Local Boston Artists At Emulsion Apparel

Another new t-shirt shop that I’ve been informed of is Emulsion Apparel. They feature designs from local artists in Boston and some of them are quite unique. They have the typical brand shirts with just their name on them but even those look really great. I don’t usually dig those types of shirts but in this case I can make an exception. Most of their designs are catered towards the skater culture with a heavy artistic tint.

One thing I didn’t realize until I started to grab links for this post was that their shop runs on Big Cartel. I’ve written about them before and it just goes to show how powerful their platform is. I’d recommend it to anyone looking to start their own brand.

The design Shroomwhale really caught my eye. I hope it’s something I can see more from them in the future. It was done by Sean McCabe and hopefully he does some more designs for them soon. It’s got a lot going on but the composition of the elements really makes it visually pleasing. If designs like this are any indication of what’s to come from Emulsion Apparel, consider my excited!
