Since it’s launch in 2018, graphic t-shirt company OLD-AGE has offered a welcome antidote to all the relentlessly cheesy, Instagram-fuelled apparel lines that have thrived in recent years. In place of Love Island catchphrases and empty slogans, the label – created by a collective of London-based artists and creatives – counteract the #goodvibes #gratitude generation with an unapologetically angsty, apathetic approach.
Their latest and third collection, titled “Bored & Depressed”, includes designs with statements such as “Dress to Depress” and “Fake Fun”, drawing on a range of references from 90s music, to skate culture and modern art.
The collection is available online now, with ten per cent of all profits donated to Human Rights Watch – an international organisation dedicated to defending human rights around the world.
