  • Griggiteesaid 125 weeks ago

    I dig it.
  • simplyspedsaid 125 weeks ago

    Nice except when you really look at it, it doesn't look much like Colbert.
  • waccodemonsaid 125 weeks ago

    meow, i like john stewart more
  • TurnThePaigesaid 125 weeks ago

    but...after reading a tad bit about you i am okay.
  • magnus920@gmail.comsaid 125 weeks ago

    funny, as usual
  • WinterArtworksaid 125 weeks ago

    as a Colbert fan I love the concept but he should have been in Washington's spot and the execution could have been better

    PS cutout effect FTW!
  • rileypersaid 125 weeks ago

    do any of the proceeds go to the "Colbert Nation/US Speedskating Donation"
  • OverlordSporksaid 125 weeks ago

    I lol'd at this, this is great! I love Colbert
  • rebecajeansaid 125 weeks ago

    I love the concept, I just wish the actual art was a bit better, more defined, because then I'd totally have no qualms about dishing out money for this shirt. Unfortunately, also due to the fact that I bought yesterday's shirt, I'm going to have to pass :( Nice effort, though.
  • SteelWoolysaid 125 weeks ago

    Yea,... I was just thinking it could have been a more defined shirt. But, I guess my comment is not that defined either - touche'

    Isn't Colbert just John Stewart's witty assistant? :)
  • fiscalsaid 125 weeks ago

    The parted hair and raised eyebrow can't be mistaken. I knew it was Colbert right away! Love it, buying one!
  • JSWEENEYsaid 125 weeks ago

    Guess it's just me, but I thought it was Bruce Campbell until I read the title. I would have bought it if it had been.

    Colbert plays a spoof of a Bill O'Reiley-esque character, and spoofing a type of Fox News forum. John Stewart isn't in character in his show.

    I take back my previous comment about this being un-mistakeable. This could definitely pass for Bruce Campbell on the cover art of Army of Darkness
  • daveconreysaid 125 weeks ago

    Not stoked on the execution here. Looks like a Live Trace quickie job.
  • CaptinMalsaid 125 weeks ago

    haha funny but a no go for me...
  • lyrn2100said 125 weeks ago

    I like her Stuff, though I am not a Colbert Fan. I'd go for the Eyes!
  • speedboat jonessaid 125 weeks ago

    It doesn't really look like Colbert.
  • snarkygalsaid 125 weeks ago

    funny, but I think it would be better suited on colbertnation.com
  • malixsaid 125 weeks ago

    i think the only problem is that hes missing his glasses but besides that cool design. i love the jellyfish side art!!!
  • stockmarketsaid 125 weeks ago

    Oddly, I think I would like this t-shirt more if it didn't have Colbert's face on it. Not to say I don't like him, I just think the original design (original four presidents) would better suit me.
  • amycreatessaid 125 weeks ago

    Awesome. A major wag o' the tail, tip o' the hat to you Caitlin!

    Someone send this link to Colbert!!! You know he needs 1 of these shirts for every day of the week.
  • queso6p4said 125 weeks ago

    Done and done.
  • wondermilksaid 125 weeks ago

    Beside the fact that Colbert looks nothing like himself, the lack of definition (though obv a style choice) is what makes me not want this shirt. Good effort, though
  • digital-newsaid 125 weeks ago

    Ironic that my dad got his book "I'm an American (And you can too!)" for christmas, and then I see this shirt. :S he's everywhere! anyway, not really digging the shirt, however, i love the side art. (:
  • yyzbeesaid 125 weeks ago

    Hey, I've been out of the loop for a while! Where are the archives???????
  • spamuellasaid 125 weeks ago

    hello boob graphic
  • superchicosaid 125 weeks ago

    I haven't said this in a long time, but instant buy!! colbertnation.com shirts are American Apparel rubbish... it'll be great to finally have a decent-quality Colbert shirt.
  • awDipsaid 125 weeks ago

    Jellyfish coming out of the jar side art is pretty sweetastic.
  • Frickinawesomesaid 125 weeks ago

    haha, fun stuff, would maybe have liked it better to have Colbert, Jon Stewart, Bill Maher and maybe David Cross or some other amazingly prolific political truth-spiller as the four heads.

    Bruce Campbell lives 20 minutes from me. Haha. Oh the irony.

    since when was American Apparel bad? sorry to detract from the shirt, but I wasn't aware that AA was "rubbish"...

  • michiganice91said 125 weeks ago

    side art is great
  • berettasaid 125 weeks ago

    It's funny but I think the timing for a design like this is off. Would have been more relevant to come out during campaign time.
  • bkentsaid 125 weeks ago

    I would love this shirt, I just don't think it resembles Stephen Colbert that much...
  • Reverend Hellgoodsaid 125 weeks ago

    Who picks the designs here? I've been watching this site for 5 months, and only liked one shirt enough to buy it. This isn't a slam against the artists. A lot of these designs are great, they just don't make good shirts. Perhaps Tee Fury could send out surveys to members to find out what people like. I'm just saying.
  • Olechkasaid 125 weeks ago

    I love it, and recognized him right away! The smirk on his face is my fave part :)

    I think that what people "like" is very different from what "people will buy." I doubt that TeeFury would consistently print shirts that didn't sell well.
  • whatevsaid 125 weeks ago

    lol, nice utada design.

