There is something about Threadless just incredibly cool. Everything from the way they silk-screen their tees, to the brilliance of their designer community, the outrageousness of the employees and slickness of their site; I'm willing to say, that they're one of our biggest inspirations for creating co-created custom men's dress shirts. We already highlighted them as one of the leaders in what Wired Magazine branded as The Next Revolution in From Stitching Shirts to Assembling Cards, the Next Revolution. But kudos where kudos is deserved, they recently partnered up with Griffin Technology, a leader in iPod, iPhone and iPad accessories, to offer a new platform for designers to collaborate on, and that's the iPhone cover. You can check out a couple of examples below, but as you can probably imagine, with such a massive fan base, these are selling out quick. But beware, similar to wearing identical tie and cuff link sets, matching tee and iPhone is still probably a little uncool ... so don't ruin it for everyone else!
This is a really interesting 4-min vid on the collaboration between Threadless and Griffin, what their respective teams think about it, and just more coolness ...
Threadless + Griffin = one awesome case! from Threadless.com on Vimeo.
