A portion of sales of "Tsunami Watch 2011" T-shirts will benefit the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund to support relief efforts.

Over years of close calls and uniquely Hawaii events, Crazy Shirts has become the master in the quick turnaround. In the aftermath of yesterday's earthquake in Japan and the tsunami that followed, the Hawaii-based company has created exclusive “Tsunami Watch 2011” T-shirt designs, available soon in Crazy Shirts retail locations and at www.CrazyShirts.com. A portion of proceeds from sales will be donated to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund to support its relief efforts.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those who have been affected by the Japan earthquake and tsunami,” said Mark Hollander, chief executive officer and president of Crazy Shirts, in a press release. “Hawaii has endured its fair share of natural disasters over the years, so we know what it takes to recover and rebuild. We hope that our contributions will help make a difference in the rebuilding process for those effected by this event.”

The men’s T-shirt design features images of both Japan and Hawaii and the magnitude of the earthquake on the front, while the back includes a graphic of Hawaiian Island chain with “Tsunami Watch” and the date of the event.

The women’s shirt features the Hawaiian Island image on the front and on the back, a small back shoulder hit that reads “Japan-Hawaii March 11, 2011 Support.”

The men’s design is available in classic white or heather brown crew neck T-shirts and the women’s in watermelon baby-rib T-shirt. Both retail for $27.
