Earth Crisis Holy Grail

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 05/15/2012

In my close to a year of writing for this site, this is the second time I’ve come across the rarest Earth Crisis shirt in the band’s history. Sure, mammal3 isn’t nearly in as great of shape as the last one we saw but it’s still a rare piece of merch that took me personally over 10 years to track down. It was definitely weird to scratch that off my Want list and then to say “now what?”. To read more about the history of this, click here. Well this one is in pretty shape minus some bleach stains…give it a good home and wear it next time you prepare for All Out War.

Cabal 315 Style

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 05/11/2012

If you were straight edge in the 90s, there was a good chance you owned at least one Cabal tee. jmmckaig happens to own most of them since he was one of the dudes who was associated with the company. While many of the designs may seem dated now, these were THE hot item back then. They really loved Star Wars and I can sympathize with that. Cabal came back a few years ago with a couple of designs that made for specific shows as well as for the Another Victim Japan tour but all has been quiet since…Guav, any news?

Earth Crisis Blowout

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 05/10/2012

If you’re gonna collect old Earth Crisis tees, jmmckaig is the right place to start. Everything he has is original and many are unworn and unwashed. Here’s a few of the highlights:

One off design for the release of Gomorrah’s Season Ends

Summer 1994 tour, later reprinted by Victory without the tour dates

Can’t remember if this was sold at the Gomorrah’s record release or if it was on that tour but it’s from that time period. It was later reprinted without the date on the back as well the Cabal logo

Finally a European tour tee featuring the famous crossed wrenches logo.

McKaig has more ExC designs up for check it out.

Prepare For All Out War

bullscmr23carson has both a recent tee and crewneck from Earth Crisis. The All Out War design is actually the 3rd take on the classic design. The second was Victory’s repress of the original release by Conviction Records. The shirt is on like an ice-gray, not really an athletic gray. The band screened and sold these in roughly 2008 or 2009…I can’t remember if I got this through the band’s mailorder or if I got it when I saw them on the Firestorm fest tour. The crewneck was also roughly about the same time…

Cabal 315

Guav (and DJ?) printed this basketball jersey up for United Blood 2010 as well as another take on an old design. btlmg says they were limited to 24 and I’m pretty sure that’s right but I can’t remember. I have this and I made Guav set one aside for me since I couldn’t go. Guav, is that number accurate? There were rumblings that they were going to start printing more designs but I haven’t heard anything. I know they did a design for Forfeit a while back as well as the Another Victim Japanese show designs but that’s all I know of. Anyway, this jersey is a take on their classic design from the 90s. My only gripe is this wasn’t printed on a Champion jersey for maximum 90s goodness. Great look

The Holy Grail of Earth Crisis tshirt collecting. confinedrecords is selling the rarest ExC shirt in existence. This was limited to roughly 24 and sold by Guav (happy belated birthday) at a show in New Jersey. This is only the third one I’ve ever seen including my own and it looks like it’s in great shape for its age minus the bleach stain. If you dig the early ExC catalog, then this is worth your time.

Judge Storming Through 1990 shirt

By Casali | Published 02/09/2011

Well look at this little gem being sold by xbestoneyetx on behalf of Porter from Floorpunch. Check the description.

“Used Judge Storming Through 1990 shirt size XL on Russell Athletic tag. Shirt comes from Porter from Floorpunch as I am selling a bunch of his collection over the next few weeks. If this shirt wasn’t an XL i would have to keep this for myself, but I can’t fit into it. Porter told me he bought the shirt at the Where it went Video shoot at City Gardens in Trenton, NJ show in 1990. “

I like this one WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than the cheesy 3D west coast weekend shirt. Also I will give 100 bonus points to everyone if Guav can come up with a flyer he drew for this one.

(Earth Crisis) Straight Jacket Mosh!

By b. murphy | Published 09/18/2010

This shirt comes to us courtesy of @guav. He noticed an awfully strange title, and we’re inclined to agree. Oh kevedynamite how did you come up with “EARTH CRISIS STRAIGHT JACKET” for this basketball jersey? You so crazy! It’s funny because he continues this description in the auction text. It’s not like it was a typo or a mistake, he keeps the party going with “EARTH CRISIS STRAIGHT EDGE XXX STRAIGHT JACKET!!!” I just don’t get it. Interesting aztec vibe from what I can only assume is a basketball jersey from 99. Anyone know what the 1231 reference is? Perhaps a basketball jersey from that New Years Eve show in Syracuse. That would make sense. I’m assuming it has nothing to do with a Taxation Code …

Thanks @guav, this one was worth a laugh.

Side note. I was hanging out with Casali last night, and he kept pronouncing Buske’s name as Boo-Ski. I don’t recall every meeting Buske in person, but I’m fairly certain it’s pronounced Bus-key. Can someone give us a pronunciation guide on this one?

WTF? JNCO Straight Edge

By b. murphy | Published 08/07/2010

I’m hoping that @Guav or @Buske have some information on these shoes from toashessaysso because they ARE BLOWING MY FUCKING MIND. “Hardline approved!”

I know JNCOs were the denim of choice for vegan straight edge warriors in the mid 90s, but I didn’t realize that the JNCO company realized this too. Seriously, the hang tag is blowing my mind. Chip or Justin, you got any info on these?? I may just pick these up for the novelty of having them. Such a weird piece of merch … 1997, yo.

Fanzinesssssss

By jbil | Published 07/31/2010

A slew of fanzine from joesm00th.
First up is a mini lot that contains a copy of TTD loyal reader Guav’s zine “Conviction”. The rest of the zines in the lot look like they could be pretty cool too. You can probably scoop this up for cheapy.

maybe this is your shit? “more old-school pride than you can shake an X at, and the usual straight edge anger X”"

and last but not leas Common Sense #1. Love that NFAA logo
