Harley Davidson Shirts
Aside from being the top vendor of heavyweight motorcycles in the United States, Harley Davidson also has a clothing line. The Harley Davidson clothing line sells a variety of items, including t-shirts, jackets, pants, boots and other accessories with the Harley Davidson logo.
These items were originally made for Harley Davidson bikers, to complement the company’s motorcycle. Nowadays, you don’t have to be a biker to be able to wear their clothing, most especially their t-shirts.
There are a number of Harley Davidson t-shirts sold in the market. These t-shirts are available in different prints and designs, such as the popular “Put your ass on some class” design. Every Harley Davidson dealership has a logo of its own. You can usually find the name of the Harley Davidson dealership on top of the Harley Davidson logo.
In the past, Harley Davidson t-shirts were targeted for the male population. However, in recent years, there has been a gradual increase in the number of females buying Harley Davidson motorcycles. This has led to the emergence of a clothing line for female Harley Davidson enthusiasts. Harley Davidson t-shirts are not limited to the color black anymore. The company’s skull logo has also become more female-friendly, with additional designs such as flowers or wings in some t-shirts. Another recent addition to Harley Davidson’s apparel is their clothing line for children.
These days, shopping for a Harley Davidson t-shirt is a breeze! Now, you can shop online using the company’s website. Online shopping allows you to buy the specific shirt you want from a number of dealers participating in Harley Davidson’s online shopping program.
The Harley Davidson t-shirt is quite popular among both riders and non-riders for good reason – their t-shirts are comfortable and durable, and the Harley Davidson brand gives it an additional edge. Check these shirts out!

Retro T Shirts
Image Credit: Gemma JonesCan’t think of anything to give to a friend who’s stuck in the 70’s? Want to give your parents something they will surely enjoy and that will make them reminisce? Give them a retro t-shirt!
Retro t-shirts, sometimes used interchangeably with the term vintage t-shirts, are t-shirts that were popular in the past decades. Designs of retro t-shirts typically include a famous slogan popularized during that decade. Examples of slogans are “It’s OK, I’m with the Band”, “Make Love, Not War”, “Groovy!” and “Do Your Own Thing”, to name a few. Retro t-shirt may also be designed with logos of famous 60’s, 70’s or 80’s bands.
However, in recent years, there has been a surge in the number of vendors selling reproductions of retro t-shirts. If you want to buy a real, honest-to-goodness retro t-shirt that fits, here are some tips you should consider:
- Check if there is a photograph of the item. Search for close-ups, and inspect it carefully, taking into account pixels, colors and sizing. Also, compare the pictures with pictures of the authentic retro t-shirt.
- Consider the t-shirt material. Retro t-shirts were typically made of a blend of polyester and cotton.
- Real retro t-shirts may have been worn and washed to various degrees. When checking the size, don’t forget to factor in some shrinkage or stretching of the fabric.
- If possible, ask for the size and measurements of the t-shirt, specifically the length and the chest measurements, to make sure that it fits.
- Look for the tag or ask for the brand. Popular t-shirt brands of the past include Sportswear, Screen Stars, Ched and Touch of Gold, to name a few.
- Make sure that the vendor has a reasonable return policy.
If you follow these tips, you’ll surely find an authentic retro t-shirt in no time!

Gothic Clothing
Gothic fashion represents an alternative, occasionally eccentric, fashion style. Gothic clothing is characterized by dark pieces worn from head to toe. Some consider the style to be morbid or vampire-like. Some pieces are inspired by designs in the Victorian and Elizabethan era.
Gothic clothing is typically composed of black clothes, usually combined with bold accents in red, deep purple or silver. Designs of gothic clothing include crosses, Wiccan symbols and Egyptian ankhs, to name a few. On certain occasions, instead of the typical all-black ensemble, Goths also tend to wear all-white clothing.
Typical clothing for female Goths includes elaborate dark-colored corsets and detailed gowns. Fitted jeans and boots are also favorite pieces worn by female Goths. To add more drama to the outfit, girls also wear fishnet stockings, veils and black boots.
On the other hand, typical clothing for male Goths includes rugged or tight pants combined with a dark suit. They also tend to wear black trenchcoats. Occasionally, male Goths also wear female clothing, such as skirts, corsets and even dresses.
Goths typically wear black make-up to further enhance the dark look. Both males and females wear dark make-up. Black eyeliner, black lipstick and black nail polish are usually worn. Goths also usually wear white powders on the face to appear pale, a stark contrast to the dark make-up. The hair of Goths are also usually dyed black, although some Goths choose brighter colors, such as deep shades of red or violet. Tattoos and body piercings are also common in the Goth subculture.
There has been a gradual but steady increase in the number of clothing stores selling gothic apparel. This continuing growth has led to the development of various gothic fashion shows, where gothic clothing is showcased. Examples of these include Seattle’s Gothique Fashion and Melbourne’s Nocturnal Instincts.

