The Italien brand CosaCerta just released their spring / summer 2011 collection. The brand name is related to a Kierkegaard quote, «Nella vita l’unica cosa certa è la morte, cioè l’unica cosa di cui non si può sapere nulla con certezza.» meaning, the only thing for sure that we’re all gonna die. For sure CosaCerta is not really dealing with happiness, but they create really inspired designs.

In the old version of Rawtee, I already speak about the Netherlands based brand No Ono (here), these days they released their Spring / Summer 2011 collection: She Went Bananas.
“We make fashion porn” trust the tagline, that’s what they do, The new collection consists in 3 tees, with topless women playing with banana on it, your imagination works, isn’t it ?
But if your boss don’t wanna see nipples at work, No Ono had create the CensorPack, 2 badges you can pinnend on ladies boobs, to me it’s a shame, but some situation requires it…

Fuck My Shirt is a tee shirt label created by Marius Jopen (AKA farbenbaden), Marius is a gifted designer as you can see. But who can be better than Marius to introduce Fuck My Shirt ? It’s time for the interview:
Rawtee: Hello Marius, could you introduce you & your label “Fuck My Shirt” ?
Marius Jopen: I am a graphic designer and I am currently working in Zurich in Switzerland. I will continue my studies in September in London or Amsterdam. Probably Amsterdam. I do t-shirts for many years and founded fuckmyshirt in 2008. I chose the name fuckmyshirt for several reasons. It sounds great. It stays in mind. And it is a good topic for illustrations. I can do lots of experiments.
R: Where do you find inspiration ?
MJ: Nearly everywhere. Really. This word is so full of stuff. Advertisements, fashion, people passing by, the internet. I cannot even count… If I have an idea I ty to keep it in my mind and work with it.
R: You also created a second label “fiftylines tee shirt”, are you a tee shirt freak ? please tell us more about fiftylines
MJ: Actually I am not the typical t-shirt freak. I do not spend money for thousands of t-shirts. I spend my money for good food instead. I founded fiftylines with a friend of mine one and a half year ago. We produced a lot of t-shirts. But ony two designs. After a while we really got fed up with our two designs. But we still had to sell them. That was not very funny. I really like to design shirts and also do some marketing. But if you have put a lot of money in your business it becomes more and more serious and you think twice about everything. This could slow down your creativity process…
R: Your labels are just a little part of your work, what’s your project ?
MJ: My big project - oh my god, yesterday I thought about that - is: Become a good graphic designer. Start my own business. Not to work for bad commercial companies. Work with artists. Spread my designs. Be happy. Be good to people.
R: a last words to our readers ?
MJ: Really think about that: What goes around comes around.
Thank you so much Marius.
So now, you know what to do, go check the Fuck My Shirt website…

Bonjour à tous!!!
Un petit mot pour vous tenir au courant de l’opération Help Japan.
En toute transparence, nous pouvons vous annoncer que pour le moment, nous avons récolté 150.47 € (n’étant pas assujettis à la TVA, c’est ce qui nous sera payé par Comboutique, et donc ce que nous reverserons à notre partenaire la Croix Rouge Française).
Nous remercions du fond du coeur tous ceux ayant accepté d’acheter quelque chose - à vrai dire, nous pensions pouvoir donner autour de 50 euros et non le triple.
N’oubliez pas, l’opération se poursuit jusqu’à fin avril, donc, si vous voulez vous aussi adopter un t-shirt, un mug, ou des badges, n’hésitez pas! :) Ce sera votre beau geste, ou votre BA du jour…
Dans tous les cas: nous voulons vous mettre à l’honneur, vous, qui avez bien voulu participer à cette opération. Envoyez nous votre photo, avec l’objet (ou les objets, hein, comme vous voulez ;) ) et nous en ferons une galerie! Une galerie de généreux donateurs :)
Voici le mail à qui envoyer: blograwtee [at] gmail [point] com
A vous!
I’ll be back in a week, coz’ this is what I’m gonna do the next 7 days
but I want you keep donating to Japan, or buying on the store I just created http://www.comboutique.com/helpjapan if you wish. (100% of the profits is going to the Red Cross)
See you guys and girls for more indie label, and cool tee shirts

Bonjour à tous!
Inutile de vous rapeller les faits à propos du Japon - cette catastrophe est sur toutes les lèvres…
Beaucoup de graphistes français, ou outre-atlantique, ont réalisé des affiches afin de pouvoir lever des fonds et ainsi soutenir, du mieux qu’ils peuvent, les organisations humanitaires.
Je peux enfin vous annoncer que nous ne sommes pas en reste - Frankie a réalisé un superbe design, dont il vous avait d’ailleurs déjà parlé il y a quelques jours. Nous ne le mettons pas sur des affiches, car une affiche reste bien rapidement dans son rouleau de carton… mais sur des t-shirts (femme et homme), un mug (pour émuler vos collègues de bureau), et des badges (lot de 3, comme ça vous pourrez en mettre partout).
La boutique est ici: Help Japan
Je vous explique le fonctionnement de cette boutique… nous y indiquons que tous les bénéfices seront reversés à la Croix Rouge Française, qui va ensuite les transmettre à la Croix Rouge Japonaise.
Comboutique impose un “prix de base” pour chaque produit - qui est de 15 euros par exemple pour le t-shirt homme. Nous ne touchons rien sur ces 15 euros - on va dire que c’est le “prix d’achat” du t-shirt vierge. Nous avons monté le prix à 20 euros donc - ce qui fait 5 euros de bénéfice, et donc 5 euros de don pour la Croix Rouge.
Je vous assure que l’intégralité des bénéfices sera reversé à la Croix Rouge Française. Nous vous tiendrons bien sûr au courant du nombre d’items vendus, et du montant des “bénéfices” engrangés, et donc du don que nous ferons ensuite à la Croix Rouge.
Cette opération est limitée dans le temps, comme le stipule la réglementation juridique des partenariats avec la Croix Rouge Française, elle prendra fin le 29 Avril.
N’hésitez pas à passer le mot, à en informer vos proches, vos amis, vos collègues: chaque euro compte!

Hello People, just a few words for you:
We decided to show our support to the Japanese People. Frankie designed the poster above, and we wanted to sell it and give the reliefs to the French Red Cross, which will send all the money to the Japanese Red Cross.
In the end, we decided not to sell a poster, but T-shirts and a Mug, you can find the shop HERE. All the reliefs will be given to the Red Cross, and we will inform our readers about the total amount of items sold, and the total amount of money collected.
Spread the Word, help Japan!
NB: If Something is unclear, or if you want more infos - just comment below, we will answer your questions.
PS: Si quelque chose n’est pas clair pour vous, si vous voulez des informations, ou juste nous laissez un petit mot, n’hésitez pas à laisser un petit commentaire!
Singapore is really active on the tee scene, and on february the 1rst, Less Than Positive is born there. Tired of being a slave to grind, Eugene create Less Than Positive like a answer to the system. Eugene describe Less Than Positive as “Cynicism and subversion” and designs are appropriate. I love this spirit, I love the design, hope you too !
and the shop is open.
