FRENDZ.CLUB – Endless Feelings\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

FRENDZ.CLUB<\/span><\/a>\u2019s FRENDZ for CHARITY (F(4C)) series saw the creative agency invite collaborators spanning art, culture and music to design T-shirts for a cause across the month of April. In August, the team reprised F(4C) to launch their <\/span>Endless Feelings tee<\/span><\/a> in solidarity with Beirut, with all profits going to the <\/span>Life Lebanon Emergency Relief Fund<\/span><\/a>. This time around, 50% of profits will go to Life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Radio Alhara – filmishmish<\/span><\/h3>\n

Launched by five friends living between Ramallah, Bethlehem and Amman, though it\u2019s only been running for six months, <\/span>Radio Alhara<\/span><\/a> has quickly carved out a cult niche for itself in the music world. Their <\/span>filmishmish tee<\/span><\/a> (from the Arabic term, Fil Mishmish \u0641\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0634\u0645\u0634, meaning “in the time of the apricots” or “when the apricots bloom”) ran in tandem with their online three day festival against injustice in Palestine and the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ana Popescu – Hizen-Kashima\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Originally from Romania but now based in Austria, visual artist <\/span>Ana Popescu<\/span><\/a> uses pencils, felt tips, markers and acrylic paint to create her distinctive, bright works. Her <\/span>Hizen-Kashima<\/span><\/a> T-shirt started life as a piece she made for her visual diary while on a month-long residency in Studio Kura, Itoshima, Japan. Its clean colours, and abstract, dreamy quality is characteristic of all her work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Taraki x Aaran Sian – Release\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Taraki<\/span><\/a> works alongside Punjabi communities to help reshape approaches to, and understandings of, mental health, and their <\/span>Release<\/span><\/a> T-shirt sought to start conversations around male mental health in particular. In the words of designer <\/span>Aaran Sian<\/span><\/a>, \u201cThe man crying not only conveys deep emotion and sadness, but shows that he is \u2018letting it all out\u2019 and that Taraki can provide a safe space for individuals to share their emotions. The design aims to challenge the stigma surrounding male mental health in the South Asian community.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sarah Kerschhaggl – Leave No One Behind\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Sarah Kerschhaggl\u2019s <\/span>Leave No One Behind<\/span><\/a> T-shirt sought to help women and families living in Moria, a refugee camp on the Greek Island of Lesvos, with the profits going to <\/span>Becky\u2019s Bathhouse<\/span><\/a>. Aiming to provide a safe space for women and children, Becky\u2019s Bathhouse is a wellness centre providing hot showers and a safe, welcoming space for women and children living in the camp.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Marnie Cox – Groove\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

When she set out to make a tee, illustrator <\/span>Marnie Cox<\/span><\/a> wasn\u2019t sure her images would work on a T-shirt. \u201cI\u2019d wanted to make a T-shirt for a while, but thought I’d trial one with an old illustration just in case it was a flop,\u201d she said. \u201cI went through some work I made in my final year of uni and ended up choosing Groove.\u201d She made some minor tweaks \u2013 \u201cI kept the original colours (blue and white) but inverted it so it could work on a white tee.\u201d \u2013 and <\/span>the resulting tee<\/span><\/a> proved to be a hit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kim Van Vuuren – Aperol Club\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

One of our <\/span>Barcelona Takeover artists<\/span><\/a> back in 2019, <\/span>Kim Van Vuuren<\/span><\/a> is a bit of an Everpress favourite, and if we had to pick one, <\/span>Aperol Club<\/span><\/a> might be our top choice of all her designs. When we caught up with her to discuss the effects of the Covid-19 crisis on artists, she reflected on how much of a lifeline her campaigns were too. \u201cAs a society we\u2019ve been asked to sit still, and for me it\u2019s felt like an opportunity to hit the reset button and really formulate a plan to sell all my work online,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019ve also been working on more T-shirt designs. This week I\u2019m relaunching two campaigns and introducing a new design, so that I can continue to support myself during these trying times.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

