Newschoolers,

I come before you with my new brand, INK MENSWEAR -- Ties with custom artwork on the "tail", but clean on the "tongue".

We just launched on Kickstarter today > http://kck.st/1M3WBVE
The normal site is > http://www.inkmenswear.com

My purposes for telling Newschoolers are three fold:

1. To spread joy and ties across the universe. And to bring these glorious new ties to your attention.

2. To find artists. I know many of you may know local artists (or are local artists!) hoping to get involved. We are going to be collaborating with more artists in the future, so if that's you, hit me up.

3. To gather general opinions/feedback.

With humility,

- Candy

That was a classic. Didn't they want like $12,000?

To take random fabric, sew pockets on purchased shirts, upside down so they're useless and then sell them for too much money. And even though they could do that with a sewing machine to start they wanted all that money so they could have somebody else do any work because they were to lazy to even make their shitty shirts.

I mean jesus. The shirt was already made, the pocket wasn't even functional, and made of some ridiculous/clashing fabric. It wouldn't have mattered if it wasn't perfect, it wasn't actually going to hold anything. But they needed to start out on the top floor.

these are really awesome but that $15 delivery charge outside the US will prevent me from buying one unfortunately

great idea though. Do you guys have any retailers signed up yet?

Not at all comparable to upside-down-pocket or ladies-ladies. Actually a pretty neat idea IMO, might look into further...

respects for actually starting up your own business, good luck with getting funding. Not really for me but as long as you believe in your idea thats all that matters. Don't let hate get you down.

We could have a ladies ladies x upside down pocket guys x tie. The tie has ladies ladies art on the inside part, it's worn upside or like has a pocket or something.

lolz aside OP your ties are considerably more practical than the other ideas.
