Hey everybody! The Threadless Loves page has a new look, a new format, and we're celebrating it bigtime with… (drumroll) Threadless Loves Lollapalooza!



We all know Lollapalooza as the amazing 3 day music fest here in Chicago but were you aware of the actual meaning of the word? "Remarkable or wonderful person or thing!" And so for this leadoff Loves challenge, we want you to design an exceptional tee based on the true meaning of Lollapalooza! Your design could nab you a truly insane amount of prizing including 2 plane trips, tickets to the fest, tickets to the pre-party, an awesome hotel set up, and a slew of awesome stuff courtesy of Lollapalooza and some of the top artists of the fest! Submissions will be accepted through June 12.

Let's kick off the new Loves format with a bang!
Be a Lollapalooza and give this challenge a shot!

This is the mutt’s nuts & a challenging theme which is really exciting - only the best design gets to see Radiohead in Chicago & I'm guessing a Threadless store visit is part of the package?

Best of luck to all that enter!

I just realized that this is the first "loves" in which the sponsor doesn't love Threadless, Threadless loves the sponsor.

Awwww, nobody loves Threadless. Threadless is going to have to go out to the garden to eat worms. :(
