New Without Tags 100% Cotton, Short Sleeve t-shirt. Designed in Los Angeles, Manufactured in China. This t-shirt series is all about “ISMS” - a distinctive practice, system, or philosophy, typically a political ideology or an artistic movement. This one is ESCAPISM!! The capsule as a whole is inspired by one of Abc's early t-shirt designs, “Purism,” which was an ode to a vintage David Hockney exhibition t-shirt. Each hand drawn design represents the abstract nature of any definition and its ability to be defined by (you) and redefined by (you). Sort of the contrary to what a definition is defined as, we at Abc. love few things more than a conceptual contradiction and creative ways of deconstructing what is. Each shirt features a quote by an influential writer or philosopher about or containing the particular “ism” printed onto a textured felt flap (which can be 1 of 5 miscellaneous colors), with the corresponding definition underneath. “Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and contraceptives…and to the “good life,” whatever it is and wherever it happens to be.” -Hunter S. Thompson
