Geek T-shirts

June 20th, 2008

The link between geeks and T-shirts is well established, whether it’s based in the often esoteric T-shirt slogans and images worn by your average geek, such as ‘You’ve read my t-shirt, that’s enough social interaction for one day, or the truly exclusionist ‘There’s no place like 127.0.0.1’ (127.0.0.1 is ‘home’ in geekspeak).  There are geek T-shirts that work for non-geeks though, and often they are a clever combination of technology and style. One of the best of the recent offerings is  Music and Sons’s MUSIC-ED T-shirt which is a hand-printed shirt with a pocket that holds any MP3 player and in-built earbuds that can be strung through the shirt’s collar. It has an environmentally friendly version in organic cotton and bamboo too.  To use the shirt you simply have to put it on, slip your MP3 player in the pocket and connect it to the pocket plug, connect the supplied earbuds to the plug in the rear of the collar and you’re done! It cuts out all that dangling cabling too …

If that sounds a bit too high-tech, there’s fun to be had with the Gadgets.co.uk T-shirt which has an illuminated whiteboard powered by AAA batteries – so that you (or somebody else if you’re not a geek without friends) can write or draw anything they want on your front.
