Music nerds tend to be a bit snooty. So if you’d like to gift one some clobber this festive season, you’ll need to do better than a slogan T‑shirt from Urban Outfitters.
Fortunately, it’s not too tricky to get your hands on a good music tee these days. Instead of just slapping their album cover on a T‑shirt, artists are dropping increasingly stylish merch (incentivised, maybe, by the fact it’s one of the few ways to make some profit). There’s a strong bootleg scene out there, and there’s so much hype about vintage at the moment that people seem willing to splash £120 on a moth-bitten Slipknot t‑shirt from 2002. At least it’s environmentally-friendly.
So, as Christmas approaches, here’s some advice on how to buy a T‑shirt that’s actually cool.
