How Do We Signal Each Other?
Posted by Bob Namar on
We humans interact with each other seemingly without obvious effort. Our sophisticated and nuanced social signals are part of this delicate and impactful communication. While these signals include speech and body gestures, they also include what we wear: our fashion – our tees. The items we choose wear send string signals to our friends, family and strangers alike. We use our tees (and other clothing items) to project the image of us or message we choose for that day and time. Don’t be confused: clothing and fashion, by definition, are not the same.

Many of them aren’t registered to vote yet At YESTERCOOL, we’ve released our newest collection. Our Get Out the Vote series leverages retro and vintage design elements to create modern messages that enable you to tell others that you are voting, and that they should, too.
