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.
Happy Birthday The Beano!
Well we never! We could barely believe our little eyes when we saw that today marks the amazing 75th anniversary of one of our all time favourite and iconic comic books The Beano!
Yep on this very day back in 1938 when even real life was in black and white (probably), The Beano was first launched on its long and magical journey, keeping kids just like us entertained and wanting more.
This got us wondering though...how much has it changed since these prehistoric early days? Any old and forgotten characters? Let's take a little trip down comic strip memory lane and see for ourselves...
1938: This first edition of the Beano appears (see above), dated 30th July. Stories include Big Eggo (an ostrich), Pansy Potter: The Strongmanâs Daughter and the more enduring Lord Snooty and his Pals which lasts into the 1990s. No real hint of the beloved characters we know now huh.
#DidYouKnow? There are only twelve copies of the first issue known to still be in existence, and only 5 known copies of the second issue! A copy of this first issue sold for £12,100 in 2004.
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.
TruffleShuffle Buyers Look of the Month!
We are right in the middle of festival season and with a new delivery of fabulous Worn By tees, I have been inspired (yet again) to go all rock chick!
ROCK CHICK LOOK
I think this New Order T-Shirt from Worn By (£27.99) would look great slung over a pair of leather look leggings (£32 Topshop). Worn with a pair of funky catseye sunnies, you are all set to go!
