TumbleDryLow: Collapse

It’s been a minute since I’ve done a Tum­bleDry­Low post, so here’s the jury dury edi­tion com­ing at you straight from the court­room wifi!
For the record, I didn’t wear this shirt to jury duty. 

This most excel­lent “Sex, Drugs, Hel­vetica Bold” shirt is from Col­lapse.

You guys know by now that I’m a cer­ti­fied Hel­vetica FREAK, so when I saw this I imme­di­ately had to own it.

Even the pack­ag­ing it came in was totally slick!

There are a cou­ple things about the shirt that some folks might not like. First, the low­er­case l in “bold” is tilted (which is a trade­mark of most col­lapse shirts, as well as their logo). I think it’s sort of neat, but it might offend some type purists out there. Also, they don’t make a girly fit ver­sion of their tees. All that said, I’m extremely happy with my pur­chase from them. 

Next on my wish­list is their “Will Kern for Food” shirt!

    Hey,

    Hel­vetica is an incred­i­ble font. But per­son­ally, love for the Helv turned out to be a gate­way drug for Univers and her (younger but more refined) sis­ter Frutiger. Why Hel­vetica as opposed to those two?

    Love,

    D

    p.s. Awe­some shirt!
