This note just in from a reader:
I’ve noticed in the past couple of weeks lots of people walking around the neighborhood wearing these t-shirts that say in large fancy cursive italics “Clinton Hill Chill.” Some with white script on blue t-shirts, some blue script on white. These t-shirts are awesome and I would love to get my hands on one, but I have no idea where they come from (a cursory google yielded nothing). Have you seen these? I’d love to know where to get one.
I saw one last week on a teenage girl and it looked great. Someone help! How can we get our hands on these?
I also put up a post on Brooklynian in the hopes of finding the answer.
In other clothing-related news, there’s a cool-looking store selling BK t-shirts on DeKalb near Skillman called D Train Couture. I haven’t been in yet – anyone have a review?

Check eBay for any type T shirt. If it’s hot it will be listed there. Or, I will try to find it for you. Check eBay seller cashguy1111 on eBay and see my T Shirt listings, feedback, and my very liberal eBay blog. I print custom shirts also. tttboss@aol.com is where to reach me. Sincerely, David

Whoa, what’s with all the spam?
I think those shirts are part of a summer youth program or something. I’ve seen a few around but they seem to only be worn by young (pre-high school even) kids. Regardless, I love it and if they wanted to sell me one for fundraising, I’d be glad to buy one.
It would be nice if someone could print up some tees and donate the proceeds to something in our community (perhaps the sad little Clinton Hill library?). I would buy at least 4.
AWS, I completely agree…some serious fundraising needs to be done to support that sad excuse for a library…
Library funding is partially based on use. The more you use the library the more funding they get. You can use the nyc library website to have books sent to that branch if they do not have what you are looking for.
The t-shirts are a result of the recent song by Fabolous about Brooklyn. The lyrics include “I’m Clinton Hill chill, Bed-Stuy fly, got a Fort Greene lean, etc” I bet some local t-shirt shop is selling them.
I think they are sold at Guz designs on Fulton near the Clean-Rite. I don’t think they have anything to do with a song. If they have 718 in the middle they have always sold them
