Okay settle down, settle down, maybe I am getting a head of myself comparing the new clothing upstart Regan Smith Clarke to Johnny Cupcakes, but then again maybe I’m not…

Regan Smith Clarke is a brand new clothing line based out of Boston, Ma that has really grabbed my attention. From their attention to detail to the quality of their products and prints these guys have really knocked it of the park. So your probably wondering why exactly I am comparing this upstart with the legendary JC, well let me break it down.

-Boston!
First off both from Boston, Ma, yes this doesn’t mean much but hey it is what it is!

-EXTRAS!!!
One of the things that really impressed me when I received shirts from Regan Smith Clarke was the details and extras. From the over-sized hangtags that are custom to each shirt to extra buttons and die cut stickers, these guys definitely did not cut any corners when it comes to goodies.

-Artist/Style
While you wont be seeing and cupcakes and crossbones on a RSC tee, you will be seeing plenty of imagery that lends itself to the cartoonish, friendly, fresh and approachable JC style. In fact the entire RSC line was designed by Danny Jones A.K.A Yasly, whom just recently designed the first ever Johnny Cupcakes Artist Series.

While I have obviously made a few huge conclusions comparing RSC to JC, especially with only four shirts under Regan Smith Clarke’s belt, I just see a lot of promise and potential with these guys. I also want to state that I do not think that RSC is trying to be the next JC, I can simply just see a lot of similarities in their approach and execution.

Last but not least, the tees run a solid $20 which is a great starting point for a tee company trying to make a name for themselves and build a following in the process. They also have some very cool prints of all their designs. The prints are on 100 lb Silk Cove and run $10 a piece or all 4 for only $15! Did I mention free shipping on order over $12!

  • cheahhh
    the next johnny cupcakes ripoff....good job on starting a business and they are nice, but it's way to close to johnny cupcakes, which is getting old anyways. it's not very original, its more like most scene/indie kids out of boston....trying to hard to be not cool
  • I really dont think they are trying to be the next JC. Yes there are similarities but i dont see or think in anyway that they are ripping them off
  • cheahhh
    maybe the term ripping them off was too harsh but they're are just too many simmilarities. even same artists? i just hoped for more coming out of my hometown and even same college. maybe i'm just being a bearer of bad news before others start harping on him for the same. get different Regan!

    to me it seams like almost every clothing line that comes from boston, chicago, new york, and a little of cali
    has the cartoonish, friendly, fresh, & bold lines look going on. im glad he didn't put clothing or apparel at the end of the company name. i will defiantly be buying when bigger sizes are available.
  • Thanks for the good words man!
