Although a staple year-round, T-shirts hold a special place in the summer collections for three reasons: versatility, ease of wear, and the fact they’re the perfect canvas for labels to present their most daring graphics and seasonal colour palettes.
We’ve selected styles from 5 brands at the forefront of T-shirt design, each with its own distinctive edge.
Stüssy
The initial drop of Stüssy’s summer offering doesn’t disappoint when it comes to T-shirts. Standout pieces include a reference to the label’s affinity for games of chance, as well as one of the hottest shades of the season – for when you’re feeling bold.
Lo-Fi
Hailing from sunny Perth, it’s no wonder Lo-Fi’s designs come from a place of positivity. Inspired by nature, exploration, and mental wellbeing, the label’s latest drop experiments with earthy base tones and pastel overlays.
Brain Dead
When it comes to creativity, Brain Dead entrusts its artists with free roam, which is how the label consistently churns out eclectic graphic offerings. A nod to the ‘70s, our favourite pieces feature raglan sleeves and ringer trims.
Dime
Dime keeps it classic for summer, staying true to its refined, slightly preppy formula. Nautical influences make way for playful graphics, and, of course, there’s a few well-known logo reworks for good measure.
One of These Days
Matt McCormick draws from both his lived experiences and tales of the Midwest as inspiration for One of These Days. The label’s latest collection presents a powerful offering of graphic prints – riffing off cowboy culture, teenage angst, and ‘70s stereotypes.
From the Journal
Converse First String
The Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star returns with a premium update in the First String line. Retaining the silhouette’s timeless simplicity, these reconstructed Chucks introduce a higher foxing tape, a shorter toe cap, and a wider footbed for improved fit. Available in three new designs in Men's and Women's, First String is limited to just a handful of select stockists across Europe, including Couverture & The Garbstore.
TDR AW25
TDR returns for AW25 with a collection that champions genre-less British design, revisiting signature styles and introducing new silhouettes shaped by fabrics sourced across Japan, Scotland, and Canada. The focus is on winter comfort and craft, pairing functional construction with refined detailing for pieces designed to be worn every day.
