Shiroi Neko – What’s the deal?

Posted by the dood on Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

Shiroi Neko has only been around for about a year as far as I know, but its possible that they have been around for 30 years too, as their website says (see the 1978 copyright). Anyway.. that is not the real purpose of this post, but what I’m posting about is the ripping off of other people’s designs.

An interesting site is You Thought We Wouldn’t Notice, who has a post regarding Shiroi Neko’s blatant ripoff of several of Rebel8‘s T-shirt designs.

Like some of the posters, I do have to say that I like the Shiroi Neko stuff better, but… blatantly stealing someone else’s designs if theft! And on their website they go about how you can feel good wearing their t-shirts because of all the good Karma because they use such great materials and only pay adult Thais to handmake the t-shirts under good conditions. Blah Blah Blah.

Nice T-shirts though.
