Even though I am 40, I still enjoy a funny logo t-shirt or sweatshirt. A few have recently tickled my fancy, so I thought I would post them here. I only have one of them (marked as a * and it was gifted to me), but would love to see the others in my wardrobe soon.
Be happy*– While this isn’t a technical piece, it encompasses several things about me- being outdoors and happiness. You will know which strangers you should be friends with based on whether they smile after seeing this shirt. Plus, the brand plants 10 trees with every purchase (hence the brand name TenTree). Their outdoor/travel range of responsibly made clothing ticks the sustainable and super comfortable boxes. I received two weeks ago and wore it for three days straight as it was so soft. There was a small wooden ornament on the tag that lets me track the trees that are planted. Pretty cool!
All I want for Christmas– Ain’t this the truth! Whether you go CrossFit, parkrun or ultras, who doesn’t want to improve their performance. Comes in men’s and women’s, red or blue. You can’t loose with this one. Set aside some time to nosy around the rest of their site for some other fantastic gift ideas.
Kinda wanna go for a run– Every year, Sarah Marie Design Studio creates so many clothing designs I want, it is lucky there isn’t a store in the UK. Shipping overseas includes extra taxes and such so I only treat myself once in a while (such as when my mom comes to visit). SMDS- if you ever want to open a store in London, I am your girl to help you launch it!
I just want snacks– Story of my life here on a sweatshirt. On a recent trip to Shoreditch, I discovered Limpet Store in the Women Who Give a Sh*t (WHGAS) pop up in the Boxpark. I couldn’t stop smiling as walked down each aisle at the uniquely curated selection. Limpet Store had many things I loved, but this was my favorite. Comes in white, black or grey. I insist you visit the Limpet Store online and if you can, the WHGAS pop up in London asap. So much good stuff in both!
MOVE– I am not even sure you can get this sweatshirt anymore but I saw it when I recently popped into their Shoreditch studio. It makes me a little nostalgic because FRAME was one of the first studios I worked at in London back in 2012. Shoreditch was the only studio back then and looked fairly different when you first walked in. Fast forward to 2020, and the team are planning on opening studios in Bristol and Brighton after already having over a half dozen in London. This logo captures their energetic branding but would also hopefully inspire people who read it to be more active.
Self-love recipe- H&M surprised me with this pretty pastel pink number at an affordable price. I cropped it quite a bit so you can read what it says on the back. Remember this list over the holidays and take a time out if you need it.
Love the miles/Love the rest days- We Are Daybreak is a friendly running community in London who offer free workouts on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as weekend trail running adventures. They just started selling technical tees, cotton t-shirts and sweatshirts just in time for the holidays. Their usual motto is “love the miles” (as shown in photo), I want a sweatshirt for the finish line, which is why I prefer “love the rest days” (photo coming soon, but take the format above and change text). Their official shop is nearly ready to launch but in the meantime, join their group on Facebook to order your shirt today (search DB LOVE THE MILES, will be posted after Christmas).
What is your favorite sweatshirt in your closet? Is because of a happy memory, how it feels, or because you love what it says?
