Anyone who is a sucker for anything with a good story behind it will love these custom tee shirts from UK company Half a Conversation.
Giving a fashionable twist to the PostSecret concept, customers send in their story and what they want their shirt to say to Half a Conversation, who then chooses the best, prints them up typewriter-style, and sells them to whoever wants one.
Many more shirts can be viewed on the Half a Conversation website. Click on the photos to read the background stories behind the tees. Be warned, though: Once you start clicking on background stories it’s very hard to stop reading them!
