Whit Honea is a slacker, a borderline degenerate, and a daydream believer. He's also our resident expert on casual chic. If it's comfortable, and not heinous, he's all over it. He's quite charming, really.

3Sixteen calls themselves "the new royalty" and backs it up with the following:

Royalty is a title that has traditionally been acquired through birthright, financial gain or military prowess. Since the beginning of time, rulers have sought to maintain their power at the expense of the common people, thereby perpetuating the neverending[sic] struggle between the haves and have-nots.

The new royalty is 3sixteen's effort to highlight the everyday workers. The proletariat. The masses. The have-nots. The ones who choose not to pursue power or monetary gain by way of greed, lies and corruption. It's a new title of nobility that belongs to those who strive to make a difference through creativity, hustle, and innovation.

To be honest, when we first saw their new line of t-shirts we thought we were looking at summer wear for the goth crowd, but after discovering shirts with some color we decided that wasn't the case. Still, they're a bit dark for our tastes, but perhaps yours are different. Check them out.
