When Baywatch ‘wave’d goodbye to our screens! xoxo
First aired in 1989 - Baywatch was one of the coolest shows on TV! Today marks the anniversary of the last ever show back in 2001. David Hasslehoff and Pamela Anderson running round wearing very little was probably the main highlight..but putting aside the tiny bikinis, and the even tinier speedos, it was also full of action packed story lines that seemed to keep us all entertained as we were growing up. Everything from earthquakes, shark attacks - serial killers, nuclear bombs....every now and again someone would nearly drown too - just a minor theme in the show!
As we are wise owls when it comes to retro trivia - we're going to fill you in on some exciting facts relating to Baywatch!
* We sell AMAZING Baywatch T-shirts (and some pretty cool Baywatch costumes!).
* Baywatch is the brainchild of producer Gregory J. Bonann. He was a lifeguard who often worked with Michael Newman and came up with the series idea about lifeguards based on his experiences.
* Gregory pitched the idea around Hollywood for years without success until his sister married TV writer Douglas Schwartz. Douglas later teamed with Michael Berk and sold Gregory's idea to NBC.
* At its peak in the mid-90s, Baywatch was seen by over 1 billion viewers, was shown in over 144 countries in 23 different languages.
* The show drew more female viewers than male. Statistics showed that female viewership was at a dominating 65 percent!
The Great Gastby Out This Thursday!
With the new movie due to be released in a matter of days we are excitingly awaiting being able to wear our The Great Gatsby T-Shirts!
An adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's Long Island-set novel, where Midwesterner Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire)is lured into the lavish world of his neighbor, Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio). Soon enough, however, Carraway will see through the cracks of Gatsby's nouveau riche existence, where obsession, madness, and tragedy await.
A few things you might not know about the book/film:
One alternate title for the book was, "Under the Red, White, and Blue"
New in from Amplified Clothing!
With the Sun just starting to peep it's little head from out of the clouds...well sometimes, we're feeling all Summery already which has sent our minds awash with thought's of the coming months and all that the good weather brings with it. One of the absolute highlights of any good Summer is of course.... Festivals (and well BBQ's of course).
Heading out to a big music event without even just one band t-shirt should frankly be considered a sin, okay okay so maybe turning up to the world biggest electro festival in a classic rock t-shirt might be a bit odd, BUT for the most of us attending the likes of Glasto, Reading and Leeds, Download, T in the Park etc, a humble rock t-shirt is the perfect partner in crime.
To help you guys find you perfect style this season, we've been working hard to bring in some amazing new designs that are sure to tickle your t shirt taste buds. Check out our latest collection from vintage t-shirt powerhouse Amplified Clothing....
Well...they're back and still at it! Yep The Rolling Stones have just kick-started their 50 Years and Counting Tour just last week in LA and as far as we can see, they've still got it! It's amazing how they can still bring so much energy and entertainment a whopping half a century on. We're celebrating this amazing feat with our latest Rolling Stones T-Shirts to show just that.
Yet another blast from the past! Black Sabbath are also still at it with their Nourth American tour kicking off in late July and some impressive UK dates booked in for December, there's just no stopping good music! Pay homage to the mighty Sabbath with our fab new Black Sabbath T-Shirts that are packed with vintage style and design. We dare you to find better :)

Grange Hill t-shirts at TruffleShuffle! xoxo
Grange Hill....we all grew up watching it, didn't we?
First aired in 1978 - it was the perfect time for us 80's kids. Following a group of rebel kids as they work their way through their school years - I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say it was a big part of our childhoods.
Having said that, can you IMAGINE the excitement on our little faces when our Grange Hill t-shirts landed at TruffleShuffle?
We were over the moon!
A genuine piece of TV history, this amazing, rare tee from Retreat features the original artwork by Bob Cosford, used for the iconic Grange Hill title sequence.
If it's good enough for Zammo....it's more than good enough for us!
