A New Kind of Bracket Racing

The BSAA (Blipshift Apparel Administration) needs your help! There are only 4 coveted slots left on our team of 25+ shirts getting a rebound in The Apex Everything Sale at the end of the month, and it's up to you to vote for who stays and who goes.

Every weekday from now until March 22, we'll be laying up a new pair of potential tees, for a total of 12 rounds. The images for each design represent the final jersey they'd don in the sale, so it's up to you to vote for what makes the cut and what has to go back to tryouts. So grab those clipboards and put on your best Dad hat, it's time to play coach!

And Across The Line!

Thanks to all the adrenaline-fueled idea and design submitters who laid it all on the racing line for the Open 24 Hours Tee Design Contest! The driving was close, where it was ultimately "All Night Long" that pulled ahead and took the podium.

Congra-tee-lations to Chris Holewski, who'll be driving home with a day of racing school thanks to partnership with the fellow apexers at Skip Barber Racing School and Racer Magazine. Look for the design to hit shirt shelves on March 28.

Better save some champagne for Markus Lewtschuk and Simon Gutkovich too, whose works scored them runner-up status! They swiped some sweet BS credit, and their designs may be made into a full-fledged tee in the future.

 

Extra Ways to Apex Everything

No, we're not talking about those elfish triangles, 70's soul groups, or three-barrel carburetors. We're talking about the Next Level Tri-Blend tee, now available as an option across all of our designs!

So what's the deal? These super-soft hipster-friendly tees are made from 50% polyester, 25% cotton, and 25% rayon, with a subtle weave pattern similar to our heather grey tee. Color options are somewhat different than the Fitted and Heavy Duty options, so be sure to check the slice at the bottom of a design page to see how it compares.

Sizing is almost identical to that of the Fitted style, but with a bit more of a "drape" and stretch to the fabric to show off those gains at the tuning shop.

Fully Charged Into The Future

Thanks to all who submitted their amped-up ideas and designs to the Charge Into The Future Tee Design Contest in partnership with Volvo! It was a boxy grid full of awesome concepts to choose from, but congrats go out to Ian McLaughlin whose line-drawing lineup of iconic wagons became the "Safe at Any Speed" design you see here. That means he snags a jam-packed trip to Sweden in the New Year!

Save some applause for Chris Suan and Sean Zeeck too, whose designs had some current of their own, landing them spots as runners up. That means they scored some fine BS credit, but the designs may made into a Swede shirt at a later date!

 

California Fire Fundraiser Results

The Smoking Tire knows great California driving roads the same way ol' Smokey knows wildfires. The recent blazes have left an immense impact on the state and the state of its automotive landscape, but thanks to your support of the Carlifornia Dreamin' shirt design in collaboration with TST, we've raised almost $19,000 for charity!

All proceeds will be going to the California Fire Foundation to help support firefighters and their communities via an array of survivor and victim assistance projects in addition to community initiatives like fire education programs.

The holidays can be full of unknowns. Are flights going to leave you stranded? Is Uncle Herb going to talk exclusively about his girlfriend? Is the heater blower going to bust again? We want the hol-tee-days to be more certain though, so you know exactly when your apexmas gifts will get across the pine. In addition to the chart above, the following list applies to US Domestic orders only and will be updated daily to reflect new designs.
