Emotionally connected cotton shirts
Our T-shirts and polo shirts are 100% cotton, and our sweatshirts and jackets are 80% cotton – because cotton is a natural textile, very comfortable to wear, soft, breathable and durable. But the growing of cotton needs large amounts of water, pesticides and large areas of fertile land. Pollution through pesticides has a big influence on the environment, and it will take a long time to recover. One kilogram of cotton requires 8,000–10,000 liters of water (the weight of one T-shirt is about 200 grams). A lot of energy and earth’s resources are spent to produce cotton products, so we should be more careful with our clothes and try to use them for as long as possible. Continue reading...

Wine and Linux with Wine shirts
We are still searching for the Tux with beer boot screen. Our old friend has become very popular at our shop, so it would be interesting to find the original source. And we made an alternative Tux with wine, for those who prefer not only beer. Continue reading...

Shipping labels, the Linux-way
We have started using shipping labels on most of our international parcels, instead of plastic pouches. This is a small step towards making less plastic garbage; not our first and not our last one. Customs documentation can be made online, so to most destinations, plastic pouches provided by FedEx can be replaced with a small sticker. As usual, we are not searching for the easiest way (buying a ZPL label printer), but the Linux-way. Continue reading...

Go-mail and HELLOTUX shirts
My wife Maria asked me today if I know how many countries of the world people are using our Linux shirts in. I made a quick check, and the number is 84.
Most of them are from Europe and North America, but orders often come from Australia, Asia and South America as well. Some African Linux users show their commitment to Linux with our shirts too, especially from Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Tanzania and South Africa. Continue reading...

About colors
What is the favorite color of t-shirts at Hellotux? Of course, black. All our items are available in black. For professional computer users, it is a very important color, not only because it is comfortable to use, but there is no dirt visible and it makes you look slimmer. I think this color has special mystical meaning. Maybe one day I will learn the answer :))))
But today, I don't want to write about black t-shirts. Yes, we have other colors which you can try. For long time I preferred dark shades too in my clothes, but now I use all colors. I think, we need some bright spots around, it makes us more optimistic.
Dark blue is a good alternative to black. All embroidered Linux logos look perfect on it. Continue reading...

My daughter is nine years old, and as everybody in my family, she is a Debian GNU/Linux user. She had an exam in the end of the school-year on the subject of "digital culture". The teacher of this subject kindly told me that she will have to have basic skills of making presentations on the computer. Continue reading...
