Boski for blokes
We reckon our friend Nick at uber hip Oz label Boski has some of the coolest designs around for guys in T Shirts (yeah, OK, so you need a Foghorn AND a Boski T in your cupboard), shirts, jackets and the rest. Boski is Melbourne based, but becoming available in other States. You can check out Nick's work at http://www.boski.com.au/. Email him to find out where you can get your hands on his stuff, cos you'll look great now and in five year's time you'll be able to say you were wearing Boski when it was all just beginning.
Blogs we love
It's not a blog, it's a Forum, and it's a great place to find out all there is about the T Shirt industry. Founded by one of the world's great T Shirt experts, Rodney, www.t-shirtforums.com is a great place for all those interested in wearing, or even making T Shirts (not that you would be thinking of needing to do that anywhere but at Foghorn, of course!). Check it out.
Foghorn's all about being individual, but we will admit there are some damn fine pre-designed T Shirts out there. funkyduds.blogspot.com will let your mouse do the walking and get keep you on the mark with all the latest looks and new releases. Best of all, it's based right here in Oz. Yeehah.

FOG-MEDIA
We’ve chuffed when we get good press. Here's a selection of the media's thoughts on Foghorn.
In this world (Foghorn), the person displaying a slogan across their chest is the same person who designed the tee, which feels a lot better than pretending to believe in weird statements conceived in a Chinese sweatshop
The Scene (online National)
"Why do the shirts that fit the best always have crappy prints? And all the cool prints are on crappy T Shirts that don't fit? Well Foghorn, Australia's first on-line print on demand T Shirt company, intends to do something about it.... The best part is you'll never run into someone wearing the same shirt"
frankie (National)
"Online sites like Foghorn and labels like American Apparel [available at foghorn.com.au] are giving the power to everyday people - turning them into designers, and their thoughts into fashion statements. By striving to help people get their ideas literally from their mind on to their chest, this break-through in individual design is taking off in a bit way. All it takes is an idea, a thought. Once upon a time this is exactly how it would have remained. Now it's as easy as logging on to the Internet".
Fashion Journal (National)
"Hip Aussie fashion brand Foghorn allow you to put what's on your mind onto your chest."
newwoman.com.au (online national)
"Inspired souls, unite! No more shall you suffer other people's ideas of cool on your chest - Foghorn has answered your call. With different fits, colours and print styles and hundreds of symbols to choose from, you now have no excuse for sporting a boring T Shirt."
Men's Health Magazine (National)
“A new online T-shirt house is giving everyone the forum to become a designer… the designs are printed using European heat transfer technology on traditional shaped shirts from Canadian manufacturer Gildan or a more fitted cut from cult Los Angeles maker American Apparel”
Herald Sun (Melbourne)
“T Shirt enthusiasts can create their own designs at Foghorn..... foghorn.com.au has more than 28 typefaces and 1000 symbols. It’s a great solution as a last-minute Christmas present”
Sunday Age (Melbourne)
“Try your hand at designing your own top! You can choose from a wide range of colours and symbols online and have it delivered to your door in two days”
Famous Magazine (National) "
Foghorn is Australia's first major online print-on-demand T shirt house! Pick you own colour, design, style, size, and the guys at Foghorn will print your tee for you...cool!"
TV Hits (National)
As seen in Men's Style
"The power lands in the hands of the consumer. Rather than wearing a T shirt carrying a designer's slogan or rant, create your own at Foghorn's online workshop."
Men's Style (National)
When designing your tees using Foghorn the world is your oyster. You can choose from a variety of printing techniques, including glitter, fluffy and metallic effects. You can also add as many images or pieces of text as you please. The more you add to your custom tshirt, the greater the cost will be - but remember, it’s a one-off print so it will all be worth it!! ...So don’t let yourself get lost in the thick mists of society, go and grab yourself a Foghorn now.
t-shirt-alert.com (online worldwide)
"Nothing says more about a person than their T -shirt, but the T Shirt they're wearing is always designed by someone else. Using the internet as a force for good, Melbourne company Foghorn lets you go online to design a tee as an exclusive Christmas present, which will be delivered in just a few days. It's dead easy"
Connect, NewsLtd (National)
“Do you have the perfect slogan for a tee? Let those creative juices flow with Foghorn”
City Weekly (Sydney)
“These days with so much mass-produced clothing, it’s really hard to stay original. That’s why making a customised T-Shirt is the best way to stand out in the crowd. Be creative, express yourself all over your T Shirt and literally wear your heart on your sleeve…the newest player in the game is Foghorn Australia’s first major on-line, print-on demand T-Shirt house”.
Rip It Up Magazine (Adelaide)
“The user interface has been designed to minimise steps and provide customers with all purchasing tools in one space… the concept allowed consumers to create their own designs online, resulting in a unique T-shirt with an affordable price tag”.
Ragtrader (National)
“Design your own T-Shirt at www.foghorn.com.au from just $40 plus postage and receive your unique creation within two to four days. Now that’s fast fashion”
Sunday Herald Sun Sunday Magazine (Melbourne)
