Thrillist MiamiMiami is rife with drama, from cruel men smuggling people in shipping containers, to even crueler men smuggling rhinestones on their shirts. Wear some artful comic relief, with gear from Miami's own Funky Urban.
Founded by an Ecuadorian expat who spent his teen years printing tourist tees on the Galapagos Islands, Funky's irreverent new t-shirt lines pair eye-catching artwork with smartass phrases that take the stuffing out of the city you love to sweat in. Gritty crew neck collabs with street artist Eduardo Sarmiento include the forthcoming "I Like It On Top" (featuring a bunk bed -- what else?), plus amusing creatures like an angry squirrel yelling, "Get off my nuts right now!", and a whale with a knife in its head pleading, "Save the whales, but first have sex with a sensitive guy in a 'save the whales' t-shirt". Meanwhile, the "Loungewear" collection offers daring V-necks (and double-daring sleeveless action) like "Who The F*** Is D&G?", "Try Me" (w/ coiled cobra), and "Sperm Donor" (Moby Dick across your chest -- get used to saying "sometimes a whale is just a whale.")
Beyond tees, FU offers slick knitted-cotton track jackets, trucker hats, visors, flip-flops, ludicrous shutter-shades and, soon, wise-cracking low-cut briefs -- introducing drama to your package as they cruelly smuggle your family jewels.
They're only $24, but you'd gladly drop that just for a glimpse of the girl modeling the "beach bum" bikini at FunkyUrban.net
