Grappin’ Money La Painthouse Shirt
A Jon Burgerman shirt without color is a rare shirt indeed. In fact, aside from 2007’s black on white On the Wall shirt, I’m hard-pressed to ID another completely monotone shirt in the artkive. Until now. Jon made this new all-over print “Grappin’ Money” shirt for La Painthouse, a division of the Paris-based The Dirty Cream. Definitely digging everything except the price, which is $65.25 USD before international shipping charges are applied. Ouch. If you’ve got the scratch, or maybe you’re located in France, check it out though. Cool shirt in S, M, L and XL. The La Painthouse line also features shirts by MCA, Reach and Shin Tanaka. FYI, entomology of “Grappin’”?
Burger Gear From Lazy Oaf
Were you wondering who made the burger sweatshirt (possibly called a “jumper” for our friends in the UK) Jon was wearing as he painted Bangalore in this AOL video? This bright yellow garment was lovingly crafted by the talented folks at London’s Lazy Oaf. It’s not a Burger Product, but it’s a burger product all the same.
Lazy Oaf is famous for it’s bright pop graphic T-shirts, reversible sweats and accessories collections. The company is driven by illustration, graphics, drawing, and fuelled by tea, hamburgers and Brian Blessed’s knarley foot. The Oaf’s have often contributed to print projects, exhibitions and events.
This East London based creative label was started by Gemma Shiel back in 2001 with hand screen printed tee’s and a market stall in East London, skip to the present and lazy Oaf is available in over 150 stockists worldwide. 2004 saw the opening of the lazy oaf store in Soho which houses all of the collections and further Oaf oddities sourced from Japan and the US.
Lazy Oaf products are designed in house by Gemma and the Lazy Oaf team from the Oaf HQ in Shoreditch, products range from their staple graphic tee’s to 80’s inspired bobble hats, greeting cards, jewellery and posters.
Everyone these days wants to dress like athletes and rappers. What about dressing like doodlers? They’re good role models, too. My only question: can I pull off bright yellow? You can get a unisex sweatshirt here, a girl’s sized sweatshirt here and a hat here. Rock!
Doodled RipCurl Jacket, Pants and Catalog
I noticed that one of the more popular search engine queries that leads people to Doodlesplatter is “RipCurl.” This is all due to the great Green Goon gear by Jon. Burgerplex just added the 2008 orange RipCurl jacket and pants to its online store. I’ve always thought this all-over doodle aesthetic worked brilliantly on these garments (and I’m typically a detractor from the “all-over print” look). Sorry shorties and skinnies, but the gear is available in size Large only. Even though I’m a distinct Medium myself, I’d buy this in a heartbeat if not for the fact that 1) I haven’t seen snow in 10 years and 2) I’m looking out the window to sunshine, birds chirping and probably high 60s. I have no idea what a lot of the following means, although “goggle pocket” and “stink sack” sure do sound fun. If you’re genteel, like me, you may prefer the company of the 105-page Mountainwear Winter 2008-2009 catalog “smothered” in doodles by Jon instead. The catalog comes signed for £15. Tech specs on the winterwear are:

Artoyz ATZ Hoodie and T-Shirt
France’s Artoyz ATZ clothing imprint has a new men’s hoodie and t-shirt with art by Jon. The designs and quality on these are great. The only sticking point is the price: 115 Euros for the hoodie (~ $159 USD) and 45 Euros for the t-shirt (~ $62 USD).
Blue Raspberry Hoodie For Kids
The point of this project is to show that Jon’s art adorns all surfaces and products, and this one goes out to all the tater tots and small fries out there. The Burgerman Sweets Blue Raspberry Hoodie for Kids from Kidrobot showcases some of Jon’s favorite edibles on a 100% French Terry cotton sweatshirt. The hoodie features heavy duty zippers, a cuff expansions gusset and an interior toy pocket perfect for stashing a Series 4 Fatty Boom-Boom Dunny on which the design was based. This item was originally priced at $75 and has recently been slashed to $29.95. Still in stock in S, M and L, but probably not for long…
Greengoon Rip Curl European Collection
Jon designed a T-shirt, hoodie, cap, backpack, surfboard, snowboard and ski, surf and snowgear for Rip Curl Europe. All of the pieces in his summer and winter collections were made out of organic and recycled materials and have a unique Burgerman aesthetic plus a personal hangtag sticker with the Greengoon on it. Greengoon is Jon’s imaginary green friend that eats worms and recycles: “a classic Jon Burgerman character that fits perfectly in the Rip Curl Planet framework.” This gear is so awesome, it almost makes me want to be sporty. Here are tons of photos of the clothes, wall-doodling, the Greengoon and a video. Check it all out to get the full range of the range. If you stare long enough, you might have a Magic Eye experience.
Size? Clothing Collaboration
Jon released a range of clothing and with UK premium sneaker chain Size?. In this series, Size? got together with artists to produce limited edition products. Jon’s is the first collaboration, and it consists of a t-shirt, sweatshirt (jumper), reversible hoodie, belt and matching umbrella covered in orange doodles on black fabric. Everything in the collection are limited to 300 pieces worldwide. I have the sweatshirt, and it rules! I wonder how geeky it would be to deck out in the full range of coordinate gear? It’s tempting…
You can get Jon’s pieces in the Size? online store, through Jon’s webshop (check availability, most items are sold out) and Size? stores in Dublin, Glasgow, Birmingham, London, Nottingham, Sheffield, Leeds, Liverpool, Cardiff and Brighton.
Desigual Longsleeve Shirt
Here’s an unusual shirt from Jon. In collaboration with Barcelona-based label Desigual, Jon designed this light, slinky green shirt. Originally priced at UK £30 / Non-UK £35.
Love Rabby
Jon did a bunch of characters and designs for Japanese clothing brand, Love Rabby in 2006. Here are a few of the fashions and community graphics.
Graniph Shirt
Here’s an old gem dug up by Amir. Per Jon, what this is is an “old old old image from 2003, i think but the shirt came out later.” We’re going with 2006 as a guess here. The shirt was made for Japan’s Graniph, a site with so many great shirts and so much great Engrish. But alas, this one is long gone.
