“You so Haole, you dont even know you haole.” I get emails from people who run t-shirt companies on a daily basis. It seems like every man and his dog wants to be the owner of a hip designer t-shirt company, and most of the time they’re just carbon copies of each other. It’s the same played-out vector graphics style designs time and time again, and I’m bored of it!

So it was a breath of fresh air to get an email from TheRyde.com. It’s almost like they’ve been going through my garbage to find out my likes and dislikes in order to design my ultimate t-shirt. They’ve got the hand-drawn type I’m a fan of, and a simple black and white colour scheme, but ultimately they’ve based it around my guiltiest pleasure, and that’s the greatest movie ever known to mankind, the 80’s surf film North Shore. Unless you were a surfer growing up in the 80’s you probably wont appreciate the North Shore T-Shirt, but for those who did, it’s probably the best t-shirt ever created (and as an added bonus for those people, check out the North Shore Soundboard!)

Even if you don’t appreciate the North Shore T-Shirt, there are many other great laid-back designs to choose from at TheRyde.com, so go and check it out.
