Tank Theory @ Karmaloop.com

Karmaloop.com introduced some great new t-shirts from Tank Theory. Decades ago a t-shirt offering 5 cent mustache rides was considered a high point of the industry. Back then tees got very little respect as a form of communication. This has changed over the wears with the number of graphic and urban artists who are using t-shirts as wearable canvases. This can certainly be seen in the newest line of designs from Tank Theory available at Karmaloop. Like any great work of art the shirts in Tank Theory’s line are complicated and deep. Many of their graphics can change in shape and meaning depending on the angle from which they are viewed. The Spilt Personality t-shirt appears to be a runny smear of rainbow paints. The shirt actually contains an image of two faces ripping violently apart. The Jack Player Series T-Shirt equips the traditional playing card image with a semi-automatic weapon. The Sex Camo shirt is every bit as fantastic as it sounds, merging vintage nudie pics into a scattered camouflage. You can view the rest of the line in the New Arrivals section of Karmaloop.com.
