PURVEYORS OF POLY-COTTON

Shirts With Balls launched in late 2002 with the goal of empowering people’s chests with the craziest, most unique, independent, and over-the-top t-shirt designs to be found. The past three years have been wild and rocky, full of thrilling highs and testing lows.

After a recent lull while we focused on our thriving eBay vintage shirt sales, Shirts With Balls has leapt back into the fray with our new September 11 Stylish Thoughtcrime Series. We no longer believe the official story after nearly four years of unquestioning obedience to Big Brother—but that doesn’t mean we have to wear stiff white cotton shirts with crappy iron-ons that say "9/11 Was a Lie"!

We are taking back that virtually neutered phrase "promoting awareness" from the liberal twenty-something do-gooders and are injecting it with a new relevant vitality. Worrying about otters and plastic bottles is a distraction when there may be elements within or above our government who are able to manipulate even the most sophisticated among us like clay. The thought is at once horrifying and seemingly inconceivable, but our gut tells us that 9/11 truth renders it very possible and we ignore it at our own peril.

WE PREFER VAN HALEN’S 1984

The 9/11 shirts we saw out there weren’t stylish for one, and saying something like "Bush Lied", "No War for Oil", or "9/11 Was an Inside Job" really doesn’t engage anyone who doesn’t already agree with you. They’re beyond cliché—you might as well ask a lamppost on a date.

We don’t know who exactly orchestrated what went down on 9/11 or why. But we’re sure it wasn’t nearly as simple as the story the government (Republicans and Democrats) and media have repeated ceaselessly. (If you get caught up on Bush you’re falling into a trap.) We hope these shirts can spark a new thought process in people and encourage them to journey through the endless 9/11 conspiracy information available online. Be skeptical and use a fine-tooted comb!

If pursuing the truth is a thoughtcrime then let us as at least look cool while doing it. Because remember:
