Need it, Want it: Public Trust and Fur Face Boy Have a Limited Edition T shirt

Via: http://blogs.dallasobserver.com/




"Public Trust, why does one love?"

"Fur Face Boy, because loving only yourself would be foolish." 

 

We're digging this collaboration trend, especially when it translates into wearable art created by local designers. This Thursday, Ha Mai (who you know as Fur Face Boy) and The Public Trust will release this great new t-shirt at an equally cool event.
Billed as An Evening with Fur Face Boy, you'll cozy up to an informative chat with Ha Mai who will explain how he successfully transitioned into self-employment as an artist/illustrator/apparel wizard. He'll answer questions, give advice on branding and marketing your craft and discuss the ups and downs of being your own aesthetic boss.
It's free, and happening from 7 to 9 p.m. at The Public Trust. They've only pressed 60 of these tees, so Thursday could be your only chance to snag one. They cost $25.

FFB creator, Ha Mai, will talk about his brand, his personal background as a graphic designer, how he came about the Fur Face Boy brand, how to market your brand, what to avoid, pursuing a life that YOU want to live, plus answering any questions that you may have for him.

To top it all off he will be releasing some new product which includes the second FFB X THE PUBLIC TRUST collaborative t-shirt (in an edition of 60). It is going to be a great night, hope to see you there.

Astro Fur 3.0 T-Shirt by Fur Face Boy

For the past few months Ha of Fur Face Boy has really changed up his game. Instead of releasing planned t-shirt collections, he’s been randomly dropping previously unannounced limited edition designs through the FFB online store. These t-shirt designs have tied into everything from hit summer movies to the 2012 London Olympics, but for yesterday’s design Ha went old school. Back when Fur Face Boy first launched in 2009, Ha released a very low run of the original Astro Fur tee based on the hit Japanese manga series Astro Boy. Then last year for FFB Series 6, he released a second version of the design dubbed “Astro Fur 2.0”. Well, Ha is bringing back Astro Fur once again, but this time with a galactic twist!

Astro Fur 3.0 by Fur Face Boy continues with 2.0’s dissected theme, but surrounds our fur faced hero in a space landscape featuring a crazy array of psychedelic colors. Astro Fur 3.0 has a limited edition run size of only 20 pieces and retails for $27.99 at the Fur Face Boy online store. If you want to get your hand on this trippy tee act fast, because sizes are limited and many have already sold out.
