TEES AND TATS

Want a tattoo without the commitment? Too bad, it ain’t gonna happen.

But do you want the style of a tattoo on an incredibly soft tee? Then you’re in luck. ‘Tees and Tats’ is a collection of limited edition t-shirts with graphics designed by Marco Serio. Coming to the Lower East Side by way of Lisbon, Portugal Marco Serio has earned a reputation as one of the world’s leading Japanese-style tattoo artists.

His designs have now found a new canvas in the form of 100% combed ringspun cotton instead of epidermis. The collection includes seven limited edition t-shirts all numbered 1-700.

As an added benefit a percentage of all sales go to Artworks: The Naomi Cohain Foundation, which provides children and young adults suffering from chronic and life-threatening diseases, access to creative and performing arts programs. Artworks encourages using the creative process to promote healing, personal development and self-expression.

And who doesn’t want to be committed to that.
