In what is probably the best of the Threadless weekly deals thus far, all shirts are $10 until next Monday! If you’ve put off your holiday shopping until now, there is probably no better time than now to get in your order before the shipping deadlines. Unless, of course, Threadless decides to release another surprise $9 sale, but even then this is pretty damn close.
Sadly, this Monday brings only two new designs. The first, “Pop Life Deserves a Toast!“, isn’t particularly noteworthy, but the second is definitely worth some blog time.
“Springfield Still Life” is a design I remember voting for, so I’m thrilled to see it get printed! This clever tee is a hilarious take on America’s most famous (and most yellow) cartoon family. Each character is transformed into an everyday living room item with characteristics that manage to make the reference instantly recognizable. The subtle-but-obvious joke is what makes the design so successful as a pop culture reference, especially in the case of the items representing the characters who aren’t Marge. (I’m sure most people could make the connection from her hair to a large shrub!) I love how the jagged edge of the paper bag represents Bart’s hair; the iconic red of the lampshade and its beaded pull make an easy jump to Lisa’s skirt and necklace.
This masterpiece is easily one of the best humorous designs out of Threadless in a while — it’s definitely going in my cart, and for $10 I’d say it’s a steal.

Thanks for that great comment of my tee! I'm Alvarejo, the one who designed it.
Take care!
