Is it Tuesday again, already? Seriously, I feel like the weeks fly by. This week’s sartorial shout-out is one of my favorites – OK well they all are to some extent. So for lucky #13, I bring you from Threadless “We’ve Got Some Work to Do Now” by Travis Pitts.
Not only do I love the title, (although it reminds me that I have been quite remiss on giving folks my two cents about this summer’s movies) the art is so, so awesome!
I’ve been a fan of Scooby Doo, Where Are You? for as long as I remember. This was the original series that ran even before I was born, but was repeated often during the late seventies and very early eighties. I think this show for my early love of supernatural storytelling. In any case, being a nerdy child, I always liked Velma though I always wished she would dress a little better and do something with her hair. I mean she didn’t have to be prissy like Daphne, but surely she could do something a bit more than that helmet hairdo. Thus, when I saw this shirt it made me really happy. Not only was my girl Velma the brains of the operation, but she was also a zombie killing badass. One of my favorite touches is Daphne’s green scarf tied to Velma’s arm. That and the “R.I.P. S+F+D” on the side of the Misery Machine just take it to the next level.
Though it is currently out of stock at Threadless, they often do reprints, so if you want one of your own, keep checking back. It’s a totally badass shirt for Scooby Doo and zombie fans alike. Needless to say, I think this shirt will be the inspiration for my 2012 Halloween costume. Until next time, have some scooby snacks and keep wearing tees!
