Three Hundred and Sixty Five Shirts

Uniqlo

I present to you the first t-shirt purchased since the end of last year’s project. This little mustache man was created by Marcus Oakley for Uniqlo.

Uniqlo is a clothing retailer based in Japan. I was lucky enough to step into their larger than life SOHO store back in November and needless to say, the selection of awesome shirts brought me out of my shopping slump. Great design, by a respected artist, and it was only $15 bucks. Overall, great quality fabric, nice printing, and a little tag detail.

And I’m Back

Wow. The 365 shirts project came and went quite fast, and it’s safe to say that I lost my passion for posting. However, after receiving quite a few emails from some loyal readers I’ve decided to resurrect 365 shirts and it’s t-shirt lovin’ ways. From time to time I’ll be posting about recent t-shirt purchases, where to shop for cool shirts (for the best price), reader submitted shirts, and anything else that’s cool and t-shirt related.

New Blogs Coming Soon

Hey everyone! After 366 days of blogging fury I took a well deserved vacation. I definitely needed to recharge and rekindle some of my creative energy. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about my next long term project, and It’s safe to say that I will carry on the spirit of 365 shirts. I’ll post more info soon. It’s going to be charitable, involve kids , clothes and design. Stay Tuned…

I’m still working on my next blog , “Best Places to Shop in Bmore.” A few more photos and it will be complete!

Just because I could…I present Shirt 366, a two button henley made by Stock. Keep checking back, I’ll be crafting a couple year end posts about shopping in Baltimore, the Guinness Book of World Records, and more.

DAY 3HUNDREDAND65!

Hopefully the colorful gradient filled text says it all. I’m very thankful for all of the support that I have received over the last year. Thanks to those who wrote me emails, donated shirts, commented, contributed money and just “tuned in.”

Even though I may wake up tomorrow and wear a different shirt to celebrate the leap year, I feel like there is plenty to celebrate today. I stuck to the mission of this blog, to wear 365 shirts over the course of one year, blog about it, and raise some money for Alzheimer’s research.

Day Three Hundred and Sixty Four

Let’s make it official…365 Shirts will continue on for the next two days. Yes tomorrow is day 365, however, because of the leap year I have decided to make my last day this Saturday, June 21st (Day 366).

I’m wearing my last Nike shirt of the year today. Nike is definitely one brand name that I don’t mind sporting across my chest.

Ladies and Gentlemen, The worst shirts of 365 shirts:

#10 - Skulls?

#9 - Thursday = Lame

#8 - Miller Lite = Bad

#7 - Ill-Fitting and Lame

#6 - Questionable design on back…Too much attitude

#5 - One to Waste

#4 - In the running for worst shirt ever…

#3 - What the butterfly?

#2 - Need I say more…

Day Three Hundred and Sixty Three

Can it be? More Stripes? It’s true… I had to fit in one more striped shirt before the end. I really like stripes, I know I have about 6 or 7 striped shirts, but I’m a firm believer that too many striped shirts is not a problem. Anyway, I also wanted to say thanks for the feedback on the top ten shirts of the year. A couple of voiced your opinion and let me know of some of your favorites that didn’t that didn’t make it.

Look out for tomorrow’s post, Ten Worst Shirts of the Year.

Day Three Hundred and Sixty Two

Mike — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 12:04:11 +0000

It’s hard to believe that in 3 days (4 if I acknowledge the leap year) the 365 shirts mission will be complete. Today I wanted to share with you my top ten shirts of the year. These are definitely shirts that complete my collection…

#10

Of course the throwback Oriole shirt is my favorite! I’m a true Baltimore Boy! I’m curious to see what some of your favorites are. Don’t be shy, leave some comments!

Day Three Hundred and Sixty One

Today’s shirt was made by my roommate, and graphic designer Kelly Horrigan. Check out the really nice custom type! I really like the treatment of the blue and green. It look’s like a gradient (split fountain print) but is really just two colors printed next to each other. Good work!

I’m not really sure what this shirt means…or is supposed to be, but thanks for the shirt Anthony!
