This May we see the long awaited arrival of 4 new t-shirts. And this time it’s an all star lineup from far and wide. We have t-shirts by artists from Ireland, New York and Canada. In no particular order we are so chuffed to finally have a t-shirt from Marc Johns. If you don’t know his stuff you really should check out his incredible drawings.
