Back To The Grind

After a brief time away researching new products, (Ahem, on holiday), the S.D.F.C. is now back to full working order and it's full steam ahead towards Spring. Full of optimism and inspiration we've just recently uploaded six new t-shirts to the website, click on the corresponding pictures below to teleport you to their product pages. We have no idea how long our new positive approach will last, but we hope that we can...oh for f**k's sake look at that, it's raining.

The February Freeze

This is the current view outside the S.D.F.C. right now. Gorgeous isn't it? There's something about a heavy snowfall which stirs the imagination and teleports you back to simpler less stressful times. The snow has been threatening to fall for some time now and after a week of just slightly cold weather the temperature dropped and the the white stuff came down. Apparently in Aviemore it plummeted to -18 on Sunday evening.

However, no matter how cold it is outside things have been heating up nicely inside, as we've been hard at work getting new designs printed and uploaded onto the website. You can view them below:

Lone Pine Mall - Back To The Future

V8 Interceptor Wanted - Mad Max 2

Jaws Cast List - Jaws

Last Of The Independents - Charley Varrick

That is all.

Apologies

We realise that the radio silence on here has been deafening but that was mainly due to a hectic festive period in terms of work and socialising, but now with all of that over we can focus on keeping you guys updated on the latest developments at the S.D.F.C. We've released two new tees this week, (click on the pics for more info), one is a tribute to the 80s Sci-Fi classic Back To The Future and the other references Mad Max, (in a classified advert style). There is a reason for the basic design of the Lone Pine Mall tee as it's based on the original sign which you see in the film. Yes, we could have added a more detailed pine tree, made it look more artistic and pleasing to the eye, but as a fan of the movie and a friend of the S.D.F.C. pointed out, we would be doing the hardcore fans a disservice. The tee also subtly references an in-movie gag about the name of the mall, if you don't know it then we suggest you watch the movie again.
We have more designs on the way and around 20 current designs to be transferred onto our hoodie section so keep checking back for more regular updates. Enjoy.

Big Thanks

Since we launched our website back in 2006 this time of year has always been our busiest, but over the last six weeks we have been locked away pressing shirts at the S.D.F.C. like our lives depended on it. Not that we are complaining, far from it, especially in the current financial climate.
We have only now managed to surface for some much needed air and sustenance after our busiest pre-christmas period yet and we would like to thank all of our customers, new and returning, for purchasing our t-shirts. We are ecstatic that so many of you get pleasure from wearing our tees, which is really the only reason we ever started up The State Dept Of Fashion Corrections two years ago. We hope 2009 will be yet another exciting year for us and for you, we have a brand new website which we intend to tinker with in the coming 12 months and a few ideas up our sleeves which we hope will give you a few pleasant surprises. Until then friendo have yourself a disgracefully good Christmas.

Buy 2 Get a 3rd Free

With the world's economy in freefall and the doomsday merchants on the news 24/7 literally praying that we enter the greatest recession in 60 years, we thought we should offer you a little pre-xmas cheer in an otherwise thoroughly depressing time. If you go to the site between now and the 24th of Dec and order yourself, (or someone else), two t-shirts you'll get a third absolutely free. If you click on Christmas Steve above you can read all the details on how to go about getting three t-shirts for the price of two. Happy shopping.

Love Pumps

Women and money, women and shopping, women and shoes. It's like a mathematical equation which always presents the same answer - total satisfaction. A few of our male friends here at the S.D.F.C. have witnessed first hand the changes which take place when a woman is shopping for shoes. The giddiness, the shortness of breath, the trembling voice and the flushed cheeks all for some leather in a heel. Men on the other hand have sport, but in comparison that's nowhere near as satisfying...and we know it.

Frankie Is An Asshole

Here's a quick heads up about our latest t-shirt, currently available to buy at the S.D.F.C. If you turn the dial back to the 80s you'll remember there was some fuss made over a "Frankie Say Relax" t-shirt, printed as part of a publicity campaign for the pop group Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Well here's our take on the design, simply because the original is back in high street stores for a pocket bursting price of £35 ($69), and is now considered somewhat "chic", that coupled with the fact that we're sick of listening to what Frankie has to say!

Need Your Help With Sports Tees

We are massive fans of sport here at the S.D.F.C so as a result we've decided to design and print a batch of t-shirts exclusively based upon the subject. But we need your help in one particular category - Soccer.

We have the initial design for these tees in place but we need suggestions, for example we want to know what your favourite soccer squad of all time is and why? You need to state the club, the year and obviously the reason why you've made your choice, (eg, Brazil World Cup Squad 1970). Who knows we might run with your suggestion and come up with a tee just for your wearing pleasure. Email your entries to info@bonaroo.co.uk
