Usually we’d break down every piece for you. But UVT has already done a great job at doing that.
Off With Their Heads tee – $30
“Back in the day, if you wanted to send a message, you stuck a motherfucker’s head on a stick. People just don’t do it like that anymore. Sure you get beheadings here and there, but where’s the flash?”
RIOT SQUAD tee – $30
“People will find plenty of reasons to form a little protest here and there, and that’s great. Let ‘em know why you mad. But there are people around the world who are taking to the streets because their very rights are being threatened by their government. Facing beatings, arrest, torture or even death, they risk all this simply to have the chance for their voice to be heard.
Unless you’ve been under a rock lately (we wouldn’t blame you), the people of Iran have been doing just that and using camera phones and the internet to circumvent their government’s media control. A young college student named Neda, attending the protests with her teacher, was shot in cold blood by the pro-government militia while an onlooker filmed the event. The video circulated around the world within hours and her death became a battle cry for the throngs of protesters that refused to back down from their oppressive government.
Tee features “RIP NEDA” on the sleeve, and a green colorway in support of the protesters.”
Crowd Control tee – $30
“You know those old black and white movies where you’d have an opening scene and all of a sudden a super bright title would zoom in and blind the shit out of you? That was kind of the inspiration behind the aesthetic here. The photo however, is from a miner’s strike in the UK where they were protesting unsafe working conditions and low wages.
Of course you know how those always end up. The rozzers (cops) came to crash the party in the style they know best.”
MAGNUM tee – $32
“There really isn’t much we can say about this. No matter how many times we reprint this tee, no matter what color it is, it sells out. There’s something to be said about a strong message represented in a simple way.”
