Geek Apparel of the Week: Care Were, CHOAM, Good Vs. Evil
 |
?? How does one become a Care Were? Does a Care Bear have to bite you? Or is this the result of the Care Bear Stare? Anyways, this shirt is $20 at Threadless.

?? You know how my favorite nerd shirts involve fictional company and product logos that non-nerds wouldn’t possibly get? Well, I personally have no idea what this Dune shirt represents, which means I approve of it mightily. It’s ?18 at Last Exit to Nowhere.

?? This is a little weird, but tomorrow — not today — Ript Apparel will be selling their 1,000th t-shirt, which they happened to give me a picture of today. $5 of each t-shirt they sell will go to Dignity U Wear, which donates clothes and more to schools, shelters and veterans in need. All very awesome, so make sure to stop by Ript tomorrow!
