I like the tandom sequences.
Lovemarks August 1, 2007
Zoozoo2 becomes a lovemark.
A few years ago, Saatchi & Saatchi setup Lovemarks. A place to share those brands you love. According to Saatchi ‘Lovemarks transcend brands. They deliver beyond your expectations of great performance. Lovemarks reach your heart as well as your mind, creating an intimate, emotional connection that you just can’t live without.’
Simple put Lovemarks inspire.
A Lovemark can be a small, everyday product that embraces and infuses your life to make it just that little bit better. Equally, it could be a world-changing revelation for thousands.
Now we can’t claim to be world changing or inspiring but we do what we …

T-shirts have been around a long time March 11, 2007
Did you know that according to some the beginning of the T-shirt is credited to the navy. The US Navy that is, while other historians say it was The “swabs” in the British Royal Navy who wore them under their uniforms in World War I, some even suggest it was the French Army.
American soldiers liked the comfortable lightweight cotton undershirt compared to the wool uniforms American soldiers wore and the rest is history.

T-shirts are for rebels… May 17, 2006
Since way back in the 60’s t-shirts have been there on the front line. Whatever the argument, whatever the cause - politics, Vietnam, union rights, love & peace, punk, you name it, the rebel t-shirt was there. Today, some of the issues might have changed along with a president or two but t-shirts are still saying it loud and proud.
One of today’s big issues, as far as Zoozoo2 is concerned is the environment and fair trade. Some of us are even trying to change the very fabric of the rebel t-shirt.
No longer can we justify wearing traditionally produced t-shirts, …
300 million and rising April 5, 2006
Surfing has left its mark on the history of the t-shirt and fashion. The earliest examples of surfing t-shirts were no more than early marketing tools. Back in 1961 a Californian surfboard maker Floyd Smith is often credited as the first. Smith asked local surfers to bring their white t-shirts to his shop and he would screen print the company logo across it. Later that year t-shirts were made to advertise the Makaha International Surfing Championships.
Within a few years the landscape had changed completely with thousands of surf company t-shirts appearing. They quickly became “symbols of the casual …
What’s the story? March 29, 2006
Just been digging through my old t-shirts again for something to wear. I don’t know about you but every t-shirt I have ever worn seems to have a story to tell, a small piece of the past sealed within its very fabric. I ended up sitting there for ages remembering. It’s like looking at an old photo album.
Happy stories, about trips I had been on and people I had hung out with. Embarrassing stories and times I would much rather forget. Some literally have bits of the past still on them, rips, stains and marks that definitely remind me of …
