The Unofficial 2008 Olympic T-shirt
Categories: Style

Two guys in Hong Kong decided to come up with a shirt that promotes unity in the Beijing Olympics. This unoffical shirt lists all the participating countries in a colorful track like version. Only 888 tees have been manufactured since the olympics kick-off on 08.08.2008.
Althought the t-shirt is a simple design. I’m most impressed with School’s website. Each 888 tee is numbered and when a tee is purchased, the site shows the name of the customer, location, and a special shoutout message.
If you know me by now, yes I’m looking into buying it, particularly #819.

NIECEE’s TAKE AWAYS:
- Limited edition with meaning. I really like the fact that School really understands youth and how to use limited edition without the overkill. They also turned something that has a lot of negative controversy and turned it into a more positive message.
- 15 seconds of fame. Seriously, one of the reasons I’m thinking of buying #819 isn’t because I like the color of the shirt and it’s packaged in a cool Ziploc bag. It’s because my name will be in spot #816!
