Staple Design – Sign of The Times

Whether it has your town, your team, or your favorite Ninja Turtle, the t-shirt has always been used to convey some kind of message about where you’re from, where you’re at, or what you represent. Taking that concept to a much broader scope, Staple Design brings us the “Sign of the Times” tee, which attempts to capture the essence (or at least some of it) of our society at large. Signs are powerful things, instantly recognizable and evoking deep meanings, so assembling such a varied group and presenting them with equal prominence makes for a very controversial design. Apparently the printer refused to print this at first because of the swastika, which is actually an ancient Asian religious symbol that predates the Nazis by a thousand years, so that just goes to show you what kind of effect this can have. So, if you’re looking to get into heated debates or just turn some heads, check the Jeff Staple blog for more info.
