Game of...



I wish I had a photo of my breakfast rather than this stupid sign...



Rolled up to Momentum and this thug had been waiting all morning for his Woolstores Forever tee. Grills and dollar bills.


I didn't know how the Game of SKATE was gonna work so we had a little practice round...


This little bastard cleaned up, he beat us all so thoroughly I decided to give him a shirt.

tré day...


Woke up way too early this morning... This is what I came up with.

The colour variation wasn't entirely accidental, however it's not exactly what I was aiming for.


Two people will be rocking these shirts today, if your really lucky you could be one of those people...

a tré a day...

That's funny I thought I just printed a shirt, but I can't actually see anything...It's a phantom print.
Hey there it is again, in the light this time... I think I can just make it out now.
This is printed on the back of the shirt, normally this would be printed on the inside of the shirt, but as you can see this is no normal t-shirt.

This is also on the back. Confused? I know I am...



Now i get it! I think so anyway...

I'll end with something I think we all understand a nice, cold carton of Coopers... Come down to woolies on Saturday and beat me at SKATE and its all yours...

im pretty much just a bum...

a
tré
a day
keeps the
blues away...




After hustling the link for a couple of years they finally said to me "Rowan you have three choices; you can do work for the dole, you can start full-time work or there's the NEIS program..." Anyway turns out NEIS is like a government sponsorship for people who want to start there own small businesses. So anyway I got accepted and 6 months later here I am with my first 10 shirts. This is

Tré Apparel...




I'm not posting the flyer here because it's already on so many websites. Here I'm just concentrating on the shirts, for now. The first four were painted with a brush and a vinyl stencil and then for the final six I graduated to screen printing the design on the front and also the tag on the inside that most people haven't noticed yet...


They are all numbered in the order that they were made but the sizes are all jumbled up, this was a pretty fucked up size run but next time I'll try make it a bit more even. Atleast the message is loud and clear.
