End the Rebel propaganda machine with this t-shirt: Just like they blew up thousands of contractors forced to work on the incomplete Death Star, they slaughtered hundreds of these innocent, beautiful creatures. [Red Bubble]

Huggable Electric Hoodies for Couples: A Visual Ipecac

Sean Fallon — Wed, 21 May 2008 16:00:00 EDT

Nothing gets the bile rising in the throat faster than a couple wearing the same clothes—that is until you have witnessed a couple wearing these Embrace Me hoodies. The abstract logo on the front of the garment is actually made of a conductive fabric. When two people wearing the shirts embrace, small white lights flicker on the back of each hoodie, forming a Big Dipper pattern. If that wasn't bad enough, the light show is accompanied by a faint heartbeat sound.

This isn't the first time someone has come up with an idea for a huggable shirt, but the difference is that you can actually purchase the Embrace Me Hoodie. Unfortunately, it will cost between $480-$600 for the privilege of nauseating everyone around you. [Studio 5050 via Trendhunter via Talk2myShirt]

Technics vs. Marvel Shirts Are Perhaps the Most Incredible Shirts Ever

Jason Chen — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 17:30:00 EDT

Even though our (pretend) DJ days were over back in college, we still have a fond spot in our hearts for Technics and their beautiful equipment. The Technics 1200s are legendary DJ gadgets after all, so when we saw that the company actually issued a series of shirts featuring Marvel characters behind the decks, our various body parts exploded. It's hard to tell which one is the best, but we're going to go with either Iron Man or Captain America, though the Captain Britain vs. Captain America one has its charms as well. If they weren't $50 each, we'd stock up on one apiece. [DMCWorld via Audio Junkies]

ThinkGeek's Personal Soundtrack Shirt Becoming a Real Product

Jason Chen — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 15:50:00 EDT

One of ThinkGeek's many fantastic April Fools' products is now becoming real, following the same path as the 8-bit Tie last year. This one, the Personal Soundtrack Shirt, takes a little bit more engineering effort than a tie, so if you're interested in one you'll have to put yourself on their notification list. But think of it, being able to blast the Imperial March or Magnificent Seven theme or the Get Smart theme whenever you enter a room? That's what we call quality. [Think Geek]

Worst. Keynote. Ever. Shirt. Period.

Jason Chen — Tue, 12 Jun 2007 15:45:52 EDT

Thought yesterday's WWDC Keynote was the worst keynote ever? Show your disapproval with this Worst. Keynote. Ever. shirt. Hell, just buy one and wear it to every keynote you go to from now on—even if it's not a Jobsnote—just for a pre-emptive screw you to the presenter.

Bonus points if you wear it to your own keynote address. – Jason Chen

iShirt From Urban Tool Makes You Look Like...

Jason Chen — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 19:30:48 EDT

The iShirt from Urban Tool isn't a joke shirt like the previous iShirt, it's an actual shirt with a pocket designed to hold an iPod. Oh, how we've wished our shirt had pockets. Oh, wait a minute...

The Urban Tool shirt also comes with even goofier-looking loops to thread your iPod headphones through, and generally makes you look like—yes you've been waiting for it—an urban tool. – Jason Chen

Animated Atari Pong T-Shirt

Brian Lam — Mon, 12 Mar 2007 16:57:18 EDT

The unseasonably warm San Francisco weather today makes me think of Summer attire. That, and how I'd rather be outside today. Bringing such thoughts back to the realm of gadgets, I present you with this T-shirt which mounts an animated (but unplayable) game of Pong on the bony forefront of your chest, using some unspecified display tech and two AAA batteries. This piece of unquestionably tacky attire joins the ranks of more tasteful Pong watch and clock we've recently written about, but this could be the most relevant Pong-themed gadget yet.

Is this the "I'm with Stupid" shirt of this century? Maybe, if legions of geeks can get over the epilepsy inducing animation and the feeling of a warm battery pack digging into the ribcage. I'll pass. When it comes to "technical clothing" I prefer the Star Trek like suction-fit of Underarmor thermals. They keep you comfortable in varying climate, and instead of Pong, they show nipples.–Brian Lam

Light Up the Night With Lumigram, Ma'am

Charlie White — Fri, 01 Dec 2006 13:03:50 EST

Good god, gals! Get a load of this getup. This little minitop lights up the night with fiber optics embedded into the fabric. You can also get handbags, decorations and even fiber optic hair using the technology, all from France at an unspecified price. Nice. – Charlie White

USB Air Conditioned Shirt

Jason Chen — Mon, 19 Jun 2006 15:00:01 EDT

When it comes to USB powered gadgets, this doesn't just take the cake, it takes the entire bakery and then burns it down for the insurance money. The USB shirt has two fans on the left and right sides of the back, taking in air to cleanse all the sweat off your spare tire. There's an external switch on the USB cable to adjust the fan speed, in case your sweat doesn't quite go up to eleven.

The shirt is also powered by four AA batteries in case you don't have a USB slot anywhere nearby. It even plugs into the cigarette lighter in your car—because it's such a great idea hooking up your body to your car's electrical system. – Jason Chen

Shirt With LED Clock

Jason Chen — Wed, 03 May 2006 09:54:23 EDT

Dying to start in your own VH1 reality show (or three)? Get this shirt with built in digital clock and you're halfway there. The shirt runs on four AAA batteries and can be shut off in uncomfortable situations, such as when getting chewed out by your boss.

Similar to the LED Dress Shirt, but more functional, everyone will always know just how much of their lives you've wasted by making them stare at your shirt.
