Rosser Riddle
We caught up with Rosser Riddle who's shirts you may have seen around Atlanta or at Citizen Supply. He gave us some insight as to how and why he started his line, what his design process is like, and where inspiration comes from. How long have you been running your clothing line? I "launched" in January of 2014, but, I spent a couple of years prior to that sampling, tinkering, and procrastinating. I started working in fashion in 2009 ... Read More

Everybody Can Draw | A Talk with Josh Lafayette on Diversity, Drawing, and Design
There is a reason that the Red Curtain exists on airline flights. Yes, it does give off a feel of luxury and prestige but that isn’t the only thing it provides. One of the main functions is to limit exposure from any one who isn’t on the proper side of the flowing cloth.

Why Do Polyblend Fabrics Feel Softer Than Cotton?
The softest ink you can put on a T-shirt is Water-Based Ink. The best fabrics to showcase its softness are triblend and poly-cotton blend shirts because they’re the softest. With all the hype around 100% cotton shirts, it's easy to overlook these higher end fabrics. Why are they the softest kind of T-shirts available? Let me give you some science by looking at each under magnification. First, some good examples of these shirts are Canvas’s Unisex Triblend Short Sleeve Tee (3413) or their Unisex Poly-Cotton Short Sleeve Tee (3650). Blended fabrics ... Read More
