cuerno de chivo is now available at the ricecooker. I won't go into what the ricecooker is. Just visit it online here or better yet, head over to the shop where the tees (and lots of other indie D-I-Y stuff) are.

AK-47 T-Shirt: Cuerno de Chivo Delivered
Update: There will be no further posts on blogger. Please go to 23psi.com.After a long, long wait, the cuerno de chivo (ak-47) tees were finally delivered today. The online store isn't ready yet and won't be until I've the rest of the designs printed. So sales in earnest will not begin until then (at least for international orders). But drop me a line at 23psi.com@gmail.com if you're interested in owning one at this point in time, wherever you may be.

Hang Tag Pix
Update: There will be no further posts on blogger. Please go to 23psi.com.
Sometimes everything looks great on screen and then you get let down when it goes to production. Well, this isn't one of those situations. I'm really pleased with the tags. In fact, I feel kind of sad that these will probably be binned soon after the tee is taken out of the paper bag. But what the heck. Every tee needs a hang tag, and if I have anything to do with it, I'd do it in a way that I'd be happy with as if I'm the buyer. As for the tees, cuerno de chivo will probably be delivered tomorrow.

Production Sample In
Update: There will be no further posts on blogger. Please go to 23psi.com.
In view of the doubts that exist in the minds of some of the readers of this blog (you know who you are ;-)), I want to say that 23PSI is for real and not something that I'm setting up only to abandon somewhere down the road. Fact is, I've been having some problems with my printer and this has been the main cause of the delay.
Anyways, I got the production sample of cuerno de chivo this past Saturday and it's pretty much up to scratch in terms of the fabric. It's more substantial than the standard AA tee and soft to boot because it's fully combed and pre-washed. What's being addressed now is the positioning of the design (which has undergone a minor change) and when that's sorted, will go to print. I expect to take delivery end of this week. So pix of the tees will have to wait until then.

It's Been A Struggle
Update: There will be no further posts on blogger. Please go to 23psi.com.
Just want to let everyone who reads this blog know that I'm still at it, pushing this along as much as I can. We think we're in control most of the time, but the truth is we aren't, and so much of what we do depends on timing and the other people we have to work with.
But it's been a particularly difficult time since my mum was diagnosed with cancer about a week ago, so it has been especially tough keeping things moving along. I'm now occupied most of the day with looking after my 2 boys (my wife's the one with the real job, thanks dear!) and it's near impossible to get productive creatively at 11pm (after visiting mum and when everyone's asleep) but it looks like I've no choice for now.

This is the (first) design which I sent to the printer. Everything else has been put on hold until I see the finished product for this. Just can't bring myself to commit on the other designs until I have the tee in my hands and on my back. If cut, stitch and print quality are up to scratch, then everything else gets the green light. So until then, I'll be keeping my head down with this and my hopes up for mum.
