ALL ABOUT T-POST

A Wearable Magazine
News + graphic t-shirt = T-post, the world’s first wearable magazine. All subscribers receive a new t-shirt, or "issue" as we like to call it, every month. News story printed on the inside. Graphic interpretation printed on the front. All around conversation piece.

A Subscription Service
T-post is a graphic t-shirt and a magazine, all in one. And just like your favorite paper magazine, our subscribers don't know what the story is or who has designed it until they have it in their hands. It’s like getting a surprise birthday present in the mail every month. All you have to do is sign up and the shirts will start arriving. As simple as that.

The Democratic Editorial Process
Every day, our engaged subscribers, fans and readers are submitting news stories which they find interesting to our web site; where they will be voted on, commented on and discussed by our fans.

Every month the T-post team chooses one topic from the most voted news topics and turn it into news you can wear.

The Story
The final result ends up living somewhere in-between a news story and a column. The stories we tend to go for are those that feel current, but also says something about the world we live in.

Most importantly, we like stories that will make people think and open up for new ideas and opinions. A great story would be something rather banal but if you look close enough it hides a greater philosophical question. And no, we’re not really political, we like to point in all directions and have our subscribers think for themselves.

The Designers
To keep T-post interesting, we work with a new designer each issue. We're always searching for new talent and interesting looks to keep the designs just as current as the stories on the inside. It’s difficult to say exactly what we’re looking for in an artist but to sum it up we like those who has a very strong personal expression and who will make a design that is unique and doesn't copy any other style. We like to go straight to the source so to speak.

By featuring a small bio on the artist we hope to not only give our subscribers a little background on the artist but also possibly point people in a direction to find out more about them. After all the designers we choose are those we respect and admire and we want more people to know about them. We have had the pleasure of working with some of the hottest artist and designers around and  we hope to continue to evolve with even more interesting styles and collaborations.

T-post And The Environment
We are always working on ways we can minimize our effects on the environment. For starters, we only produce the amount of t-shirts that are ordered. In other words, however many subscribers there are each month is how many shirts we produce. No more. No less.

Additionally, we now use a printer that is environmentally certified and uses eco-friendly ink. And we are currently researching local print shops to minimize the carbon debt associated with shipping. Of course, this is just the start. If you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear them.

Our Models
Our subscribers make us who we are. And we love to show them off. It doesn’t matter what your age, shape, color or planet of origin is, if you’re a subscriber who’d like to model an upcoming issue, and can get to our Stockholm studio, please email a sample photo to: ohyesiamamodel (at) tpostmag.com
