You Like, You Buy Vol 34

There are many people out there who are interested in Asian culture and I don't just mean those who think that the Japanese make the most imaginative p0rn. They often want to reflect this in their personal style, but to a lesser extreme than Alyssa Milano.



However, when it comes to Chinese-inspired shirts, trying to find a decent one can be as difficult as trying to track down that special bootleg version of Something's Gotta Give, you know the one which cuts out all the irrelevant bits and just leaves in the scenes featuring Keanu Reeves as a hot doctor.

GMTEE shirts is a Hong Kong-based online company that aims to fill this niche. They also have a bunch of Japanese-inspired shirts and the worldwide shipping rates are quite reasonable. There has been positive customer feedback and best of all they don't make any hokey references to takeout containers and fortune cookies.

While the popular items are based on the more elaborate black & white designs, these appealed to my almond-shaped eyes:

Kung Fu master


Phish


Jumping koi


Rising crane


Zilla


I hope that a Panda Idol t shirt will be added to the lineup soon. Once I have one of those, my life will be complete.

Note: From time to time this blog receives requests to feature stuff. While I don't propose to prance around in scanty apparel while shilling footrubs, snakeoil and miracle potions I may write about certain products if I'm in a good mood. This is not something you can control but will usually entail not having to work on the weekend, having an ample supply of junk food to eat and DVDs to watch. There are very few things I will sell out for and they include Chanel, Marc Jacobs, Collette Dinnigan, a really stylish military jacket for winter, and the aforementioned DVD of Something's Gotta Give.
