Geek and Gamer Wear Online? 40

Posted by Cliff from the clothe-yourselves dept.
Phillip31337 asks: "I've been looking online for places to buy t-shirts related to computers and gaming. The only websites I have found so far are ThinkGeek , Game-Skins , and ErrorWear. Does anyone else in the Slashdot community know of any other sites that sell game and nerd/geek related t-shirts?" Just about every online comic has some form of merchandising going on these days, and if they sell T-shirts (most do), said shirts would fit nicely into this category. What other online vendors have unique shirts that would please your average (or the discriminating) Slashdot reader?

    I'd normally admonish you to stay the hell away from the gene pool, but I think you're managing quite well on your own.
  • Ever wanted a Buddy Christ figurine watching you drive?

    Graphitti Designs [graphittidesigns.com] has them. But more to the point they make almost every DC/Marvel comic character T-shirt out there as well as View Askew, Grendel, Hellboy, and others.

    You could always go to Cafe Press [cafepress.com] and make your own. The site is designed to offer turn-ey stores for t-shitrs, sweatshirts, coffee mugs, mousepads, etc. Just upload your own designs and buy the shirts. If you set the prices to the minumum they really aren't that bad. Plus your friends can buy your shirts as well.

    While they may not have a heck of a lot of merchandise, the Google Store [googlestore.com] has some wearables that I'm sure a few geeks like myself would wear.
  • If you're really stuck for something new and interesting, make your own designs and get them printed.

    Check out The Oasis if you happen to live near Birmingham city centre in the UK, they'll print 'em off at a fiver each.

  • This "Ask Slashdot" is clearly an ad for the companies linked in the post itself. I don't mind this, unlike other advertising media, you are free to post your own ads on the second page (user comments).

    In that vein, visit Yashaneko.com [yashaneko.com], my girlfriend Andromeda's site. She'll have her art up soon, she does custom designs for everything from framed art, to comics, to tattoos.

    if you are easily offended. But this is some of the funniest sh1t that I've seen in a while.

    http://www.unamerican.com/catalog/index.htm

    The "Linux is the Shit" bumper sticker should be a slashdot favorite. Other favorites include "fuck yeah I'm weird", "carpe genitalia", "God mastrubates", "sex with you would suck", "unfuckwithable", "why are my kids so stupid?", or my personal favorite, "talk nerdy to me".

      Cool shirts ("Fuck Work" and "Fuck School") I'm not about to send my credit card # to an insecure site, tho.

    • Ok, fair enough, unamerican.org does have clothing with those texts. However, only pointing to those provides a somewhat unrepresentative sample.

      For instance, you can also find clothing with the following:

      - "set me free" (with an image of a tv)

      - "wage slave" (w/ factory image)

      - "your ad here" (w/ image of greenbacks)

      - "talk is cheap" (w/ image of bomb)

      - "keep music evil"

      - "I am confused"

      - "join us" (w/ people & ufos)

      - "nature is pissed"

      - "not for sale"

      ... and so on - the page really deserves a visit
      (but, as the original poster mentioned,
      you may be offended...)

    IMHO the ultimate geekwear is the line of "O'Really" t-shirts from copyleft.net [copyleft.net] ...

    My personal favorite is "Assembling Etherkillers" but you should pick your own fav ...

    I can't remember the URL for the site, but I saw a T once that topped these ... best "got root" shirt I ever saw ... French Blue ... red outline pentagon on the chest ... yellow background inside the pentagon ... no "S" ... nope ... said "SU" ... 'nuff said ...

    If someone would post a link to it, I'd buy it ...

    • *nods* the O'really line was designed by the BOFHCam bloke [bofhcam.org]. You should see his site, that whole section's based around the o'really concept, it's mondo cool and he's got more designs there that copyleft haven't picked up yet.

      *hugs* to BOFHCam bloke
    • Copyleft seems to be dead in the water. If you read the comments people have left under the products, you'll see that credit cards are being billed, but orders aren't being shipped and emails aren't being replied to.

      This is really too bad. I ordered from them a couple of years ago and was happy with everything about the transaction, but i wouldn't touch them with a 10-foot pole for now.
  • But Threadless [threadless.com] does have some kick-ass, well designed tees.

    Also don't forget the Joy of Tech store [joyoftech.com] which even has a few Slashdot Gladiators [joyoftech.com] shirts left in the bargain bin.

  • What about europe? (Score:2, Interesting)

    by phagstrom ( 451510 )
    Does anyone know of any good online geek-gear shops that ship from within europe?

    I hate paying customs ;-(
  • This is great for everyday wear but does anyone know of a place where a geek can buy more formal gear such as cufflinks or ties?
  • The best one should be this [cafepress.com].
  • ...is not very geeky [tshirthell.com], but it tends to kick other tee shirt sites' asses.

    - A.P.
  • The OpenBSD [openbsd.org] site has some pretty cool t-shirts.
  • For all the Mac people out there...

    www.macsurfshop.com [macsurfshop.com] has some interesting designs, including making fun of 'ol Steve from Dell.

    If it weren't for customs to Canada, I'd have one already (not to mention the exchange rate)

  • Cotton Expressions [cottonexpressions.com] has a bunch of great science and astronomy related shirts, as well as a number of shirts with Sidney Harris cartoons. They're not fully online yet; the shirt catalog is there, but the ordering system is "fill in the form, then print and fax it". (Matthew, it's the 21st century already. Get with the program! :-)

    SoftWear Toys & Tees [softwear-tnt.com] is also worth a look-see, especially if you're a Lois McMaster Bujold [dendarii.com] fan. Order via PayPal, or use the print-and-mail form.

  • I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned Copyleft [copyleft.net], but I guess I just rectified that. :)
  • The real fashion question should be:

    Does anybody really care that you've gotten a pizza stain on that ragged holey 'Maximum RPM' shirt they gave you for free at the LUG meeting?

    'Fashion for slouching over a keyboard' just hasn't ever seemed very exciting to me.

  • No, not the game company. This is one of my favorite shirts [id.com], particularly after a friend commented:

    "If you really were into that, you'd have it tatooed on your back."p>
