Guys,
My name is Sid from UK independent brand Retreat. I guess like you all here i am a massive fan of The beasties. ever since my cousin handed me down the cassette of Licensed to Ill back in approx 1988 when I was 13.
They influenced both myself, my wife and my friends when we were growing up.
Check Your Head was my generations SGT Peppers. No one did it like them.
I was utterly shocked when Adam passed away as I always just thought they would be around throughout my life, or until I was old and grey.
As much as I am a fan I never considered releasing a t-shirt design of the boys until approx 3 weeks before Adam passed away.
I created a subtle custom pocket t-shirt design featuring the inlay from Paul's Boutique. These haven't been completed yet as I began on focusing a tribut tee which I finally completed a few weeks back.
The "NEW YAUCH CITY" design has proved to be a huge success.
I decided I was going to donate all profits to both Milarepa and tibetfund.org which is based out of NYC
The idea was to print off 100 tees and to my amazement most of these have SOLD OUT on pre-orders alone yesterday.
I plan on re-printing another batch in a few weeks as this is for such a good cause I figured why not.
Please take a look at the design, they retail at £20 UK pounds
if you like it and want to support two amazing charities please email me at
