Martin Gore of Depeche Mode in Westward Bound Clothing

Roots and Culture – Westward Bound, amazing what pops up on social media. Our second T.Shirt design, worn by Martin Gore of Depeche Mode. Designed by Genesis P-Orridge of Throbbing Gristle / Psychic TV for the underground fetish club Der Putsch we were running in London (morphed into Westward Bound). An exclusive art T-Shirt with a restricted print run of 100. Photo taken on tour in Stockholm, Sweden in 1986. Martin and Gen were both friends of our founder Steve Beech and part of the wider contemporary and avant-garde mix.

Fun times and a part of our wider provenance.

    Have you thought about re-releasing this design?

      The agreement with Genesis P-Orridge was to produce a limited run of 100. Gen possibly still has the artwork, he now resides in New York. We know the artwork appeared on a Psychic TV album.
