Repping your ends

South Westers are proud of where they come from so I thought I'd put together some of the ways Bristolians, Devonians, Kernow(lians?), Plymouthians, and other SW-ians can wear their heart on their chest.

First, to Bristol and to Beast Clothing, whose t-shirts are gert lush! Speak like a true Bristolian with their Brizzle Language School, then pop to their outlets (Wherezat to, then?) where you'll find gems of t-shirts like "Cheers, Drive", "Alright my luvver?", and "Proper Job". They're just the ones I recognise!


Living in South Devon and want the world to know? Then help Peoples Republic of South Devon out and wear one of their t-shirts, while also finding out about local arts, culture, politics all around the South Hams.

Of course, Cornish folk feel strongly about their beuatiful county, so if you are a Cornish maid or dén, then represent with this great Cornwall Rocks t-shirt from http://www.kernowclothing.com/.

They use Fair Trade, Carbon Neutral, Soil Association Approved Organic Cotton. Phew!

Also, on eBay, fulfill your love of pasties with the Half-Man Half Pasty tshirt. Well, it tickled me!
Or make sure everyone knows you're not an emmet, with this tshirt from The Cornish T-shirt Factory.

Don't forget Plymouth, and tell the world you got soul, Plymsoul. I've seen people with these t-shirts on since I first became a student in P-town, you can get yours at Soul Life (on the Barbican), FortyFive, or online at http://www.plymsoullife.com.

And if you want the whole world to know just how proper lush the South West is, then treat yourself to this "The South West" tshirt, which looks to be available in Forty Five too. I like the one that takes it a la Francais, "Le Sud Ouest" too.



I'm sure there's some other local t-shirts to make you beam with pride for the rolling valleys and sunny coastlines of our South West. I want to hear about them! Please get in touch!
Till next time, me luvvers!

Hullo there.
Nice to see such good South West t-shirts knocking around. If only ours from the People's Republic of South Devon (http://www.peoplesrepublicofsouthdevon.co.uk/)
could get in the mix.
Check 'em out in our shop! (please)

All the best
