Or how about your avatar?

These T-Shirts by Rixx Javixx are freakin' awesome. Also it's nigh impossible that you ever wear one or see one neither in game nor in RL because !!CCP!! can't figure out how to sell EVE merchandise. Nevermind that Iceland's largest online store is older than EVE (!) so NO, there is NO special nor unsurmountable issue with being a Icelandic company selling stuff abroad.

What there is it's !!CCP!! at their best incompetence and lack of skills to function like every other videogame company in the world.

I know I would buy those T-shirts. Either ingame or in RL. It would be cool after 7 years... What?

If it were just the racial logo I would. Not the ships. Big shiny spaceships on t-shirts are more likely something I would buy for one of my kids.

no. I love EVE, but I can't see me wearing any apparel in real life for any video game, really.

Exactly what I was thinking.

The trick to video game t-shirts is to keep it subtle, so that only those who know the game recognise it, and the rest of society doesn't instantly find a reason to call you a manchild.

Meh. I don't wear T-shirts outside of home, anyway. But would be cool to have one of those with a Nightmare on it... even for my avatars ingame! Yiole would totally wear a Mackinaw one... with ice roids! Lol

Need to take that stuff from video shoes and use it on shirts. Walk around with a "mackinawmining.gif" on it.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

This.

Gold t-shirt with the Amarr logo instead of a Polo/izod/whatever. Would be cool. Actually, If my character's jacket was in the store, I might buy that if it was well made not cheap, like the Anime backpacks or jackets they sell in some stores.

My choice of pronouns is based on your avatar. Even if I know what is behind the avatar.

I wear a captain's hat when I am alone. I usually run missions wearing it.

But I would totally wear this shirt anywhere. Geeky, but in the good way:

I'm past the age where I can get away with wearing a t-shirt that's anything other than plain black or white.

A tasteful Amarrian robe, however, now that I'd be interested in.

this.
so much this.

ships would be better suited for 3D models (either one-piece 3D printed or of the glue & scalpel variety). I'd like a Dramiel model on my desk.

Yea, the logo is too big for amarr. The TEST Alliance one is more the size I have in mind. I like the Slightly Sexual sticker though. The player that designed that logo is a genius. I looked them up recently, I wonder where I saw them. Not sure where they call home.

Hell yeah I would, though I agree they could use a bit more subtlety in design.

I've even worn my two NGNG Battletech shirts in public and no one's given me any weird looks so far. (shrugs) Nowadays, I don't think people are surprised, nor even as judgmental, of seeing adults with clothing that gives evidence of the kid in them. Maybe ten years ago mind you, I wouldn't be caught dead in a t-shirt with a video game logo.

Probably they call home a place where CCP Legal won't find them for the next 3 months. Lol
