Wow, did I just finish writing this article? I think I did. I better keep writing otherwise you’ll feel like you didn’t look at enough words today.

Tofugu Tshirts Are-A-Coming!

If you’ve read this far, you must be the type of person who wears clothes. Well good for you (can’t say that about most Tofugu readers). A couple weeks ago we tried out a tshirt service called Teespring, which lets you upload a tshirt design and then has a Kickstarterish method of collecting money from people who want tshirts. There were a couple of things keeping us from doing tshirts in the past:

  1. Usually you have to buy a ton of tshirts up front, guessing on what sizes people would want.
  2. You have to ship them all out yourself (Ughh!)

This service solves both of those problems in that your money goes straight to them and then they ship it out for us to each individual. We did a test run to make sure the quality was up to snuff (if you ordered a tshirt, you should be getting yours soon, I just got mine!) and they look pretty good. So, I guess it’s time for us to finally do tshirts (thank you to the bajillions of people who have emailed me in the past asking about it, your dreams have come true).

We’ll be posting about the next round of tshirts very soon. Our main thing is that we want to make tshirts that we’d want to wear here at Tofugu, so the designs may not necessarily be a Tofugu fish right in the center of a tshirt (that would be okay… but only okay). We’re thinking we’ll do tshirts on a quarterly or bi-yearly basis, depending on how popular they are. Right now there are two designs we’re debating on. Tell us in the comments which you’d rather have to cover your naked body so we can make a decision.

choose-tshirt

The shirts will be American Apparel, available in both men’s shapes and women’s shapes. So, if you were to buy a tshirt, which would you buy? Please let us know so we may make educmacated decisions on what tshirt to begin selling.

    I would love a tofugu shirt, but i have to say that i am not a fan of either..

  • Time

    First and I’d want them both! Why you make us choose?

  • mjc226

    Hey, I can’t work out how to get the ebook for free as it still seems to be $29 in the store – am I missing something really obvious here? Thank you!

  • Louis-Philippe

    I’d buy a shirt (hey maybe two !), but I’m not big on any of these two designs :(

  • John

    wtb kawaii morning pls

  • Jordan Santiago

    I’d much rather have the tofugu fish, actually. These two designs are okay though – if I had to choose on of these two, I’d go for the “Tofugu” text one.

  • Clarissa

    What a kawaii morning!

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=29619565 Mary Ann Moss

    I feel like there is something i am just not understanding about the kawaii morning, is this a reference to something? I would actually like a shirt with just the fugu on it.

  • Aiza Botezatu

    What a KAWAII morning is the best! Makes me feel so refreshed. But can you make some written in Japanese? that would be like AMAZING!!!!! (and I would exercise in the mirror to read it every time I wear it :p)

    WHAT A KAWAII MORNING ne???!! :D

  • Dolphinwing

    omg I would have to get the kawaii morning one, that made me crack up

  • Yeesha

    What a kawaii morning <3

  • http://www.facebook.com/calvin.qiu Calvin Qiu

    What a Kawaii morning!

  • ZA다ルﻣ

    hold on a minute, i thought this “what a kawaii morning” thing was supposed to be satire! why would someone want to wear something promoting such weaboo-y folly? i’d prefer something that doesn’t show such ignorance towards the language i’ve been studying.

    then again, i have a tendency to take things MUCH too seriously…^^;

  • missingno15

    Personally, I wouldn’t get either. I would consider one if it had the previous Tofugu logo (or Tofugu logo 2.0 is ok too I guess), and some fancy web 2.0 text saying Tofugu on it. I would just not wear the one on the right at all since its kinda embarrassing to wear.

    If it only these 2 choices alone and only these 2 choices, I’d get the Tofugu shirt on the left

    Kawaii Morning

  • http://www.tofugu.com koichi

    I have no idea either… but I can tell you now, I am losing a bet on which I thought people would want the most :s

  • http://www.facebook.com/joel.alexander.980 Joel Alexander

    Aye, I’m with you – I don’t think I’d wear either, but would go for the left-hand one if pressed. Incidentally, the one on the left doesn’t read “Tofugu” but “Tofu fugu”…

  • http://www.facebook.com/jazmintea Jazmin Martinez

    Tofu fugu plzz!! :D

  • Mescale

    I don’t like t-shirts, can you do it in a shirt style instead, also instead of either of the designs there could you just make it white with lots of frilly lace, double cuffs and an extravagant collar, the material should be soft and smooth to the touch, no pockets please. I’m 38″ chest and 15″ neck btw.

    Thanks Koichi you’re the best!

    Not crazy about either, but If I’d have to choose one, I’d go with the left.

  • http://twitter.com/enricobianco Enrico Bianco

    WHAT A KAWAII MORNING~!

  • http://www.facebook.com/odhrn Canis Lupus

    I wouldn’t buy nor wear either
    Though I daresay the “What a kawaii morning” would more likely be my choice

  • Anthorien

    I don’t much like either but i really *hate* the “What a kawaii morning* one.

  • Phillip

    Hmmm…. I like them both, any prefer the Kawaii Morning, but I’d rather be seen in public in the Tofu Fugu. :) Maybe the Kawaii Morning shirt can be worn on those kawaii Saturday mornings where I can stay at home all day? Hmm….
    Edit: Hey Koichi! In that picture on Twitter, your shirt looked blue. Why is that red? :’(

  • http://twitter.com/SicaTuyet Jessica Tuyet Ngo

    As long as it’s cheap – WHAT A KAWAII MORNING :D

  • Yuki

    Kawaii morning, definitely. <3

  • Bijoukitty

  • pachinks

    what a KAWAII morning!!

  • Yuume

    Oh. My. Kami.

    That “Kawaii Morning” t-shirt is SO SUGOI. But why are there only the dubbed versions D:

    Oh. I get it. So silly baka gaijin can read my t-shirt. OH I SUPPOSE IT IS WORTH IT SO I AM NOT CONSTANTLY EXPLAINING MY APPAREL.

    I would definitely purchase that one desu.

    When do the Koichiffany and Hashi body pillow release? I need company and someone to cuddle with whilst I plan out my manga-ka career.

  • HatsuHazama

    That. Looks. AWESOME!

  • Tora.Silver

    I magine the back of the Kawaii Morning one(my choice, btw) saying “DESU DESU DESU DESU DESU DESU DESU”

  • emma

    What a kawaii morning

  • John

    Why didn’t anyone let me in on the bet :(

  • Watarimono

    I know I have already lost by the comments below but I am voting for Tofu Fugu!
