some of the biggest names in punk (Sex Pistols, Sonic Youth) for

~Harper's Bazaar
"In Ripped: T-Shirts from the Underground, Padilla captures more
than 200 tees made by (or in homage to) post-punk artists and
musicians of the '70s and '80s from his collection. The shirts --
which are shown in all their sweat-stained glory -- chronicle a
musical movement that hinged on the DIY." ~Los Angeles Times
