Anniversary Tee and Punk Muffin Coming May 12th

THE PRE$$ — Thu, 03 May 2012 19:05:30 +0000

Coming to you May 12^th, 2012, to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Urban Misfit Society, I am proud to announce the release of our Limited Edition Anniversary Tee, as well as Punk Muffin, our new line of kid’s apparel. Since UMS started production in early 2011 we have been so fortunate to collaborate with several highly respected artists. I am pleased to share with you today that both our anniversary shirt and Punk Muffin collection will be featuring such collaborations!

The anniversary tee is a limited edition of 100 prints. Designed by Brian Love, each shirt is packaged in a craft paper string tie envelope. Each envelope has a unique piece of artwork done by graffiti artist Antonio Murrajo AKA Tony Stark. On the package you will find that Tony has left both his signature and numbered your package by hand. With your package you will also be receiving a hand numbered letter of appreciation and authenticity that includes the signatures of the co-founders Brian and Ellie Love.

Punk Muffin by UMS is sure to delight you and your little one. The 1950’s classic themed design work on this project is both streamline and modern. Head designer Brian Love worked the graphics out of hand drawn images by Johnny Vickers. The initial collection will be featuring four Punk Muffin originals that will all run from 2T to 6T.

We would also like to give a special thanks to Sean and Stefanie Montano, the owners of Stilo Lifestyle Accessories, for supporting us and helping to connect us with some of the amazing artists we have had the pleasure of working with. Stay tuned over the next ten days for more releases on teasers, information and the finished product.

Much Love,

UMS

Break Dancer Spunjbob at City Vs City

Whether you’ve been with UMS since day one or just found us, welcome and thanks for your support. Thanks to Natane and Chris Lim of check-it productions and The Sisters of The Underground, this past Saturday we were more than blessed to be a vender at City Vs City right here in Albuquerque, NM. We have met so many inspirational people through the Breaking scene and wanted to share them with you. This national break dancing battle is a showcase of strength, creativity and hometown pride. The Evening was filled with one on one battles and city vs city battles where each group worked the crowd, bared their souls and duked it out to take 1st place home for their City. We managed to take a lot of great photos of the dancers in action that we will share on our Facebook page. Please stop by and check them all out!
Don’t Sleep,
UMS

Occupy Small American Buisnesses (Urban Misfit Society)

THE PRE$$ — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 20:55:57 +0000

As a small business, we look forward with excitement to growth and anticipate hiring more staff as we go along. We believe that small businesses are crucial in rejuvenating the economy and providing the needed jobs and income to support individuals that are hurting in these difficult times. We appreciate all of you that support us and we know that we must strive as a company to live up to the expectations we have of others. This is why UMS prints all our Tee’s on American Apparel. By purchasing a T-shirt from UMS you not only support our company here in New Mexico but our printers, and our Tee manufacturer (all USA companies). As a small American business we must support our peers to keep it going. We aren’t perfect and occasionally outsource something we just can’t find in the USA but we consistently deliver quality American made products that boost the economy nationwide and we appreciate all that you do in your daily lives to lend others a hand by encouraging american industries with your purchases. We know you have a lot of options when shopping clothing and accessories so we want to thank you for choosing Urban Misfit Society.

Urban Misfit Society Celebrates 6 Months

THE PRE$$ — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 20:45:53 +0000

This past September has been our busiest month ever. We had a variety of things happening and at times it felt like the work was mounting too fast, but we couldn’t be happier! We released 3 new designs and our first ever commercial! We also received a tremendous response at the event ‘What you don’t see’ this last month that was hosted on our behalf by our featured retailer, Stilo Lifestyle Accessories. The event featured those 3 new designs released in September and the Man Eater video previously mentioned. We shipped the first of many international orders to come. In addition to all this we also set a new monthly sales record! Having saved the best for last, this all came along just in time to celebrate the 6-month marker of UMS clothing!!!

We would like to send a HUGE thank you to Sean and Stefanie Montano, the owners of Stilo, for hosting us and supporting our cause! We appreciate each and every one of you Misfits, Much Love to all of you!

We have been busy answering our inboxes, shipping orders and planning new events as well as working up new designs and styles for the coming season. We absolutely cannot wait to bring all of our new ideas to life! Whether you’ve been with us all along or just joined, thank you for following along and stay tuned because we think your going to love where we are headed! Thank you all for an incredible 6 months! Here’s to many many more!

Steve Jobs, May He Rest In Peace

THE PRE$$ — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 04:52:16 +0000

Today the world has lost another revolutionary, another renaissance man. We want to express our sincere condolences for the family and friends of Steve Jobs. Apple will never be the same but much more importantly the world will never be the same. Your creative genius and ability to think outside the box inspired us as individuals, as a company and as a community. Here’s to being a crazy round peg in a world full of boring squares. You will be sorely missed but never forgotten.
Much Love,
Urban Misfit Society

Don’t forget to to share your thoughts, memories, and condolences to rememberingsteve@apple.com

A young Steve Jobs
