Highway Robbery - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever


This shirt does a great job of illustrating the insane gas prices these days, and it's even a bit humorous. I like just the general presentation of the issue.
Maybe could be a different color, though; possible white.

absolutely should be a different colour... will sell more that way. totally wicked print but I would have to buy it in something not orange.



Think how many poor ginger-kids will have to miss out on this tee because it will make them look like freaks?

no offense to the artist, but the colors on this are...well, awful. Not to even get into how it's maybe the poorest google vector steal I think I've ever seen. And if it's NOT a crap vector then it's a really bad drawing choice.

I have no idea how this scored as well as it did, unless all the voters suddenly decided to not hate a) poorly rendered images (the figure, I mean - the gas pump is nice), b) shadows and c) poor color choices.



and threadless already did a "woe, the gas prices shirt" with Grassoline. This shirt makes me think Grassoline should be hanging on a gallery wall somewhere.

just to let you guys know, i left shirt color choice up to the good people at threadless. i was as surprised as you at the orange, but i came to like it.



starr, i'm not even going to dignify your asenine comments with a serious response, you have no idea what you're talking about.

"insane gas prices"



okay I worked the quantity and exchange rate conversion and we pay in the UK an equivalent of over $7.50 US gallon, I just got back from florida and its less than $3 there, also at the moment the £ is really strong, if it was weaker it would work out even more that $7.50...



yeah think of yourselves lucky.



Though I did notice your cars only do like 20 - 30 mpg, while again the US conversion, a lot of UK cars hit almost 50 mpg. I dont like to bitch but maybe getting more efficient cars is the solution?

I would buy this if it were in a better color. Orange just doesn't work for me, sorry.

we need more orange shirts, but this illustration was ultimately naive in it's execution.



we're not being held up by the pump, you morons. we're being held up by politicians who use us for their political means.



if this shirt was accurate, it'd have george bush being ridden like a donkey by saudi royals, who are wearing blindfolds, pointing the gasoline nozzle at the consumer.



this design is a good start.

or are the real culprits the gas companies- using politics as an excuse? Every major gas company has continued to post a record profit. In any other market, a "crisis" such as this would affect the profit margins of industry players...

Can't it just represent that we're being held up at the pump? Anyway, I like the design as well as the color. IMO the orange works.
