Add a comment By Rebecca

This month on Who's Wearing What, we shine a spotlight on one of our newest suppliers – Out Of Print!

About Out Of Print

Out of Print is a one of a kind type of company. They celebrate the world’s great stories through fashion, with T-Shirts, Socks, Bags and Jewellery featuring iconic and often out of print book covers. Some are classics, some are just curious enough to make great t-shirts, but all are striking works of art.

They work closely with artists, authors and publishers to license the content that ends up in their collections and each product is treated to feel soft and worn like a well-read book.

In addition to spreading the joy of reading through our tees and accessories, Out Of Print are one of a growing number of socially conscious companies. They acknowledge that many parts of the world don’t have access to books at all and are working to change that. For each product sold, one book is donated to a community in need through their partner Books For Africa.

The World of Ice and Fire has just arrived!

Add a comment By Michael

We were just winding down for the day yesterday when our shipment of The World of Ice and Fire arrived! This awesome book deserves a proper look so we took some shots showing the gorgeous content George R.R. Martin has provided.

The World of Ice and Fire is essentially a history of Westeros and beyond; the abundance of work previously existed only in George R.R. Martin's own notes. For the first time we can have a real look at the world supporting everyone's fa­vourite fantasy saga. Each segment is illustrated with stunning artwork from some of the most noted fantasy artists.

This is truly not to be missed and would be the perfect gift for fans of the novels or TV series. Jump over to The World of Ice and Fire page to see more!

Three words for you. Treat. Yo. Self.

On the 13th of October, 2011, Tom and Donna from Parks and Recreation brought us the day to beat all other days. Once a year they spend the entire day treating themselves – there are no excuses not to buy anything that you desire.

At Mighty Ape we revel in bringing you the guilty pleasure items that you can't get from just anywhere. A few of the Gorilla's have put our heads together and provided you with a list of items you may not have bought yet as it just wasn't practical, you didn't want to spend the money or you couldn't find any logical use for. We have one answer to that today – Treat Yo Self.

On this day 46 years ago, the Night of The Living Dead was first released in theaters across the USA.
