Dusty Brand Clothing

A Red Sox girl through and through, this t-shirt from Dusty Brand Clothing makes the Shirt Snob very very happy. There are not enough feminine items for the Red Sox fan. Many are pink or some other awful color, which is blasphomous to many fans. Others are just plain ugly. None say anything interesting or witty. This Red Sox shirt is perfect, it's a feminine cut but not overly girly (don't want to seem too high maintanence at the ball park), and it's unique; you won't find a thousand other female fans wearing it.

Along similar locale lines, check out the Mass Hole t-shirt. The company is based in Boston, so many of their shirts have a Massachusetts appeal. As a resident of this fine state, the Shirt Snob must say that we like to see local tees.

Overall, the Shirt Snob is a fan of the shirts that Dusty Brand Clothing carries for women. It seems that until a few months ago, many of the popular online t-shirt companies didn't have much if anything for us. Men were the ones who got the funny shirts, while women were forced to buy and tailor men's shirts or shop at Abercrombie and Fitch and American Eagle to find something slightly humourous. That is no more! Dusty Brand is a fine example of a company willing and eager to engage the female market. They are constantly coming up with new shirts for women and are actively looking for designers for more graphic tees.

Overall, we like Dusty Brand's selection. Their shirts are funny without being too over the top. Many of them lean towards the liberal side (i.e., viva la bubba) which may alienate some potential buyers, but not me. My favorites on this site besides the Red Sox and bubba shirts are the new Dog Trainer tee and Mexcellent.
