The Blot was recently introduced to Grits, a killer new clothing line from Houston’s own Reuben Levi. It began with “Grits,” a name that reminded Levi of Houston, Texas and Southern culture in general. As Reuben tells it, the concept was simple: “No Grits No Glory.” A reminder that if you want to do something you love, you have to put your whole self into it. Hold back and you won’t. It’s that simple.
What amazes me about Levi and his line of limited edition t-shirts is the fact that they are being produced in my very own city! I hate the fact that I know of t-shirt brands from around the country, yet here’s an amazing artist doing his thing in my own backyard and I had no clue. Thankfully, that’s no longer the case, and you can now expect updates on this talented designer regularly on The Blot Says…
Grits’ awesome limited edition t-shirts can be purchased for $25 each at the Grits online store. To learn more about this growing Texas brand check out the Grits blog, follow Grits on Twitter and join the Grits Facebook page.
