.2007 = lost at e minor

“This should serve as a role model for all those shops that use tiny thumbnails and images that conceal more than they show. On your site, i can smell the fabric of the tees off the screen!”
