What better way to celebrate Jersey Trash’s mission of individuality than with a unique, proud, and unapologetic community of equal rights supporters and fighters? On Sunday, JTC went to Philly Pride to support the opening act, Daniel Gray’s Return of the Club Kids Tour.

Unsure of the response, we  began handing out stickers, describing our hopes & dreams, informing the audience that we handmade each and every one of the shirts on the performers.

Foil Designs debut by JTC

 Unlike the majority of screen printers, we do each and every color and layer of design by hand – no pivotal armed machinery or micro-registration involved.  Sure, it takes longer, but when it’s done, it’s something we take great pride in!

There’s no inside joke and no professional screen printer pumping out mass produced designs. What there is at Jersey Trash Clothing is a dream fueled by an ample amount of ambition and belief.  

Needless to say, we were welcomed on Sunday! 

We had a great time and met some wonderful entrepreneurs and artists with the same passion – to spread an idea that they believe in with all of their heart and if a customer senses that passion, then it was all worth it!

Jersey Trash Clothing was fortunate enough to have met an impressive band, April May.  You’ll be floored by this young talented group of musicians.  Take a listen to their music at www.myspace.com/aprilmaynj.  There may be some huge projects and outstanding opportunities with these Sarah, Anthony, Joe, Zeth, and Rob in the future!  THANKS GUYS!!!

Many new designs were sneak peeked and the response was out of this world!

Special Thanks to Lisa, Carol, Bob, Cheryl, Robben, and the cute little girl who sported Jersey Dirty all day long!

We’ve been approached to do two more events the weekend of June 12-14th, as well as two excellent business ventures that are sure to spread the word of JTC even further!!! 

TX for everything, Guys!

Memorial Day Weekend is over, but Summer has just begun!  Jersey Trash Clothing, LLP is a proud supporter of the Williamstown High School 1st Annual Telethon to fund the Class of 2009 Project Graduation. 

The friends and families of Williamstown High School students, along with Bob Smith, will be orchestrating a lively event Saturday, May 30th, with musicians, The Philadelphia Wings Dance Team, the Philly Phanatic, Vendors (like Jersey Trash), and more! Project Graduation is a safe alternative to the typical “party-hopping” that occurs the night of Commencement.  To avoid any incidences that night, schools host a variety of activities and games for the graduates.  The telethon will help raise the remainder of the money needed to cover these expenses.  To learn more about how you can help, or if you’re looking for something different to do, visit www.whsprojectgraduation.blogspot.com

EXCITING NEWS!

We’ve has also been invited to represent Jersey Trash on Sunday, June 14th, at Penns Landing on the Philadelphia Waterfront!  We’ve been fortunate enough to work with Daniel Gray, a musician hailing from New Orleans.

Jersey Trash Clothing will be outfitting his dancers, as well as Daniel, himself!  Check him out at www.danielgrayworld.com  The event includes stage entertainment, a dance area, family zone, pet zone, health area, and a variety of food and beverages. There is a $10 admission.  Over 90 different organizations will be networking with over 40 different merchants selling. 

Keep your eyes peeled for more dates and appearances throughout the Tri-State area this summer.  We hope you can join us as often as possible!

Here at Jersey Trash Clothing we are real specific on the things we do and how it impacts the world around us.  It amazes us that people are so blinded by their actions that it will be the direct down fall of our society.. and what is that?  Not giving a damn about the planet or the people around them.  It’s simple, recycle, support local farmers and produce shops. When you see someone throw trash out the window, you kick their ass! When you see some one disrespect another, you kick their ass!

This bring us to the Swine ’09 t-shirt featured on our site. The reason we made this shirt is to make people aware that other living things on this planet are not being treated well.  So, where did the Swine Flu come from? Media and the Government will tell you one thing, but Jersey Trash will tell you the real truth. In the case of the pig, they are kept in tight quarters, eating their and other pig feces with no room to move or sleep.  Some of these slaughter houses/pig farms are pumping them with antibiotics in turn making their own natural immune system weak and susceptible to disease. By eating their own feces and not being free to roam open land… disease is inevitable. Nature is acting out on us and we deserve every bit of it!

In the movie The Day The Earth Stood Still, Keanu Reeves comes to earth as an Alien.  His sole purpose is to analyze the impact humans have on the world. He realizes that humans are destroying the world and says, “We can not risk the planet for the sake of one organism.” (meaning humans).  That’s what we are,  an organism amongst other organisms that are just as important  to the earth as we are. 

“If the world dies, we die!”

This shirt is no longer available through the site… If you want it that bad we have the middle finger Swine 09 and the No middle finger Swine 09. You can e-mail us at jerseytrashclothing@gmail.com

So, it’s been about Two weeks that we’ve been up and running.  Really, 6 months of hands-on labor and a 5-year dream materialized!  

We acquired an awesome opportunity to create the shirts used for Monmouth University’s 14th Annual Track & Field Season Opener.   First & Second place winners of each event received shirts.  Teams from Rutgers, Quinnipiac, Fordham, Stony Brook, St. Francis (NY) and NJIT came to compete and got a taste of Jersey Trash Clothing. 

We were also given the great pleasure of outfitting Breast Cancer Awareness supporters with “Think Pink” Tees.  Our hard work paid off and the shirts looked great!  It was quite rewarding to see athletes and spectators alike sporting something we made with our own hands, not to mention the fact that proceeds benefited Breast Cancer Research.  It’s always a good feeling to be part of giving back! 

                                                                                                                                                                Look for us soon as we’ll be providing apparel for Dane Miller’s Www.GarageStrength.com with a newly created design!

With years of dreaming and talking, we have finally made a thought into a reality. Jersey Trash Clothing was developed in 2004, but not until now you get to experience what our minds and souls have always wanted to do. We have some very talented people who have contributed many hours of their time in order for this business to take flight.

Our web design and all the technical stuff was taken on by Josh Ma, a very gifted soul. Without his knowledge, Jersey Trash Clothing would not be where it is today. Also contributing his skills on the graphics of the site is Andrew Shum who is currently attending MIT. On the business end Jimmy M. has contributed as much as us and is currently Jersey Trash Clothing’s Accountant/consultant.  Another face that played a big part in the structure of the business was 2x Olympic Silver Medalist Adam Nelson! One of the nicest guys on the planet!

YEAH! ADAM NELSON! Of course without the support of our family and friends, Jersey Trash Clothing would not be.  In the next week there will be a post on how our family influenced this clothing line and why it connects all of us as one!
