Limited Edition T-shirt: Ian Jepson for Steri Stumpie and Levi Strauss.

Q: Hey Ian. Thanks for agreeing to be a Steri Illustrator. How long have you been working as a creative?

A: I’ve only really been working for a year now… Still new to the whole 9-5 job thing!

Q: Sorry about that. The 9-5, that is. No doubt the Steris get you through though. How many Steri Stumpies would you say you drink per week?

A: On average I’d say 1 - 2 a week. Depends on when I find myself near a 7-11 with a bit of extra pocket change…

Q: Pocket change is the best. So when is your favourite time to drink a Steri Stumpie?

A: Late at night, after partying till 2am. It’s also good the morning after…

Q: When it comes to party damage, the Steri does heal all. What’s your favourite flavour Steri Stumpie?

A: Chocolate! It’s the classic. Got me through high school and college…

Q: We heard there’s a school in the Northern Cape that allows pupils to drink Steri Stumpies during class. Rad hey. Do you find Steri Stumpies help you with your ideas?

A: I do, especially for this illustration. I stared at a chocolate steri stumpie for hours asking it to reveal it’s secrets to me.

Q: And my what secrets it revealed! What do you use as inspiration for you work?

A: Movies are great, I love watching a good film… Also old movie posters, good music, other illustrators work on the internet. And random stuff that happens to me.

Q: We can see the movie influence in your t-shirt design, which we <3 very much. Please give us a link to any awesome projects you’re working on right now, so people can see more of your radness.

A: You can check out my website at www.ianjepson.co.za!

And yes, we’re launching some new flavours. Rad hey.
