Feature site – Out of Print Clothing

Our feature site is: Out of Print Clothing

We wanted to showcase the site in the best manner possible and felt that it would be in the form of a few questions from us and answers from the site owners.

Here is what they had to say:

Describe your site and the concept behind it.

Out of Print is a place for people to be bookish. We channel the worlds of art, literature, and fashion into a line of t-shirts that celebrate some of the world’s greatest stories.

What is unique about your site?

The art we license to make up our collections is rare, sometimes first edition, and always visually stunning. The way the art is fitted to the garment it is hard to tell if it is a book cover or just a really cool design.

We also have done a lot of work to make sure our site and products allow our customers to share their love of reading with others. Each shirt we sell makes possible the donation of one book to a community in need through our partner Books For Africa.

What factors motivated you to start your site?

A major catalyst was seeing how the experience of book reading is changing with the advent of digital readers like the iPad and Kindle. There’s a very good chance that the common way of reading a book in the future will be different than it is now. We felt it is important to reflect on what is special about reading before it changes. For Out of Print, a big thing we love about books is the cover art.

Do you just offer T-shirts?

It’s time to start judging a shirt by its cover.

Final Thoughts from PCT

I have to admit that I have never been a traditional reader of novels, but after looking at these shirts, I’m compelled to pick up a few books. In a digital world, we often forget how words, like colors on a screen, can also paint colorful and awesome pictures in our minds. Keeping alive this analog form of artistry is one reason why you should support Out of Print. The distribution of books to underserved areas is another.

The pictures alone on the front page are worth the visit. Let the page reload a few times and you’ll be treated to a photographic slideshow filled with memories, nostalgia, and a longing for an earlier time.
