Three of our designs are now available in Men’s 2XL and 3XL: Donkey Pegasus, Gorilla and Duck, and Crocodile and Shark. We’d love to offer these sizes for all of our designs, but it may not be possible for a while. Continental, the company that makes the bamboo/cotton shirts we use for some of our designs, currently does not carry sizes larger than XL. Hopefully they will soon. We’re also hoping they add some new shirt colors.
If you’ve been reading this blog since it was started back in June, the new Crocodile and Shark design might look familiar:
I took the old Ouroboros design which was previously submitted to Uneetee and revamped it. Why did I change the design? Personally, I prefer a simpler color scheme, and while I liked the old version well-enough, it is more in the subtle style of Donkeyshines now. This design does feature some differences from our other shirts, however. First of all, instead of having separate styles for men and women, we went with a tubular, looser-fitting unisex shirt. This allows us to sell it at a lower price than our other shirts, at just $19.99. It also allowed us to do something that our fans have been requesting for a while now, which is to carry 2XL and 3XL sizes. Hope you like it!
Our holiday cards are now available, in money-saving 10 packs (with envelopes) for $17.98! Check out the Monkey Snowman and Santa Witch. If you are having trouble deciding which one to pick, get 5 of each card in our Holiday Cards Mix Pack.
There is a relatively new t-shirt indexing site called PleaseDressMe, and these guys are really great. Donkeyshines has 6 of our shirts indexed there, and we featured our Robot Penguin shirt as their shirt of the day this past Friday. I can sit there for hours using their randomize feature to see what fun shirt will pop up next. We recommend you index all of your favorite shirts from all over the net with them so these guys can keep growing.
One of the things that sets Donkeyshines apart from other T-shirt sites is the use of paintings to display the t-shirts. While I plan to keep these, I also want to add photo galleries for each design. Who will be my models? Well, I’m hoping YOU will. If you’ve purchaced a Donkeyshines t-shirt, and don’t mind showing your mug on the internet, send pics of yourself wearing them to: photos@donkeyshines.com. Please be sure to say what size you are wearing in the photo. If you want to tell me other details such as where the photo was taken, feel free. The example below is of someone wearing a men’s medium forrest green Nessie in a Fishbowl shirt. It was taken in Subic Bay, Philippines!
It may be a little early to announce this, but Donkeyshines will “soon” be selling X-mas cards. Probably by early to mid November, we’ll offer packs of 10 and 20 of 2 different designs. Why will a t-shirt store be selling greeting cards? Why only for X-mas? Look for answers to these questions and more over the next month or so. Here’s a sneak preview of one of the designs-
Why a Seal Samurai? I liked the idea of making a notoriously cute, yet helpess animal become less helpless, but still as cute. I originally considered making him fighting off a hunter, but I didn’t want to put a human on a shirt. Plus, polar bears are also cute. Even when they’re picking on seals, which are even cuter.
This is little bulletin is coming days after it was actually released, but, well, here’s the Octopus Web:
Stay tuned for yet another design in the next couple of weeks. This one will feature the cutest animal ever to exist on planet earth…
The Donkey Pegasus is now available! And check back tomorrow for YET ANOTHER new design!
Our first donkey-themed t-shirt design should be available early this week:
Also, the Pterodactyl model painting is completed and you can see it here.
