LA's favorite article of clothing doesn't have to be boring. And neither do you.

Yawn. Why does everyone wear all the same stuff? If we see one more DC, Ed Hardy or Adidas shirt we're gonna scream. Really. Save us.

Artist-designed tees are the antidote to those t-shirts with brand names all over them. Forget being a walking billboard for some company. Instead, show your individuality and know the name of the person who designed your shirt! Really, the new style is a t-shirt that makes everyone say, "Ohmigosh, that is SO cool! Where did you find that?!"

The answer is to get 'em from the places that support the artists themselves, so the artist can actually benefit from your buying their shirt--while you get the coolest threads in the building. Vendors like Poketo, Giant Robot, Munky King and Upper Playground work hard to get artists' work out there.

Most of the designs on these tees are pulled directly from the artist's own original works of art, which you can often see either on the artist's own website or even at local galleries like GR2, project:gallery, Nucleus and more.

So pick out a tee from our gallery, above; we guarantee it (and you!) will become an object of lust for all your friends. 'Cuz everyone loves it when you've got your own style.
