Free T-shirt Friday - Get Paid!


We all make sacrifices.

We all do things out of the kindness of our hearts.

What should YOU be getting paid to do?

Time to brag a little, humble friends. (Or feel free to brag about an underpaid friend you think deserves a shirt.)

Leave a comment, we'll pick a winner on Monday. Winner gets any Vintage Vantage original shirt of their choosing.

Time to get paid off, not laid off.

ALO - Man of the World

If Vintage Vantage had a house band, it would be Animal Liberation Orchestra.

They are four supremely talented musicians, and together, their music encapsulates the same spirit of good-hearted enthusiasm we aim for in our t-shirts.

ALO went to Hawaii last winter to record an album in Jack Johnson's Mango Tree studio. Relix Magazine perhaps said it best: "(Jack) joins in on both sides of the console without letting ALO forget its own identity as Northern California's answer to the Beach Boys".

Check out the record here, or download it from iTunes.

Bitchin! Aloha! I love music! Bassist Steve Adams wants to siesta contigo!

VV in the News - Let's Make Magic Love Muffins!



Cottonable T-shirt Blog featured the lovable lovely loving love-themed shirts of Vintage Vantage last week.

Behold what Ollie beheld:


Valentine's Day T-shirts: Girls, Let's Make Magic Love Muffins!

February is a month of love. That's right, it's all because of the Valentine's day in February 14. And when we talk about love, girls are always the ones who know the best way to express their feeling. That's why Vintage Vantage came out with cute, lovely and casual tees about love.

Girls, baking and muffins are inseparable. This cute tee shirt ($19.50) says "Let's Make Magic Love Muffins" which, of course, every girl could relate to this statement. Especially, when love and muffins collide.

And whose more you can love other than your boyfriend? It got to be your friends, right? This tee ($19.50) shows a collection of peeps, shouting love from the rooftops! Printed on lovely Vintage Vantage new faded black v-necks tee.

One thing I can't seem to forget — when the Valentine's Day is coming, you could find unwritten rules of let's-wear-pinks-ladies! everywhere. When you're up to the idea, then you could always wear this very cute pink tree with a blue love bird singing love songs tee ($19.50).

Anyway, if you want to torture your boyfriend with something pink, you could get him the men version of the muffin tee. Or, of course you can always ask your boyfriend to get some of these tees for you as a sweet Valentine's day gift!

Hmm… now you can really feel that love is in the air, can you?


Thank you Ollie! We LOVE you and hope your Valentine reads this.
And they see how all our LOVE themed shirts are on sale for $12 this week.
