Billi Tees

Classic case of a Kiwi having an idea in their own back yard ... a girl called Billi had an idea about making a t-shirt to remind a friend about the very small town that she came from.  And what do you know, the idea has turned into a small town business run out of the small town of Bulls!  (I had to actually look this up to find out where it was).

Anyhow, there are many people out their taking the old kiwi phrases and stamping them on tees, but these guys are a little bit different because of the designs they put with them.  There is a lot of thought into how to make a design represent something Kiwi.

The best part about what they have done so far was a Love Your Town tees competition which was about designing t-shirts made for you to wear to show off your little (or big) town that you originated from.  The winning designs were Westport, Invercargill, Dunedin, Ohakune, Blenheim, Napier, Wellington, Kaitaia, Rotorua and West Auckland.

Apart from the tees, they also do merino and sweatshirting so you got to take a look at these guys.  The tees last really well and there is nothing better than supporting a small town NZ business.  Go Billi!!

Contact details all on the web, http://www.billitees.co.nz/, or if you are reseasonbly close to Bulls (?!?!?!), you can pop into their store at 84 High St, Bulls, Rangitikei 4863.
