If you’ve been searching for something more than a grubby football shirt, then stop scouring the shops and take a closer look at the range offered by Pocket Designs. From humble beginnings in 2001 as a small design business specialising in flyers, illustrations and other promotional material, this independant Perth artist now specialises in a range of premium quality men’s fitted tees, and vinyl canvases and prints. So far an exclusive Australian label, Pocket Designs is set to invade the European markets this season with a bold collection of tees. Inspired by the rich and intriguing imagery of Japanese culture, Pocket’s distinct collection is a hybrid of anime, vectorised graphics and an original style of illustration. Taking all the bad boys’ favourite toys – old-skool comic books, computer war games and shamelessly busty cyber-girls – the edgy designs are printed onto bright-coloured, custom-designed t-shirts. In the Pocket universe, futuristic troops of bionic insects meet irresistibly exaggerated silhouettes of fatally cute femmes and fierce warriors.
