Success!!!

This is for you Jeff. We're asking and begging and pleading (and maybe even willing to pay) for some shirts!!!! We know you've got to have some hiding under your bed on top of your PING PONG TABLE!

enter image description here

Don't you think it's time to share with those that deserve it?

Perhaps to the newly elected mods, or maybe even all those that ran as compensation for putting themselves out on the line and under the microscope? Maybe for those that have been top users recently? Or maybe you can make them available for the rest of us to purchase (at cost and shipping :P)?

And you know what, us Super User's aren't the only depraved souls in the Stack Exchange universe. What about the gamers? or the Webbies? or the Super Servers? and the mathematicians? We want a T-Shirt revolution! And we will not be silenced until we get one!

I have a dream, where the Super User, the Stack Overflower, the Server Faulter, the Gamer, the Webber, and all equal SE site participant can have his/her own site T-Shirt!

This week, was the second week I went eating waffles without a SE T-Shirt. :( How much longer will we suffer?

    I just wish they made a webshop for Stack Exchange where we could buy some simple merchandise (like t-shirts) to promote the sites we love. In that regard @Popular Demand, I think it affects more sites than just SU

  • @nhinkle, you're right, unfortunately. It's been "in the works" since at least August of 2009. Mar 11, 2011 at 23:06
  • @Ivo yes it definately broader than the original trilogy. I'm devoted to the sites I actually use and contribute to, not so much to the platform which makes it possible. Mar 11, 2011 at 23:08

Effectively completed at

http://shop.stackexchange.com

EDIT: the SE shop has closed permanently.

Note that we will be creating custom t-shirts and stickers for each community over time, in a "special edition while supplies last" sort of way.

hint: if you are a page 1 or page 2 user on a given Stack Exchange 2.0 site, you might get something interesting in your mailbox one day

    Ouch. Delivery prices are high if the destination address is outside of the US. To Germany, 18$ is the lowested fee possible. Followed by 32$ 67$ 71$ 147$. 147$ dollar? Overnight per Concorde? Would it be possible to resell the SO hoodie from somewhere in europe?

    I've made this comment elsewhere, but it's time to outsource the SE shop to cafepress (or similar). You guys are sitting on a gold mine. Jeff, this is the sort of fun, easy task that's well suited for a retiree like yourself :-) May 2, 2013 at 20:05

Instead of just t-shirts for some of the top users and moderators, I'd rather enable all users to buy a t-shirt!

Why? The first time only the first 100 or so users of the Trilogy got a t-shirt, then there have been some other moments where they sent out small batches. But seriously? 100 t-shirts out of how many users?

By having some form of webshop, anyone could buy a t-shirt! and pay for the shipments all over the world...

This brunch was made possible by SOIS, thanks Jeff!

Don't we want Stack Exchange users all over the world to enjoy their waffles in their favorite t-shirt?

    I had my waffles this morning super user t-shirt-less... It was very cold and depressing :( Feb 8, 2011 at 17:53
  • There was a web shop at one time.

Yes

I'm currently wearing a virtual T-shirt...

enter image description here

But would love to wear a physical T-shirt instead, can you make my dream come true?

FYI: The T-shirt seen in above picture is not available in physical format and is not the real Super User T-shirt but a fan-based off-spin.

    I don't think anybody would recognize that as having to do anything with superuser.com - they'd just think you were a Linux nerd.

NO!

I believe it's time for full blown Stack Exchange merchandise and not just for a tshirt and a bunch of stickers

Some ideas found here

I'd like to add a black one to my collection (which exist of only 1 item right now).

Definitely promise to wear one to conferences :-)

While the Stack Exchange store no longer exists, the t-shirts themselves do! We still create site-specific swag when a site graduates, and send along a package to the top users. For generic Stack Exchange swag, there are a number of scenarios where we'll send along a t-shirt or stickers to say "thanks". You can't purchase them, but don't let that crush your dreams forever.

    "don't let that crush your dreams forever." But it's ok to allow a little, limited time, dream crushing? Sounds reasonable.
