It's definitely summer here, with the heat index peaking around 110 F this week. But if we can't get out of the heat, we might as well look good in it! Our uber-talented developer / designer Andrew put this shirt together, and his choice of electronic marigold couldn't have had a better reception. The design is fantastic, and we thank Andrew for his hard work. Below are the shirts as seen through the beautiful lens of an iPhone 4. 

The stylish Chad is an instant sensation with this summery shirt set on display. Are those arrows symbolic of Element Fusion's rising success or are they directions to the gun show?

Spring is in the air here at Element Fusion, and the imaginative spirit of our designers is in full bloom. Along with a new season comes a new in-house designer tee. The delicious design by Neill Harmer delicately streaks down the front into a splash of refreshing seafoam. And what better way to celebrate Element Fusion's tenth anniversary than a retro t-shirt designed to remind you of the dark times before our company began. 

Check out the new shirt below.

Here's a closer look at the design.

Every quarter, one of the designers on our team creates an original design for a new Element Fusion t-shirt. Our Winter 2009 edition was released today at our company Christmas lunch. Designed by Matt Grimm, this EF shirt is themed for the holidays. As always, our own Chad Jaggers models the t-shirt spendidly below.

Chad demonstrates how giving gifts is even more thought provoking and serious than ever in the new Element Fusion shirt.

Here’s a look at the design up close.

The tradition continues. Today, we unveiled Element Fusion's Summer 2009 t-shirt, designed by Chris Borah. The white shirt is perfect for deflecting the hot summer sun while the offset graphic, consisting of a smattering of original lyrics over an obfuscated image of Mount Rushmore, symbolizes ... well, actually, we have no idea what the lyrics or images mean. But that's ok. Chris is a pretty deep thinker so I'm confident there are layers and layers of meaning here that will continue to be unpacked for years to come.

Alright, so here's a look at the shirt as worn by our in-house t-shirt model, Chad.

Late last year, we began a new tradition here at EF. Every quarter, we design and print a t-shirt. We have lots of talented designers on our team and they take turns creating their masterpieces of wearable art.

The shirts are printed in limited quantities. Every Element Fusion employee receives the quarterly shirt, and each shirt is also framed and displayed as artwork here in our corporate offices. Plus, we usually have a few shirts left over from each run that we can give away here and there whenever we feel the need.

Up to now, we haven't featured our quarterly shirts on our blog, so I wanted to make sure we did so. So far, we've completed two different shirts, and you can see them below. Of course, there will be more to come and we'll be sure to share them here as they arrive.
