Star Trek Uniform T-Shirts

With the release of the new Star Trek movie I think we are going to see a resurgence of Star Trek merchandise. I have already seen a t-shirt somewhere that will certainly have sales driven by the release. I think the owners of the Star Trek brand will put a stop to most of it though like they did with the parody, Bar Trekkin’, recently. ThinkGeek, on the other hand, have an officially licensed top or several of them in various colors. So now you Trekkies, Trekkers and wannabe Enterprise crew can suit up in your favorite colors – blue, red, yellow or green for Captain.

“Four officially licensed shirts, in command-gold, ops-red, sciences-blue, and captain-green. Each shirt has a different “flex and flock” insignia, depending on the department, all of which are on the upper-left chest, except for the captain’s green shirt which places the insignia low on the hip. 100% preshrunk cotton.”

There are also a couple of other Star Trek inspired shirts that may or may not be licensed goods too but you would probably have had to have see a few episodes of Star Trek to get them. Yes, guilty as charged but  I stopped watching them about 20 years ago. God I’m old. Anyway you can check out the Resistance is Futile and Expendable t-shirts below.

Personal Soundtrack T-Shirt

I often thought that it would be nice to have a soundtrack. I guess the idea sprang from watching too many movies and getting my first Walkman. A Walkman (ipod for cassettes for those who are too young to remember) is like a soundtrack except only you can hear it. Also it isn’t that easy to change the tracks. I wanted something more. Music that followed me and reflected my mood at every turn. Like in some Hollywood movies. Well, ThinkGeek have come up with something that is not really close to that dream but it is a bit of fun. They have produced a soundtrack shirt that is basically a t-shirt with a speaker that can play music from its own player or other devices if you connnect them.

I think the tee is stylish enough even though I don’t think I’d wear a speaker on my chest. It is quite a fun idea though and I know its a bit late but it would make a great gift at this time of the year. Below is a video that I guess the guys at ThinkGeek put together to promote the t-shirt.

ThinkGeek do come up with some interesting t-shirts such as a chain mail t-shirt and an Electronic Drum Kit t-shirt. The T-Shirt Review also recently talked about a musical shirt tutorial. I wonder what’s next!

They cost $39.99 (batteries not included).

Chain Mail is the New Black

ThinkGeek.com are selling chain mail t-shirts. As hard as that is to believe, it is true. They even have them with two types of chain mail. They recommend wearing a t-shirt underneath them though as they tend to scratch. I would be worried about losing a nipple or hairs being ripped out of my navel area. The are priced from $99.99 to $199.99 and are truly geek chic. To be honest I can’t imagine anyone I know getting one of these but I7m guess there is a market.

The ThinkGeek Chain Mail T-Shirt is honest-to-goodness real metal chain mail hand forged by dwarfs in forbidden mines near the center of the earth and delivered to the ThinkGeek warehouse by shrieking black apparitions in the dead of night. Its bright shine and relatively light-weight comes from its anodized aluminum construction. It’s appropriate protective wear for most occasions including office meetings and parties you would rather not have attended.

Potentially Irritating T-Shirts

If you are one of those people who get irritated by people who love drumming on everything you are totally going to hate this t-shirt. This t-shirt’s design hides a functional battery operated drum kit so those finger drummers can get more range. The drum kit has seven distinct drums that are all playable. This is sold by ThinkGeek T-Shirts and makes me think that it is finally time to change their name to BeBigGeek.com. It costs $29.99, batteries not included. Below you can check out a video of it in action.

Even if I was a drumming fanatic I’m not sure I would want to have a battery operated t-shirt. And from someone who has put his own passport in the washing machine twice I don’t know how long this t-shirt would last.