    They don't consistently print shirts that don't sell well. They put up one design a day and print up the amount that's ordered.

    I am aware of that, and think you misunderstood my point. I was saying that even though a design may get a lot of positive comments, it doesn't mean that it will sell a lot of shirts, as opposed to a design about which people complain (ex. pop-culture) that sells a ton. If I were running a business, my main priority would be to sell what sells well.
  • Reverend Hellgoodsaid 125 weeks ago

    Gotcha! As a consumer my main priority is to buy things that appeal to me. I see what you're saying, though.
  • hunt4scsaid 125 weeks ago

    I only vote for candidates with class...
  • Jnurenosaid 125 weeks ago

    Photoshop is to Twirl Tool as Illustrator is to Live Trace.
  • gigiassaid 125 weeks ago

    Love the idea, but like everyone else is saying it looks quickly done. Also, no glasses? That probably would help people recognize it's Colbert right off the bat.
    Also I spy an Utada song design in the sideart ♥

  • twilshiresaid 125 weeks ago

    I don't like it, Caitlin. But I don't know squat except how I feel and what I think when I look at something. However, I really like the 1st of the side art. The one with the eyes. Great job! Congrats on this printing and here's wishing you a healthy, safe and fulfilling 2010.

    You're just one person though, so that you've only liked one shirt enough to buy it in 5 months doesn't mean all that much in the grand scheme of things. That isn't a slam, just saying.

    Ha.
    Yes.
  • Hatter518said 125 weeks ago

    The idea is great but the art seems...i dunno, there is just something wrong with the final product. I'm not sure what it is though...the colbert looks too tight to the rest of the faces maybe?
  • CherryDarlingsaid 125 weeks ago

    If I saw somebody wearing this shirt, I would ask them why they had a shirt of Bruce Campbell's head on a national monument. And I would have liked it better if it was Bruce. But the fact that it is Stephen Colbert and it looks nothing like him (other than that one eyebrow), makes it entirely unappealing to me.
    The side art is great, but why this? It seems to lack time and effort in comparison.
  • skylyresaid 125 weeks ago

    This is cool but I'm actually much more in love with your other work! Please do put those images on shirts?

    And on another note I just have to add my $0.03 on the "boob graphic" issue. Where else is the image supposed to go? Majority of images look good across the chest. Is not putting an image there somehow going to make people stop staring at yer boobage? Nope. Jus sayin.
  • sndwavsaid 125 weeks ago

    Too American, I have no idea who Colbert is.
    Don't forget you're an international site, Teefury :)
  • splatalie37said 125 weeks ago

    love it. definitely considering a purchase.
  • InTheSkysaid 125 weeks ago

    but the design is nice
  • benjyhesaid 125 weeks ago

    No archives?! I was on vacation... and I couldn't check... I'm so sorry TeeFury... I promise it'll never happen again. I'll get one of those netbooks from Woot and take it wherever I go... please please just let me see what I missed :(
  • 308NATOsaid 125 weeks ago

    If the 5th head was Boba Fett...$$$ ...Jus Sayin!!!
  • 308NATOsaid 125 weeks ago

    P.S. Boba is so international….Please!!!!

    If you go on their facebook page, you can see all the pictures of the past shirts on there.
  • flamingonutsaid 125 weeks ago

    A quick glance and it's Colbert. A longer and it's Campbell. Regardless, I'm in for 1.

  • monkeyinjacketsaid 125 weeks ago

    this could of been alot better
  • omnithropesaid 125 weeks ago

    I thought it was JR Bob Dobbs without a pipe. I'd have bought it if it were Bob. =)
  • disembodied headsaid 125 weeks ago

    I like the idea behind it but the design looks like it was done by an amateur. think i'll pass on this one
  • swissarmysharksaid 125 weeks ago

    no glasses?
  • jedibamfsaid 125 weeks ago

    Hey all, thanks for the comments good and bad.

    I appreciate those of you who have purchased!

    Maybe sometime in the future the curators will choose one of my side art panels for printing. ;) ;) nudge nudge

    That would be true if I was the only person who posted a neutral or negative opinion about some of the design choices. This whole TeeFury concept is a cool thing. I'd just like to see a more democratic approach be applied toward what designs get choosen. I'm sure there are some people who would agree with me. Maybe I'm wrong.

    I'm with Rev on this. I'm in the same boat, only purchased maybe two or three tees, and I've followed this site for a year, at least.
