Wardrobe Must-Have Itens

October 08, 2008

This is an experimental post. We don't want to become a fashion blog, but it is as total fact that fashion is all about design. So come on people, give it a try! I know you'll like it.

From time to time I search for cool clothing on the internet and manage to find some AWESOME stuff. Great designs, great prices (or not). Here's a little list I've made of itens I thought that a designer should have in his wardrobe (of course, if he/she likes any of these). And from my search, all I can say is that the 80's are totally back. I hope you enjoy these, and people, try looking these not only as personal inspiration, but maybe many of you could also design clothes and shoes! And don't forget to drop a comment... depending how you guys like it, there might be a monthly post about it. Cheers! ;)

Hello, everyone! I'm Paulo Gabriel, a 25 years old designer from Porto Alegre, Brazil. I work as a webdesigner since 2006, but websites and blogs have been a hobbie for me since 1999.

not 80s inspired, but one piece of clothing every typography nerd should own is the KERN sweatshirt from Veer: http://www.veer.com/products/merchdetail.aspx?image=VPR0001260#detail

protski10/08/2008

Hm, that post about the hand-made custom shoes would fit very well here, nice collection and I think that more posts like this should happen!

$132.07 for a flannel shirt?

Here is the inspiration I take from that...

Go get a flannel from K-mart or Wal-Mart (whatever) for $20. Take the remaining $112.07 and buy a meal for a family that needs it.

"Just do it" (insert whatever mark to protect Nike's interests)

Rokurosv10/08/2008

I totally agree that original clothing has a lot to do with design, plus a wonderful source for inspiration, I would love to see more articles like this one.
The Converse Poorman Weapon are just awesome.

I found one piece that I would love to have

K3v10/08/2008

I'm a sucker for nike sb's!
By the way, where's the Abduzeedo shirt? ;)

Bryan10/08/2008

Seeing as I am an aspiring designer, I am interested by every thing that has to do with visual, and graphical design, including film, animation, products, houses, buildings, furniture and also fashion.

I can get very excited over a pair of highly limited leather jacket converse, or Back to the Future Nike's. I'd definitely like to see more posts like this, but even more I'd like to see real articles where you, for example, describe a certain clothing style and it's different pieces (shoes, pants, shirt etc).

Keep on keeping man, I love this blog!

Alex Wind10/08/2008

We should have an abduzeedo T shirt design contest! Winnder gets their design printed and sold to the community :-)

While some of this is fresh, I'm gonna have to agree with todd spargo over here.

Dainis Graveris10/08/2008

Huh, I didn't find anything really for me, but I strongly recommend to continue delivering these kind of series! It's all about the design - reallyy! Keep the stuff coming! :)

Tarazz10/09/2008

I prefer "de loin" the adidas 'Campus' than the gazelle, those are more for chicks or pussies...
I used to wear it(campus) for years (4 different pairs) since 1994 (wow! 14 yeras ago!!!)
for me it's the 'best comfort shoes' ever made as the clyde from puma

Anonymous10/09/2008

Man, this is all hipster twaddle.
2 points for the thought behind the post though.

Baden10/09/2008

Benjamin Thomson10/10/2008

I gave this blog the two week test, and it failed. I am never coming back. Some of your tutorials are good, but the articles and daily inspirations are about as inspiring as flushing my toilet.

There is more to the world than designers! Other people's design is the last place you should look to for inspiration. The only time I will ever come back here is if I want to visually describe to someone what all the hipster wannabe boring-ass designers were doing a year ago.

There's a couple shirts relevant to designers over at http://hanzorage.com ... they have CMYK and Helvetica designs that are pretty sweet.