IdealisteWorld – My Mind Is Up On The Mountains\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Scrolling through the <\/span>IdealisteWorld<\/span><\/a> Insta account is like leafing through a catalogue of carefully curated esoteric imagery with a slightly psychedelic bent. Whether it\u2019s archive footage, off-kilter images of iconic figures, or slightly wacky furniture, the beauty of this account is in its unpredictability. This sensibility was brought to life perfectly in their <\/span>My Mind Is Up On The Mountains<\/span><\/a> tee, which referenced the \u201860s and \u201870s in its graphics.<\/span><\/p>\n

DimSumRecords – Mind Body Riddim\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

DimSumRecords<\/span><\/a> tend to eschew reissues of their merch, keeping their focus instead on pushing through new ideas and iterations of work. Lucky for us, though, they made an exception for Re-Press. With its \u2018Practice gratitude\/Dig for new music\/Get creative\/Eat fresh dumplings\u2019 slogan, their <\/span>Mind Body Riddim<\/span><\/a> tee carries the feel-good message that DimSum are all about.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

R&S X M.WILLS<\/span><\/h3>\n

This <\/span>R&S Records<\/span><\/a> longsleeve saw the record label team up with independent designer and visual artist <\/span>M.Willis<\/span><\/a>. Originally from the U.K., but now based in Melbourne Willis has worked for a roster that includes clients as big as Adidas, Nike, Warner Music and Island Records. As well as this, he works on smaller, cult projects including artwork for Amsterdam based label MAT and the L.A label Babylon, and he brought this approach to the glitchy design of <\/span>this long-sleeve<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dohee Kwon – It\u2019s Building Up Now\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Dohee Kwon, or <\/span>@kimchisuperpowe<\/span><\/a>r as she\u2019s otherwise known, is quickly becoming an Everpress stalwart. The illustrator, who is based in Seoul and Chiang Dao, has a multifaceted output. As well as collaborating with other creatives on tees, she ran an ongoing series of Life T-shirts (which encapsulated her favourite moments) and designed <\/span>It\u2019s Building Up Now<\/span><\/a>, dedicated to those moments of euphoria.<\/span><\/p>\n

Joe Baker – Group Hug\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

To raise awareness of the devastation wrought by the Australian wildfires, and raise funds for <\/span>WIRES Wildlife Rescue<\/span><\/a> charity too, the visual artist and illustrator <\/span>Joe Baker<\/span><\/a> created his <\/span>Group Hug tee<\/span><\/a>. With a medley of animals in Joe\u2019s signature full-throttle style, for Re-Press it\u2019s been rejigged as a long-sleeve, for the colder Autumn months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Samaritans – Real People<\/span><\/h3>\n

Samaritans<\/span><\/a>\u2019 Real People, Real Stories campaign is about raising awareness of male mental health through the stories of men who\u2019ve sought help themselves. That\u2019s partly why T-shirts were such a good medium for their campaign; slogan tees are all about getting a message out there. The message for <\/span>this one<\/span><\/a> came from Ollie. <\/span>“If you\u2019re going through a tough time, the best thing you can do is talk and share it,\u201d he said. \u201cSometimes it\u2019s OK not to be OK, but things can always get better and there are so many more options.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Michael Challita x Iman Raad – The Revolution Is Born\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Taking its slogan from a poem by Nizar Qabbani, this long-sleeve raised money for disaster relief in Beirut, with all profits to be donated to <\/span>Beit El Baraka<\/span><\/a>. The bilingual design was the work of <\/span>Michael Challita<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Iman Raad<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>a Lebanese-Australian designer and patternmaker and an Iranian artist and graphic designer respectively, who are both now based in New York.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Roadbeer Society x Valentin Galmand<\/span><\/h3>\n

To immortalise their ethos on a tee, <\/span>The Roadbeer Society<\/span><\/a> paired with Bordeaux-based illustrator and interface designer <\/span>Valentin Galmand<\/span><\/a>. Known for his inviting, larger-than-life images, Galmand perfectly captured the hazy, carefree roadbeer attitude. In their words, \u201cIt’s enjoying time with your friends, outside and with a beer in hand.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
