You Know You Grew Up In The 80s If...
As specialists in the finest 80s clothing on the web (yes I'm biased!) it's actually part of our job description to spend a good hour or two daydreaming of the greatest era ever every day. Growing up in the Eighties was a real treat and installed in us the knowledge to make some of the greatest retro tees just for you lucky guys! So take a couple of minutes out from your busy day to reminisce with me, You know you grew up in the 80s if...
...Saturday mornings were spent watching Going Live, wishing you had your own Gordon the Gopher.
...Your ideal classmate would have been Tucker Jenkins from Grange Hill.
...You had a hairstyle inspired by King of Mullets Pat Sharp.
Get more Big Bang for your Buck!
We are massive fans of the Big Bang Theory at Truffle Shuffle, the hilarious hi-jinxs of Sheldon and the gang has made being a geek cool again! So we are especially excited to present a couple of brand new Big Bang Theory T-Shirts for your deliberation.
These Bazinga T-Shirts are based on the catchphrase created by Sheldon Cooper and features the cast in a retro pixelated design for extra nerdy appeal! Available on a vibrant Antique Cherry Red Ladies tee and an Indigo Blue Mens T-Shirt.
If you know the Big Bang Theory like we do, then you will instantly recognise Sheldon, Howard, Raj and Leonard by their haircuts alone! Another fab Big Bang Theory tee to hit the shelves at Truffle Towers available on a light blue Ladies V-Neck tee and a Mens Khaki T-Shirt.
We love TruffleShuffle tees just as much as you do!
Working for the biggest online retailer of cool t-shirts, we see our fair share of amazing tees hit the shelves...! But which ones have stuck out? Do we have a favourite..and why do we love them so much? I've grabbed 10 minutes with a few of my favourite TruffleShufflers and asked them about their fashion tee-ndencies while they've worked here, and what generally makes them tick when it comes to the world of retro! Enjoy!
First up is James, the designer for TruffleShuffle (he's the one responsible for all the cool t-shirts - so we should probably take 5 minutes to applaud his geniusness!)
Favourite t-shirt ever produced? - Old Skool Gamer T-Shirt. I've been a massive computer game fan since I was about 10, so to get the opportunity to design a T-Shirt featuring all my favourite consoles and controllers was a bit of a treat.
Favourite range you've ever designed? - Sesame Street is always really fun to work with, they've got such a versatile range of characters and we're always allowed to do quite weird and wonderful things with them. Whether we've got Elmo and the gang crossing Abbey Road, joining a rock group or even recreating the Trainspotting movie poster they always make it look cool!
What was your first t-shirt ever purchased from TruffleShuffle? - My first T-Shirt from TruffleShuffle was one featuring Pac-Man and one of the Ghosts taking over Tokyo, it managed to look retro and modern at the same time and is still one of the favourite items in my wardrobe! It came from Chunk clothing who are always experts in doing weird mash ups with their characters.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.... Tracy Island Build is GO!!
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Thunderbirds are go! This week sees a new addition to our FAB collection of Thunderbird T-Shirts. This wicked tee, features some our favourite sci-fi puppets, from The Thunderbirds in a cool, beatles-eque album cover design. Inspired by the famous With The Beatles cover, this print features the faces of Brains, Parker, Lady Penelope, and Scott in a cool black and white photographic effect. A perfect addition to your collection of cool t-shirts!!
No collection of retro TV tees would be complete without at least one great Thunderbirds tee, so to celebrate the launch of this new design we thought we'd take you back a time when a shortage of Tracy Islands in the run up to Christmas saw a famous Childrens TV Show show you how to avoid the disappointment of not having a Tracy Island by making your very own.... My guide is made up from a mix of the Perfect Housewife Extrodinare Anthea Turner's Blue Peter show and the very helpful Bluepeter Fact Sheet.
Having heard stories of the build taking weeks if not months, due to collecting all the various bits and bobs, waiting for things to dry etc. Needless to say this isn't a project to take lightly or one that you can do in a week, it takes a lot of patience and determination but would be completely worth it at the end.
