Is what Prate�

about Prate

I don't think this shirt would make much sense to anyone who wasn't either a Dreamless member or a Prate� fan, but this was the very first Threadless shirt. The Jakes asked me to design a Prate tee for them after they came up with the idea of Threadless... so I tried to make something that was relevant to all of our 'online friends' at the time. That audience has obviously changed quite a bit and I don't think the average Threadless participant today would have any idea "is what Prate".

Here is a link to some of the oldest stuff remaining archived on Prate... this shirt is a good 6... maybe 8 months older than the link but it gives you an idea of what I was making back then. Click around:
