If you have been following @RudeRetro on twitter you will know that about a week ago a t-shirt arrived from @altmantees. If you check out Altman Tees Twitter page you will notice that he has yet to tweet. Anyway let’s start with the t-shirt that was sent for a change.
The t-shirt is a standard American Apparel so definitely no complaints there. The design is what it is all about though and what is it all about? At first glance I thought it was a football (American kind) and then I thought it looked like a football boot upside down. That’s a bit strange so I thought perhaps it was a blimp\airship. On the right side of the design it looks more round than the oval of the left and brings to mind a flying saucer. But what is connecting it to the ground? It looks like it is connected to the ground. It could be some kind of new-fangled traffic lights. Is that a ladder going up?
As you can see this seemingly simple design is rather complex and I imagine it and all the other tees at Altman Tees are real conversation starters and isn’t that what t-shirts are all about. We wear particular t-shirts to tell others about our personality…or because they were a gift. So if you are sick of your college humor tees and you want something a bit more stylish you should definitely check out Altman tees. At the moment there are 6 tees on offer all with equally (as if you can quantify it) interesting one color designs.
So what is the image in the Aspire an abstract of? My guess is that it can be whatever you choose it to be.
