Dave Roper announces September’s T shirt of the Month

This month’s winner of Dave Roper’s T shirt of the Month competition is a design by Ob1 Brand.

This is a brilliant white printed on a Fruit of the Loom Super Premium T using a print/flash/print method hand pulled through a 156 (62T) mesh screen. The ink used is Amex PF Flash White Extra plastisol. Brett Elesmore of Ob1 Brand said: “I really like this ink as it has a good consistency that is really easy to work with and a good opacity on dark garments. The tees were printed on a six-colour Riley Hopkins Jr press and cured with a BBC Little Buddy II tunnel dryer.”

The design came about as a way to raise money for the Micro and Anophthalmic Children’s Society as Mr Elesmore ran the London Marathon on behalf of the charity back in April.

He added: “Their logo is a bunch of balloons so I wanted to try and incorporate that while still having the design in keeping with my brand. I therefore designed an old traditional hot air balloon with elements of geometric patterns and dot work and decided all profits from the sales would go to MACS.

“I would like to thank Dave Roper for being such a good and friendly company to with and thank Dave in particular for all the advice, guidance and encouragement.”

Dave Roper added: “The most important reason why this T shirt is September’s winner is that all the profits go directly to the MACS. This is a charity which supports children born without eyes or with underdeveloped eyes.”
