Butter Goods T-Shirts

Butter Goods T-Shirts & Tees

Butter Goods, founded in 2008 by Perth natives Garth Mariano and Matt Evans, has built its reputation on graphic t-shirts that blend '90s nostalgia with contemporary street sensibilities. The Australian brand's approach to tee design demonstrates their distinctive curatorial eye—pulling inspiration from jazz record sleeves, vintage sportswear catalogs, and the golden era of skateboarding video aesthetics.

Their t-shirt program forms the backbone of each seasonal collection, featuring heavyweight cotton construction, relaxed fits, and meticulously executed screen-printing techniques. Butter's graphics range from subtle logo placements to full-chest artwork that references everything from forgotten advertising campaigns to abstract cultural ephemera, creating pieces that reward those who recognize the references without alienating those who simply appreciate the execution.

Unlike brands chasing fleeting trends, Butter Goods t-shirts maintain a consistent design language and quality standard that has earned them global recognition. Each release balances respect for skateboarding's visual heritage with enough contemporary twists to avoid feeling derivative—creating garments that function as both wearable art pieces and daily staples for those who appreciate substance behind their style.
