Offiically licensed LSU stuff on the way as well.  GEAUX TIGERS!

1st Officially Licensed Shirt Coming Soon?!!?

So I'll make a quick semi-annual blog post here.  I've messed around with actual LSU shirts in the past, but just never bit the bullet and went through the formal process to do them.  Until now.  Thanks to my friends at Highland & State, I'll be coming out with a vintage version of the following on white and athletic grey:

And a possible slew of some of these others:

Stay tuned! 

St. Patrick's Day Shirts

Boom. Two designs this year, welcome to 2011 people.

After the thrashing we gave the Aggies in the Cotton Bowl, my attention and focus immediately turned to what could perhaps be the biggest T-Shirt holiday of the year in St. Patrick's Day. Since this whole SbG operation started in 2008 accidentally as we prepared for the parade in Baton Rouge and our party at 3152 Perkins, it is required (by me) that I offer a shirt each year. Due to legal issues and my desire to constantly reinvent the ultra-exclusive Shirts by Guy t-shirt line (or the fact that I just want to make new crap), the 2008 St. Pat's shirt design will never be printed again.

This is a PRE-ORDER, so the shirts will ship in a few weeks. You will have them in your hand well before March 17 I assure you. Email me with any questions or praises, but please no more complaining about the women's fit shirts.

Like always, PLEASE forward to any and every Tiger fan you know since this is a whole grassroots campaign I have going here. Get festive, buy some shirts.

Remember, flat-rate shipping of $5, whether you order 1 shirt or 21 shirts.  Designs will be printed on American Apparel Kelly Green Unisex 50/50 shirts that fit similarly to the model of previous years but much softer.  If you are a fan on facebook, then you are privy to certain discount codes and deals, so if you aren't do yourself a favor and go rent Social Network and learn how to become a fan of Shirts by Guy.

 

New Shirt Design: Old-School FIGHTING TIGERS

Well, my first long sleeve shirt, and my first real blog post in forever. This isn't easy folks; I can't just spit 1500 words out every week. And, plus, tshirts reeeaaaallly aren't that exciting. I figure if I have something great coming out or win a lot of money, I'll let you know. If not, then you can just expect facebook updates with the occasional mass email.

CYBERMONDAY was a colossal success. I seriously made a ton of coin that day, but more importantly, I got rid of 95% of my inventory. I can actually have guests over to my apartment without them sitting on a pile of Italy World Cup shirts. I figured out a few things over the last few months. 1. People like high-end tshirts at really low prices. Like below break-even prices. 2. Girls don't even like the womens-fit shirts, so I don't know why I buy them. And 3. USPS will return a package to me, if I underestimate postage by $0.27 DESPITE two years of overpaying my postage. No wonder they are $20 billion in the hole. I'm 1 pink delivery slip in my mailbox away from taking my talents to FedEx.

Anywho, I've been sitting on this old-school FIGHTING TIGERS logo/design for a long time, but never had the right opportunity to get it involved until now. With the Cotton Bowl coming up, it only made sense. So, get after it folks....an old-school design and warmth for your forearms. $17 is pretty cheap for a long-sleeve cotton shirt, no?

Thanks Landon; Thanks Isner; Thanks Italy....Wait, No

Way to show up, Italy.  Defending freaking champs.  Well played, well played.  We've got two no-name tennis players playing 47 straight hours of competitive tennis, and y'all can't muster 90 minutes of solid team play?  These guys have absolutely nothing left, truly leaving it all on the court.  One dude is a 7 ft behemoth.  I mean, imagine just living a normal life at that freakish size, it would be exhausting.  But he somehow manages to use adrenaline and put his heart on the line and play tennis for 11 hours till he somehow won the match.  Did anyone care who won at that point?  No.  The effort and guts displayed will be remembered forever.  I wish I could say the same for Italy.

You may ask.....You're American Guy, why do you care so much?  Well, you know, when I was creating World Cup shirts, I kinda focused on the teams I positively knew were going through to the Round of 16, and the highly seeded defending champions looked to be a sound investment.  The longer the team is playing, the more momentum they pick up, more and more fans are going to go crazy, therefore buying more of their shirts.  It's T-Shirt Sales 101 people.  But, I should have listened to my friends.  Like my buddy always says, "Never lie down with an Italian because they'll crap the bed."  Or something like that.  Well, I'm at her place right now lying in a big freaking mess.

Big discount people, get these Italy shirts out of my sight.  I'm pretty sure American Apparel sells these blanks for like $20, and you can get them with a cool "Italy" graphic on them for half that.  Yep, $10.  Don't be embarrassed to wear it.  Just tell people it's a 2006 World Cup Champion commemorative t-shirt!

Don't let this overshadow the reedonkulous Landon Donovan stoppage time goal to send us from packing our bags to winning our Group.  In my lifetime, only 3 or 4 truly American moments in sports really stick out in my memory.  In random order, Michael Phelps 8 Gold Medals in Beijing (the relay comeback to be more specific), President W throwing out the 1st pitch after 9/11 in the World Series at Yankee Stadium (from the rubber mind you), Donovan's goal on Wednesday, and the 2002 LSU Football Spring Game.

And, Wednesday was just another typical American day.  First, Landon Donovan waits till the last possible minute to accomplish something that could have been done way earlier.  Very American.  Then a seven foot tennis freak, with lungs of infinite capacity, and tireless legs plays for 3 straight days.  Of course, he's American.

Now, GEAUX USA!!!  We play Ghana on Saturday at 230PM EST, so be sure to start drinking well before noon.   Oh, and buy a shirt.

Pretty cool video of the world's reaction to Donovan's goal below.
