Gaming related clothing

    Did a quick search and couldn't find anything substantial in the forums about it but I thought there should be a thread where we could 'show off'/suggest/discuss some gaming related clothing, whether they be t-shirts, hoodies, costumes or footwear.

    Most of the gaming related clothes out there are really gharish.

    Found this one on the Ubiworkshop website. Assassin's Creed Desmond Hoodie. Quite expensive but seems to be a great design and really good quality. Pretty sure I'm gonna get it.


    I remember getting a pair of the Nintendo Airmax years ago. Loved them to bits, until they fell to bits on my feet due to the amount I wore them.

    So, what stuff do you have/want/hate??

    I'm wearing a Halo Reach hoody right now that I got free with the game. It's quite comfy.

    I really want Isaacs RIG hoody thingy.

    I half a Half Life t shirt I got with some some GOTY edition of HL 1. It's really old now but still brilliant!

    I want a Mass Effect N7 hoody. Looks like a normal hoody and not many people would know what N7 meant.

    I also have this:

    I don't know what it is as I've no problem wearing band tshirts etc, I just find wearing anything game related as a bridge too far to be honest.

    That said, I'm the same in regards to wearing movie/tv related items. I do like some of the shirts on qwertee though, they can be quite witty.

    Quite fond of the N7 hoodies myself too. Was really tempted to get one about a year or so ago. Kinda regretted not getting it but I suppose I still can if I really want to.

    HAHA I was the same Kearney, had the credit card out an all! I saw one of their new hoodies and they look crap, like sheps actual armor. And I can't see it protecting you from the eventual hiding you would get for wearing it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,808 ✭✭✭✭chin_grin


    I own this t shirt (I like the "hammer" aspect of the art......even though it has nothing from the game on it).

    Resident_Evil-T-Shirts-tsresevlretrozombie-0-Large.jpg

    And this idea is brilliant. But I'd only wear/use it if I was wearing another shirt underneath. Would be great for a zombie walk.

    I quite liked the Assassins Creed hoodie. Looked quite decent, and the 'eagle peak' (their words) is kind of cool.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    Hmmm.......i got 2 zelda tees and some mario stuff at the Nintendo store in NY.... Got 2 Street Fighter tees from Capcom's store. Em...... try cafepress or nerdyshirts see if there's something good, hopefully they're not all just dumb puns!

    Man that Mass Effect hoodie looks pretty damn good!

    And one of these...

    And my favourite, a green one of these!

    I don't think I've ever bought anything, but I did get MGS1 and Nintendo DS t-shirts when I bought them. The MGS one was nice, don't think it had branding, but a sort of concept/abstract version of Snake's face. The DS tee had "Touch Me" printed on the front... only one person touched me because of it. I no longer have either shirts, they fell apart eventually.

    If I was to buy some gaming apparel, it'd have to be subtle, especially for more modern stuff. Classic games, like Pac-man and Space Invaders could be more overt I suppose. I'd like some Blinky shoes:

    Oh! I just remembered, I had a pair of Luigi themed underpants when I was about 8 years old :D

    had some other t-shirts with preorder, but size S, so my misses wears them :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,509 ✭✭✭NotorietyH


    I have the Mass Effect N7 hoodie. It's comfy as hell and cool, but it attracts cat hair like a mofo so don't wear it as much as I'd like as I usually have to de-fur it for about 20 minutes before I wear it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,824 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    I really must get around to getting a Rez T-shirt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    3 belts. A Mario one that has the 1up and power up mushroom that are interchangeable, a sonic one that spins and a Zelda one with the eagle and triforce.

    Used to have a pair of Space invaders Vans but they got ruined in work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭Ross_Mahon


    I really liked the T-Shirt you got with the Far Cry 2 Collector's edition

    lol, i had a T-Shirt from when i went to one of the I-Series that we got printed for our CSS clan, had my name on the back etc... cheesey as **** but sure i wore it round the house a few times as well !

