CHEERS...
to getting' "Clean for Gene." Retro will always be cool,
and now political junkies can
wear
some of the logos from Democratic
campaigns of the past, thanks to RetroCampaigns.com.
McGovern, Stevenson, Carter,
Humphrey, and a couple
Kennedys
are all there, and part of
the
money goes to SaveDarfur.org,
which is a nice bonus.
Those logos make me feel old.
And by old I mean, of course, hip,
cool and wise.

A
fashionable cure for your
ED...
Not that ED. Ew.
ED as in Electile Dysfunction:
Definition: The inability to
become aroused over any of the
choices for
President put forth by either
party during an election
year.
“Is anyone appealing to you in this years presidential race?”
“Naa… No one excites me. I think I’m suffering
from Electile Dysfunction.”
Vivian told me about this funny
term and a few days later I saw
these
hirts from RetroCampaigns.com.
... If current presidential
candidates had fun slogans like
candidates had
‘back in the day’ (aka before I was born), then I think
we’d cure a lot of the
political ED some people are
suffering from ...

The
shirts are printed on American
Apparel, with nice soft prints -
just the way I like them. I'd
definitely recommend picking
these up if you want to show off
your political know-how.

These
arent your usual
anti-Bush, Stop The Streets, We
Can Change range of tees
youll find at most stores
these days ...

Retro
Campaigns makes some of the coolest
new-old shirts Ive
come across ... Retro Campaigns
is one of the few places out
there that can pull off politically-themed
t-shirts without being
well, political about it
...
Its really
an impressive collection,
definitely check it out ...
The water-based inks and faded
design really contribute to
the
vintage look and feel ...
Its really neat to see some
of these shirts purely because it
reminds you of a time when the things that were
important to the American public
were much different than they are
now.
|

I
love niche sites, businesses,
approaches. It
takes a lot of confidence, belief
and ability to be successful with
niches - most people play
it safe and go for the mass
market.
But then they get lost in the
masses and struggle to stand out.
So when someone goes
'super-niche' I have even more
admiration, and that's what
Christine has done with her
t-shirt site Retro Campaigns.
She's not only gone for a
politics niche, not just an
American politics niche,
shes gone for old school,
retro, US political campaigns
niche. And what an amazing
job she has done with the
site - it looks beautiful,
it's informational and most of
all, it's easy to buy shirts.

You
look cool and knowledgeable in
their shirts! ...
Considering that this is an election year and politics is in
the news, we think this is a good
time to buy from this company
...
Our tee
is quite comfortable and soft.
It's made well, the graphics are
aligned correctly and silk
screened well.
The tee is American Apparel and
seems to be a medium heaviness,
good for all weather! It's also a
good length, coming to the
middle of our hips. It held up
great in the wash too! ...
We are quite pleased with our
tee and are sure we will get a
ton of use out of it.
We are big fans of this site,
and will be buying a lot from
them for presents for all our
political minded family and
friends in the future!

Back
to the Old Skool: Retro
Campaigns:
I know it seems like every
time I mention politics and
t-shirts
in the same sentence I’m
disparaging to both the
creators
and the wearers, but I do think
that there is a place in this
world
for tees that let people know
what you think without the
need to tell them ...
Retro Campaigns allays
my uneasiness
with political clothing ...
And
another mention here!
Retro
Campaigns have released seven new
tees, based upon their
winning formula of popular
political designs from the past,
which Im sure you guys
might find refreshing if
youre feeling a bit of
political burnout from the
relentless coverage of Obama vs
McCain.
Check
out a full shirt review
here!
I
love the way that the vintage
look of the tee makes it somehow
more honest than political tees
that we see today ... Print
quality is great, very soft, and
the vintage look is so good
that you may even be forgiven for
thinking that the tee is
'vintage' rather than 'vintage
look'.
|
|
|
|

One
t-shirt site that seems to share
my affinity for the past is Retro
Campaigns. You won't find any
Obama or Palin there just yet,
but can you
really go wrong with someone like
J.F.K.?
|

In
term of T-shirt and print
quality, and closeness between
what I perceive from on the
website and what actually get; I
give this tee 4 out of 5.
|
|
|
|

...
I immediately fell head over
heels when
first set eyes on it.
I got a George McGovern tee.
Obviously, the t-shirt is
supposed to look vintage and it
does but it also felt vintage,
especially with the printing
...
For Retro
Campaigns, the printing is
consummate ...
It's a printing miracle! ...
... And besides the swell
t-shirt, there was information
about
George McGovern attached to it.
It's a nice idea - to understand
what we are wearing.
I didn't know who McGovern was. I
just like the design, but after
reading about him, I have a
better appreciation of the guy
and his ideals.
I like,
nay, love Retro Campaigns ...
|

Yes,
I always vote for original
vintage but RCs
tees still give me an election.
I am most impressed by the entire
operation of this shirt company.
Impeccably timed given the
youthful climate of US politics, great
marketing and a slick website.
And once you fill out your order
ballot they actually deliver on
their promises - the
packaging is top notch and
includes a nifty button, a mock
ballot receipt and JFK fact
sheet. If youre considering
becoming an online proprietor of
t-shirts or running any
internet/mail based biz - a lot
can be learned here.

Check out
this interview
with Christine
from Retro Campaigns!
|

I
recently was introduced to a
quirky new t-shirt collection.
with all of the 2008 campaign
happenings happening, it is fun
to go retro with retro campaign
tees.
|
|
|
|

...
we found a way cooler political
option to rock in history class:
these tees at Retro Campaigns.
You can wear this one
[Students for Kennedy]
when learning about the first
televised presidential debates
(Kennedy vs. Nixon, 1960), or
this one [Democrats for
Reagan] when your teach is
going on about trickle down
economics (that's Reagan for ya).
No prof will be able to resist giving you an 'A'
in these looks.
|

I
ordered one and the second I
opened it I felt how soft it was
and how I could not feel the
print at all. I give it a solid
9. Everyone
check it out.

Are
you undecided in this years
presidential election?
Can’t decide on Barack or
Hillary? No worries.
Retro Campaigns puts a cool spin on the
political tee
- and you’ll already know
exactly who won, or lost.
They’ve got a great collection of ‘classic’
political tees
inspired by campaigns and
candidates long gone by.
So if you’re stuck in the
70’s, you can still
support Carter and
McGovern.
And
another mention here!
New
cool, retro political stuff 
|

It
is like they found a secret stash
of 40 year old political t-shirts
in mint condition and are
now sharing them with the
world.
The designs on the t-shirts makes
them look like they have already
been through the wash about 50
times or have
faded with age
which just adds
to the vintage vibe.
|
|
|
|

... You are going to have a lot of fun as well
as
land some really great shirts ...
Retro Campaigns takes you back in time
and has searched
high and low to bring you hard to
find
remembrances of the past and has
incorporated them into
T-shirts for today's fashion
...
|

Ok…since
when has an interest in
politics been cool?
Umm…since the moment
the
Retro Campaigns label hit the
scene.
Retro
Campaigns have managed to
tastefully adorn a range of
vintage-style tees with political
ink that will make even the most
uneducated appreciate the US
political leaders of eras goneby
...
|
|
|
|

A
very interesting and fun
concept... A lot of cool t-shirts
there ...

Feeling
nostalgic for the older, more
innocent days of politicking?
If so, the folks at Retro
Campaigns have you covered.
Each of the designs offered on
this site is brilliantly
imagined and perfectly on-point.
Heather/black ringer tees from
American Apparel and water-based
printed make the retro-feel of
these designs even more
authentic.
We love em!
|
|
|
|

Tired
of the politicos yet? Burnt out
by rhetoric?
Feel the need for real
change?
Maybe you need a look back instead of forward?
Kennedy '68, McGovern '72,
Jimmy Carter,
Willie, Stevenson, Humphrey,
Muskie,
they are all back and in the race at Retro
Campaigns
where "politics ain't what it used to be"... 
|

Buy:
Retro Campaigns --
This WeHo t-shirter reprints
iconic campaign images/slogans,
mostly from progressive
unelectables like McGovern
and McCarthy, whose "Get Clean
for Gene" volunteers sheared
their hippie hair so's to not
freak out New Hampshire.

|
|
|

If
youre a history buff, or
maybe old enough to have some
fond memories from the elections
40 years ago, then
Im sure that youll like these tees
...
The site design is pretty sweet
looking, too,
so you
should check it out.

Retro
Campaigns is a T-Shirt site with
a very
interesting premise ...
Any sharp eyed chemists in the
crowd have already worked out the
cleverness behind this
["Goldwater AuH20"]
shirt. 
|
|
|

Retro
Campaigns gives
those of us who are sick of all
this vitriolic debate a chance to
escape into our glorious past
...
Go to Retro Campaigns and buy a shirt or two
...
|

how
cool are these t-shirts from
Retro Campaigns?...
I'm gonna take it back old
school and say
"I'm Ready for Teddy," too.
|
|
|
fun
and creative designs
from a great little company
out west called Retro Campaigns
...
We think that they have
something
worth looking at.

|

... the great retro look
of this t-shirt makes it worth
wearing all on its own - no
matter what your political views
...
|
|
|

Theyve
got a lot of good stuff ... Its
a great sentiment embodied in
great design. [United
We Shall
Overcome]

I like especially the retro
minimalistic design ...