T-Shirt Screen Printing
Screen printing is a popular method for transferring customized designs on fabric. Here are the basic steps involved in the t-shirt screen printing process.
STEP 1: CHOOSING THE SCREEN
There are several kinds of screens available for screen printing. Screens with an aluminum frame are more expensive than those with wooden frames, but typically last longer. Screens also differ on their mesh count. Screens with higher mesh counts allow for finer printing, and are typically used when printing on paper. When printing on fabric, a mesh count of about 110 or 160 is generally used.
STEP 2: BURNING THE DESIGN ONTO THE SCREEN
Next, you have to burn your design onto the screen. This is called a stencil. Every color used in the design requires a different stencil. Once you have the design you want, separate the image based on the different colors used. You can use a number of computer software programs to do this task for you. Next, change the images into black-and-white and print it onto a transparent film.
Once you have the black-and-white image, coat the screen evenly in emulsion and allow the emulsion to dry. Then, place the transparency on top of the emulsion-coated screen. Next, go to a darkroom and expose the screen to light for several minutes. This will allow the emulsion to on the white areas, making sure that no ink passes through. Once the emulsion has hardened, spray the screen with water to remove the soft areas.
STEP 3: TRANSFERRING THE DESIGN ONTO THE SHIRT
Finally, pour ink onto the screen, making sure you are applying even pressure all throughout. Let the ink dry first before printing the next layer, to make sure that the colors do not bleed. Once you’ve printed all the layers, let the ink dry. Now, you’re done!

T-Shirt Bags
Is there a t-shirt in your closet that you’ve outgrown but still want to use? Do you have a t-shirt that you never wear but can’t seem to throw away? Try making it into a t-shirt bag!
A t-shirt bag is a reusable, fashionable craft that you can easily create at home. Since it is made out of fabric, it can be easily folded to fit snugly in your closet. Here are the basic steps in making your t-shirts into functional bags:
First, flip the t-shirt inside out, making sure that the seams are aligned. Cut the sleeves at the point where they meet the rest of the t-shirt. Then, sew the bottom of the t-shirt in order to close it.
Next, decide on whether you want the opening of the bag to be round or square. For round openings, get a bowl and trace a half-circle around the neck of the t-shirt; for square openings, use a ruler. Using your tracing as a guide, cut through both the front and the back of the t-shirt. You now have the basic outline of your t-shirt bag.
Fold approximately 1 cm along the areas where the t-shirt was cut and pin it. Sew the hems, making sure that no loose edges are showing.
Finally, flip the t-shirt right side out and accessorize it! Add designs using fabric paint or sew in ribbons or beads. Also try adding buttons or zippers. You can also make a pocket using fabric from the sleeves that were cut off earlier.
When using the t-shirt bag, remember that the bag is made from fabric; thus, it is best not to place heavy and bulky contents in it so that it doesn’t loose its shape or get torn.
You now have your own functional t-shirt bag! Flaunt it!

Cheap, chic and socially responsible

Lately, people have been wearing different colored silicone bracelets. Does this have any meaning?
The trend started with Lance Armstrongs LiveStrong bracelets. It was a fundraising idea were they sold yellow bracelets to raise money. By purchasing one, you supported the fight against cancer. Since then, other custom silicone rubber bracelets have come out supporting different causes, each represented by a different color. Rubber wristands are not just a fad or a fashion statement. They are relatively low in price but they make a big difference.

Functional Fashion is in Style this Season
(NewsUSA) - Selecting the perfect outfit can be a daily challenge, especially during the fall months when the weather becomes as unpredictable as the fall foliage. If you've vetoed everything in your closet and need advice, remember these simple tips for the chilly days of autumn through the cold winter months.
Layers eliminate the guesswork: With the ever-changing fall weather patterns underway, the best way to ensure you stay fashionably warm is with the use of layers. Look for clothing that allows for quick adjustments and can be worn alone, paired with a lightweight layer or under a winter coat. Moisture-wicking pieces, such as the Rapid Descent Zip Hoodie by Columbia Sportswear, work best as base layers by keeping you dry.
Stick with neutral colors and patterns: Earth tones, such as rich berry, moss, cobalt and chocolate, are all the craze this season, but your entire closet doesn't have to be revamped.
Make the most of your fall clothing by adding fashionable pieces in colors that complement your existing wardrobe. Pair a berry top with your favorite black winter coat, or freshen things up with bold patterns and prints.
Look for classic patterns, such as herringbone, houndstooth, glen plaids and twill. These timeless prints will help you transition from season to season in style.
Stay versatile: Gone are the days of wearing a different jacket for every type of weather. Multifunction apparel is in this season. Look for versatile pieces, such as jackets that are both waterproof and breathable so they not only look great, but also function in all weather conditions. When shopping for multipurpose outerwear, stylish softshells are a perfect choice for the whole family during the changing seasons because they are highly breathable and comfortable, yet as protective as a hard shell. The Wildcard Softshell for men and the Crystal Crest Softshell for women by Columbia Sportswear are great picks. Sleek silhouettes, vibrant colors and updated fabric treatments make these jackets fashionable enough for a night out on the town, yet functional enough for a day on the slopes.
For more information about functional, active apparel and this season's trends, visit Columbia Sportswear online at www.Columbia.com.
