Shop Indie this Holiday Season!

This holiday season, remember to support indie brands and shop local/independent! Over the next couple of weeks, I will be adding a sale and a couple of other ways to save on The Good Child product.

There’s really nothing like an independently designed product that stands up to corporate premium goods and is just that much better for being handmade by a hard-working local. Thank you for continuing to support the brand over these last couple of years! Enjoy!

Feet First with Marcus Troy x Puma

This week’s Random Hero post featured some new kicks that I received in the mail courtesy of fashion icon Marcus Troy and the legendary sports brand Puma. You can still read up on the post, here, and see how I rocked the new red Clyde Suedes below (click image for the full post).

Oh. And, don’t forget to enter to win yourself a pair.

Good Hoody Returns!

Back in a new, heavier fabric (50/50 poly/cotton) and cozier than before – the Good Hoody returns for pre-sale only.

Each style has The Good Child woven logo on the wearer’s left chest as well as a customized main label. Get your orders in now and expect delivery within about two weeks of purchase.

Only 10 per color each season will be available.

Hometown Glory – 12/8

Dallas locals are pretty good about representing themselves and one another, making sure everyone deservedly gets their shining moment as well as highlighting the city’s talent in general. This December 8th will be no exception.

CentralTrack.com and Centre present Hometown Glory. All featured talent is local and includes music by DJ Sober, -topic, Zhora, and Neo-Safari with clothing from Loyal KNG, yours truly – The Good Child, and Mid Point x Mentally Ill. Also on deck and performing live art will be Riley H0lloway, Joonbug of Fresh Kaufee, and Edward Ruiz.

The 18+ party will go down at Club Dada around 9pm on 12/8. Looks like it’s $5 for 21+ and $10 for the younger crowd.

Come out and enjoy the night and the chance to mingle with some of your favorite local creatives. You can RSVP on Facebook, here.

Damn Good Time – 11/17

This November 17th, gather up your friends and come out to Dallas’ Prophet Bar in Deep Ellum.

I have partnered up with some of Dallas’ most energetic and fun hip-hop artists for a Damn Good Time. Tony Q, Killa MC of the Brain Gang crew, and Plain Jane Francis are putting on a show and yours truly is hosting the entire night.

I will also have a table set up with merchandise, and as always, a few small freebies.

The show is all ages and only 10 bones to get in. If you’re on Facebook, RSVP here and let us know we can expect your support!

Johnny Cupcakes Does Dallas

At 7 pm tonight, Johnny Cupcakes takes his Coffin Tour to We Are 1976 in Dallas, TX. This is Johnny’s second visit to We Are 1976. Johnny loves the shop and creatives and the crowd they bring out. Here’s to humble creative forces and hoping to see YOU out tonight, too! You can RSVP here.

I was lucky enough to also get a moment to talk to Johnny on the phone, resulting in this rad interview on CentralTrack.com. Check it out and get amped for the visit tonight. I guarantee you there are already kids waiting outside (two years ago, I was one of them).

Welcome back, Johnny!

NEXT WEEKEND: Texas Teezilla 2012

TEXAS TEEZILLA IS BACK.

Last year, the founder of Texas local brand Lies and Filth put on a new event just for local apparel designers (mainly graphic t-shirt designers). The event was large both in vendor show-out and visitors. This year, the event is back and even bigger. Welcome to Texas Teezilla 2012.

Come through on September 29th from 1-9pm for FREE at the Quixotic World Theater in Deep Ellum (that’s 2824 Main St.). The Good Child will be back!

You’ll find yourself amongst a huge selection of independent t-shirt brands – old and new – big and small. You know the deal – Texas brands are notoriously known to work together and support one another with healthy competition. There will also be live music, raffles, and more. So, come join us for nothing less of a good time. RSVP here and see you then!
