Nope too expensive.

To be fair, wool jackets in the same style as the concord one usualy go for 100-150 USD, depending on brand.

hoenstly, yhe gurista hoodie and concord jacket are well priced, the T-shirts are way too expensive though, especially for me since i would have to factor in the gym mebership to get in shape enough to wear a tight t-shirt. not fat, but holy crap thsoe kind of t-shirts can only be worn by someone decently toned.

I've said this before the 0.0 range of clothing is prohibitively expensive, BUT, I have a lot of respect for whoever decided "Lets make some proper quality ****" instead of of some ****** "Fruit of the Loom" plastic prints. They're 10 to the dozen, but properly designed clothing items is certainly impressive.

I just wish I had the disposable income to buy the Concorn Ops

EVE players seems to whine often even in real life.

I've got a shirt and I like it. It's not something I will wear every day. But it is cool and the price tag was reasonably.

This attitude of "omg it's to costly" really is way over the line. If you can't buy something because you haven't got the money, than you can't buy it. There is no need to whine about it.

There are people out there that can buy $1000 pants. And they have the need for that.

Why should CCP sell a line of poorly fabricated and designed clothing for a low price? You would whine about it anyway - and then rightly so.

I just got my stuff from the 0.0 clothings. I bought the Guristas Hoodie and the rhoden Shipyards Longsleeve. Compared to the old range of clothings from the old eve online store it's a huge improvement. The hoodie is a much much better quality than the old fruit of theloom stuff. And the Longsleeve has a better quality of the prints on it than the old shirts. All in all I must honestly say, that the pricing is not to high taken the quality of the Clothes into consideration.

P.S. what i really like is the fact that the clothes are made in Portugal, not any cheape produced stuff made in e.g. Bangladesh, where the needlewoman hardly get enought money to life, so that we get our stuff for less than 10 bucks.

and then everyone would wonder why you have a backwards Comedy Central logo on your shirt Roll (seriously, how'd they pull that off and not get slapped by someone!?)

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

I'd pay reasonable money for a red or blue Quafe t-shirt.

Why have these never been made available in the online store?


I have a blue quafe shirt Pirate

The reason you can't buy them is because they're the free Fanfest T-shirts, exclusively for actual attendees. Blue was Fanfest 2011 and red Fanfest 2012, just like the Yellow one was for Fanfest 2013 attendees.

That said, a generic Quafe shirt would be pretty cool, and IIRC there was one in the old store (not 100% sure).

Edit: I also got the RS longsleeve, only thing I'm mildly disappointed with is the lowermost line of text appearing to be missing the outermost letters (it reads "ALLENTE SYSTEM")

Easy. CC didn't use that logo until 2010, whereas CCP have been using the Caldari logo since at least 2002. If anything, CCP should have trademarked that long ago.

Edit: they probably couldn't due to similarities with the copyright logo itself Lol

My hoodies used to cost £50-60 each and that was back in 2002 or so :p

The ones I buy now are 600-700kr, which works out about the same, so not that different from the prices in the store.

My complaint with the store is that the Guristas hoodie is only in Olive...which is not.a.good.colour.

Maybe they are a little pricey, but, then, it depends what your usual clothes spending is.

I only usually get a load of new clothes every 4-5 years, but splurge on a t-shirt or hoody if I see one that catches my attention online in between.

Its a lot of money to spend on something you wear once in a blue moon, but if you are wearing it every week, then as long as it lasts a couple of years, its not bad at all....and tbh, I will probably live in the concord shirt when its available :p
