The 'Sharp Shirter' Etsy shop run by Dan Lachman has the perfect balance of fun and quirky. The fascinating creature tees are created in a unisex design so everyone can get in on the fun. Whether punching a shark or bear is your thing, these t-shirts offer a variety of whacky designs that are a graphic designer's dream.
Founded in 2004, Sharp Shirter was created by Dan Lachman, a video-game lover who took his love of graphics to screening shirts rather than the small screen games. His expansive collection has a sea-creature focus that is merged with a sense of triumph as humans are pictured overcoming the ferocious beasts. The G.I. Joe Kitty inspiration plays on the intense cat obsession on the web while adding some hilarious (and adorable) militantly graphic appeal.
