Over 15 years ago, Kidrobot brought art to life in the form of vinyl for the first time. Through its history KR has tried to support the creators, the groundbreakers, the artist and the art. While the organization has evolved throughout the years as all organizations must do in order to stay alive, Kidrobot’s core principles and mission of bringing art to life still remains. Supporting the art community, inspiring creation and providing a platform to bring emerging / groundbreaking artists to the forefront is at the root of who we are and what we believe in.

Designer Con started in 2005 in a 1100 sq. ft room and was called “VTN” (Vinyl Toy Network) back then. Fast forward to 2017 to over 500 vendors and 35,000 people in attendance, Designer Con aka DCon is now one the most highly anticipated annual events in the designer toy scene. Celebrating artists that are part of (or have been part of) Designer Con over the years, the Kidrobot x DCon Dunny Series is a shout out to artists’ loyalty and creativity. Highlighting different art, styles, and design, this mini series is a small bite out of the extensive talent that art and events bring together.

RhymeSquare Spring ’14 T-Shirt Collection

The awesome UK indie clothing brand RhymeSquare has just had a massive relaunch of their website, and to celebrate they’ve dropped four killer new t-shirts designed by Jon-Paul Kaiser! Each design features the brand’s mascot WhereBear sporting a different look. From thugged out to sci-fi, the RhymeSquare Spring ’14 t-shirt collection has a little something for everyone. While the “CamoBear” crossbones design is really nice, The Blot’s favorite new design is the “Bear’N’Bun” tee. What can I say, I love me some hamburgers!

Jon Paul Kaiser x outsmART originals “Wings” T-Shirt

In the past year Jon Paul Kaiser has been released some seriously awesome new t-shirt designs! For JPK’s newest release, he reteams with outsmART originals to produce a striking new black and white design entitled “Wings.” This tee was designed to give you that free spirit feeling whether you're hitting the road with the wind at your back, or just sitting around and enjoying the breeze.

The “Wings” t-shirt by Jon Paul Kaiser is currently available in black through the outsmART originals’ online store for $20 in sizes M-XL.

RhymeSquare T-Shirt Collection

The Blot can’t lie, I know next to nothing about the new indie UK clothing brand RhymeSquare. I really only found out about these awesome shirts because of Jon-Paul Kaiser’s involvement. I assume JPK designs the tees, but I can’t even confirm that. I’ve visited their website, Facebook page and Twitter account but there’s no real info out there! Come on guys, help a blogger out with an “About” page. Thankfully they make some really fun t-shirts that make up for the lack of info.

Most of RhymeSquare’s t-shirt designs feature the brand’s mascot WhereBear, a sunglass sporting bear who’s not afraid to let it all hang out (literally). From browsing through their t-shirt catalogue it looks like most of the RhymeSquare tees are limited edition and include a signed and individually numbered swing ticket. It’s a nice little touch for the indie clothing connoisseur looking for the freshest limited edition tees.

All of the t-shirts seen here and so much more are now available through the RhymeSquare online store in sizes S-XXL for £20 each.
