James from t-shirt connoisseur here, bringing you a top ten countdown list of tees with skulls.
You don’t have to be a goth kid or a metal fan to wear tee’s with skulls. Skulls can symbolize death, and their figure can leave you pondering mortality, but the iconic image of the skull is more than that — skulls are just cool.
Difficulty: No Pirate Flags, No Punisher Logo, & Human Skulls Only
10. ” Suit Up? ” @ Design by Humans – $25
Make a statement about joining the corporate rank and file — or just wear it becuase it’s pretty bad ass.
9. ” Grunge Skull ” @ VanRockn – $18
Being off-centre is what makes this tee. Love the tone on black.
8. Deaths Embrace @ AkumuInk – $22.00
I assume the title should instead read “Death’s Embrace”, but who am I to pick on the grammar of such an awesome designer? Subtle dark on black with a jarring design.
7. ” Death and Tooth Decay ” @ Threadless – $18
At this point in the top ten list, I figured I would brighten things up a bit, with this delicious t-shirt. Mmmmm, gummy worms.
6. ” Blue Velvet ” @ Teefury – $9
Available for today only — that’s the way teefury rolls.
5. ” Impaled ” @ AkumuInk – $18
The image of skulls impaled on a spear — the universal symbol of “Don’t F#&% With Me” since, well… since about the time spears were invented.
4. ” Skulls Heart ” @ VanRockn – $18
A heart on the left side of your chest, over your heart — made of skulls for some reason or another.
3. ” Ghostly Skull ” @ Threadless – $TBD
Back to the light hearted side of things, this delightful (and colorful!) skull made of ghosts. If you read my stuff @ t-shirt connoisseur, you know I have a thing for t-shirt designs featuring things made from other things.
2. ” 88 Ghosts ” @ Funk Rush – ~$10
Yes, I know the last tee was also a skull made from colorful ghosts, big whoop, wanna fight about it? Also, am I obsesive is I counted to be sure there was 88 ghosts? (fyi, there was)
1. ” Ashes To Ashes ” @ Tenbills – $10
Easily topping the list is this great tee from ten bills. Its design is both beautiful and engaging, and if they didn’t charge $19 to ship to Canada, I’d buy several.
That wraps up the top ten — I’m a top 10 purist, no bonus 11th tee (sorry, Andy)
kthxbi.
