A Tshirt and Some Superhero Supplies

American Apparel Thermochromatic Tag
My sister just returned last week from New York and brought along some sweet gifts.
First item is this Thermochromatic “Hypercolor” tshirt from American Apparel. Hypercolor was a clothing line that introduced temperature sensitive clothing in the trendy late 80’s. However, after technical issues, production stopped. Typically, I am not a fan of American Apparel, but their rescue of this item is much appreciated.

The next two items are from the Brooklyn Superhero Supply Co. store at 826NYC. 826 is a national organization of writing centers founded by Dave Eggers in San Francisco (the first 826 center is 826 Valencia). I’m a big fan of Dave Eggers and the organization and hope that everyone will click through the links to find out more about the initiative. I plan to have a dedicated post about 826 in the future.

    You know, those Thermochromatic shirts were hot in the early 90s.

    yep. Hypercolor made it rain back then. Hence my appreciation for AA.
