Day 326



A few weeks ago, Leeds based print and brand specialists Awesome Merchandise interviewed me to find out more about my THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE T-shirt challenge. You can read the full interview on their website here.

One of the questions Jhon asked me that didn't make it into the published article was "What do you get up to in your spare time Andi?"
"Well Jhon," I began. "I like to just tear my face off, you know? Just strip away the flesh right down to the bone, throw on some shades and a bandana - maybe some spiked cuffs if I'm feeling particularly deranged. Then, after a few fresh tats, I like to head down to the beach and catch some gnarly waves. There's nothing more satisfying, and I mean nothing, than teasing my surfboard in perfect harmony around the clear blue undulating waves of the ocean, while unloading countless rounds of ammunition on helpless innocent sunbathers".

"It's funny you should say that," said Jhon, entirely non-plussed...

A few days later, a package of luminous T-shirt donations arrived from Awesome Merchandise. I'm wearing the first tee from the delivery for Day 336 and as you can see, it features an illustration depicting pretty much my everything that I do in my leisure time.
It's a branded T-shirt entitled Mega Awesome and is just one example of the variety of products that Awesome Merchandise can customise with imagery and printed branding, so if you've got an event or campaign coming up this Christmas or even in the New Year, give these guys a call - their work is flawless.

THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE Project

Hi, I’m Andi Best and I’m a regular guy, rising to an irregular challenge.

People tell me I have a lot of T-shirts. These people are not wrong, it’s true, I do.

But one person went as far as to tell me I have so many T-shirts, I could probably wear a different one every day. This is obviously not true, but it got me thinking - what if I could wear a different T-shirt every day? What if I never wore the same T-shirt twice for an entire year?

Challenge accepted

I have created project THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE which, beginning January 1st 2013, will track my pro gress sourcing and wearing a different T-shirt every day for the next 365 days – and I’m going to need your help to do it…
