This week on T-Shirt Tuesday, we’re introducing some truly different t-shirts.  Shikisai Alternative T-shirts add a new dimension to the graphic tee by incorporating functional, interactive elements.  That sneaker tee on the left has laces you can actually tie, untie.  The mini-blinds shirt on the right can be pulled up by the attached cord.  The Shikisai Alternative line includes 10 t-shirts, each with some sort of added dimension on their graphics.  A faucet graphic features sewn satin waves like water flowing along the shirt.  A bathtub stop hangs from a real chain.  While these Japanese shirts are tough to come by, they can be found online at Zakka Corp, a Brooklyn-based streetwear retailer.  [via tcritic]