    Wouldn't really wear a gaming T-Shirt when im not in the house or at something related to gaming.. tho im sure they're like 'pussy' magnets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,792 ✭✭✭Mark Hamill


    Toplessrobot does a geek apparel of the week thing, but keep in mind that its pretty much all American based sites, and a lot of them do that thing where they sell a different t-shirt each day, so most aren't available anymore. Still some cool designs though:

    These Portal inspired socks are still available

    Got that one, wear it every now and again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,912 ✭✭✭SeantheMan


    Those portal socks are quality haha.
    There's no gaming t-shirt I've seen yet that I've classed as "must own" ...I'll have to start checking through some sites.

    The only movie one I ever got (slightly off topic :P , but so cool) is

    I have this, it's really nice
    its actually pretty warm when it's cold and not sweltering when it's hot (although when is it ever hot in Ireland). it has a decent fit on a fat bastard like myself, doesn't over emphasise the belly although I dont have the cool black skin/green jacket look going on like the guy in the picture.

    only thing i dont like about it is those metal .. things on the end of the sleeves. they make a loud noise when they hit anything and they're pretty damned heavy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,761 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    bought myself one of these for 7quid the other day on play.com

    I love anything gaming related! Lets see, i have:

    l4d_infect_warning_shirt.png

    41xRtC2qHfL._SX342_.jpg

    img2.jpg


    I also have a few Mario tshirts, 2 space invaders tshirts, and a few non-game specific tshirts. My prize possession though is my Limited Edition, 1 of 1000, Commemorative Series Official Nintendo Duck Hunt tshirt (see attached).

    Would love that Desmond and Assassins Creed hoodies, was looking at them before and trying very hard to justify the prices (including shipping!). And, i have intentions of getting the Complete Assassins Creed II Ezio outfit. Where i'm going to get the money is a problem!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,739 ✭✭✭✭Ol' Donie


    Great idea for a thread. Always on the look out for good gaming tshirts.

    I almost went an bought it the one I linked in the OP.
    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTV4LBV2S1MLBSzo9irejQ63D5tA-CaIL7JoguAQK3O-Sv_qQe48A
    The price was $90 making it about €70. then I went checkout and the minimum delivery was $31 for unrecorded delivery. It would have made it A minimum of $121 (€93) which is just outrageous for a hoodie. I couldn't justify it.

    I always feel that's the way with gaming related clothes. Most of the nice stuff is WAYYY over priced. Disappointed to see that this one costs SO much.

    One thing I cant stand is the cheap tees that say something like 'Blow Me' and have a picture of a NES cartridge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,731 ✭✭✭GreenWolfe


    Got one of these from Qwertee a while back:

    Qwertee-Male-Mockup_500x500.jpgQwertee-Male-Mockup_500x500.jpg

    Not a lot of people recognise it though. :(

    Also have this Ken vs Ryu t-shrt from a sale from Play.com. The printing is somewhat faint unfortunately.

    19095109_300x300_1.jpg

    I couldn't find a picture but I also bought a cream-coloured Space Invaders t-shirt from Game a while back. It has a large green space invader alien on the back with a field of black-coloured aliens on the front.

    Plus, that's not even the cool one. The eagle one was basically the one Desmond wore in AC:Brotherhood and had a pretty sweet (yet subtle) eagle on the back. Totally sold out though and removed from the store from what I can see. :(

    That is the one with the eagle on the back :confused:. And it's back for sale now. The white one as well as the black one (shipping from May 2012!!). There is also a reversible one too but that's not back on sale. What one was the one you were referring to?

    why does the hood have a zipper?

    I have this:

    Also have the one this guy is wearing:

    I thought the design was great but I now know that low prints are not very flattering.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,923 ✭✭✭kearneybobs


    why does the hood have a zipper?
    I know. Kinda boggles the mind as to the functionality of it. I read on their facebook that it hangs down on your forehead so that could be distracting/annoying. Still love it though. :o


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    yeah and if you unzip it
    it'll be like two huge dog ears hanging out the back of your neck


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Wetai


    why does the hood have a zipper?
    Must've been designed by Nomura.

    I had a God of War II t-shirt that came with the special edition of the game. Unfortunately, it no longer fits me. I've also got a Rockstar on and I'm currently wearing a Splatterhouse one. I'd happily wear more geekery, if I had them.
