REVOLT! by Some Product
At Some Product we have always looked at t-shirt graphics as a reflection of society and of the human psyche in general.
About a year ago we started working on a series of graphics and ideas called REVOLT. They are quite stark in nature and design, mostly black designs, printed on gray bodies. Each shirt is individually marked with a large, airbrushed, red X. It has an immediate, almost primal quality to it, reminding one of a door or a window marking, often seen during civll unrest. The wearer becomes the mark.
Whether it’s the IRA, Tiananmen Square or Zapatistas, uprisings and rebellions have always been an integral part of human history and development.
REVOLT tees are available for wholesale now. Please contact us for information.
Special Limited Edition one-off REVOLT tees are available thru the Some Product online store.

Some Product Custom Denim
Denim jackets are pretty much timeless. They are an integral item in any wardrobe worth keeping, and a really good one, will remain a cherished item for life. They are worn by every one and any one. Bikers & Rockers. Punks & Skins. Hippies & Mods. Skaters & Metalheads. The Young & The Old. Everyone….
Several years ago I started collecting vintage denim jackets and old patches and slowly started to work on Some Product Custom. The only rule was, that each one should be a completely unique item, and reflect or rather pay tribute to, a certain personal style or scene.
These jackets are available in very limited quantities for wholesale or directly from Some Product (visit our studio or online store).
Starting in March 2011, they will be available at Patricia Fields Boutique on the Bowery in NYC and in Vancouver at El Kartel.
All jackets are printed by Mycommunitee.com.
The first jacket pictured is my old junior high school daily uniform (nfs).
Brushing with Air
Cutting stencils and airbrushing was a huge part of the creative thrust and process for Some Product during 2004 and 2005. Most of the items from that period were airbrushed individually by hand in Vancouver. It was a very exciting and spontaneous period with many designs being one-of-a-kind, or in extremely limited runs. The majority of the collections were sold to customers in Japan. Locally they were sold at El Kartel.
In 2011, Some Product will be bringing back airbrush elements into the collection. (Posts to follow).
Time permitting, there is a possibility of an airbrush workshop at Blim in the up coming months. Check with Blim for any details.

The Xeroxed Goddess
Former teenage “bad girl” appears on this vintage t-shirt bought at a Saint Catherine’s sex shop in Montreal, sometime in the 90’s. Tracy Lord’s iconic image gets the full-on DIY, photocopied and cut-up treatment, in a glorious high contrast black and white print. No gloss here, just cheap, easy n’ sleazy.
Get Rich or Die Cruisin’ dude!!
So stoked I found this photo!!!
I remember owning this Die Kreuzen record back in junior high and being particularly drawn to this image. As a kid on a steady diet of metal and punk music and graphics, this cover had everything I liked. The band never played the cultural hotbed of Edmonton, so I decided to make the tee in Grade 7 art class (unfortunately, the actual tee did not survive..boohoo).
This was done with a paint brush, using regular fabric paints and I am quite sure, is the first tee I ever made. I remember making a few more one-off, DIY tees (Celtic Frost, Slayer and The Cramps) over the next few years, but …no photos have surfaced ….yet.
