TTC Merch - People with Better Ideas Respond

Posted by Tanja / October 3, 2006

20061003-kissnride.jpgLast week I posted about the painfully bad TTC clothing that the commission has come up with in an attempt to market themselves. You shuddered. (Hardly a surprise).

Today, reading the Spacing Wire, I was directed to a Torontoist post where a local designer has taken a crack at presenting some better ideas. While a couple are a lil' too iron-on looking, most are absolutely brilliant and totally wearable (and wantable).

Check out the rest here.

If these are printed on quality shirts, I'll buy a few for sure. Way to go, Lostracco!

I think his understanding of where he stands on copyright and more importantly trademark infringement is a tad optimistic but he does have some cool ideas there.

Marc's designs are, in general, close to genius. I'd buy the green elevator guy in a heartbeat, and the Mind the Gap and Transfer Required rocks my socks off.

This is what the TTC should have released last week.

Jeez...Spacing Wire? Local designer? That's a really roundabout way to say Torontoist posted these images, lame-o.

Yay! That Kiss & Ride was my idea! I mean, I suggested he add it to his original batch of submissions...

Um, someone reading selectively? It clearly says Torontoist in the post. The link is also posted. The website didn't create the shirts, the person did. Hence specific phrasing. Release the pickle.

I want to see Vomit Comet or how about a hockey jersey or football jersey with Vomit Comets!
