Car clothing

Back in the late 90's when the dot com bloom was at full swing and you will get unlimited amount of funding as long as you have a website for your startup, there were a few companies that pay people to have their cars "wrapped" with their ads, sort of like the way they wrap buses. They did screen people before you would be accepted to the program and you are much more likely to be accepted if you are a college student, I think they only paid like $500ish a month.
 
Generally I find that clothes branded with car maker logos are crass and not right. Hello, Ferrari merchandise.

On the other hand, there are some excellent car-related designs made by people unassociated with the originals. The FinalGear 'outlines' design is great, or something like the Haynes Camaro tee, even if the website spells 'Camaro' wrong. And Jalopnik's Save the Enzos design, too.

That is fantastic. I want that quite badly.

Whilst technically not car related, I rather want this :

I don't have much car clothing 9except for a WRX hat I got years ago), but I have a bit of motorcycle apparel and such. I have 2 Ducati bags that I got pretty cheap from the Aus Motorbike show and they look pretty cool. I also (will soon) have a Deus T-shirt which is nice too and similar to the one my dad has- matching! I won't buy any branded gear unless it is a cool design/humorous. Hence all my top gear stuff :lol:
 
Oh emm gee that AT-AT shirt is forking awesome.
 
Dammit England, quit hogging all the cool shirts. :shakefist:

And yes I would be interested in buying one if you pick some up, PM me sometime. I'll pay for shipping and whatnot, obviously.

Is there anything that doesn't annoy you, or must be met with criticism because it does not meets your standards? :dunno: Really, you are a very negative person.

But I suppose that is the internet; tell someone in the flesh their personal choices are idiotic and possibly get punched in the nose, say it on the internet and expect only verbal repercussions you can selectively examine or ignore.

Not like I have ever been a jerk here, to be fair...<_<

I'm a medium, nothing to be embarrassed about yet. :D I'll look ok in large but anything XL or bigger will look like a beach towel on me. Though England doesn't have fat people, right? ;)
 
I used to own a bunch of those cheesy car shirts when I was little, but right now, all I have is this...

Puma Ferrari SF Supersqualo Low GT

That's a new one I haven't heard before. Usually when you have something of the form "______ is made almost entirely of fat people" the blank contains Americaland.
 
A few days ago I saw someone wearing a Haynes R2-D2 repair manual shirt. I thought it was hilarious.

I've always thought Land Rover had a rather tasteful line of clothing.

Soylent Green is made almost entirely of fat people.

Back on topic, I'm curiously unconvinced by EVO's new tshirts :

I wouldn't say no to one of these, though :

Some select Kohl's also sell Star War shirts; a person I know (who by the way is building a fully functioning 1:1 scale R2-D2) has the Star Wars "Awesome" shirt.
