If you're looking for a cool way to show off your love for Apple, a custom t-shirt is a fun way to do it.
A-Shirt.com is a t-shirt club that zeroes in specifically on Apple fans looking to show off their love for Apple products and their style.
In an e-mail to iMore, A-Shirt founder Cyril Pavillard explained his motivation:
It's a project I recently launched from Peru and mixes my passion for Apple with the goal to create a great quality and sustainable product (amazing cotton, great finishing, fully traceable product) as well as working with small artisans to create a really unique product for Apple fans, from scratch… it's not your usual "industrial" t-shirt, it's A-shirt, a fine t-shirt for Apple addicted fan, build from the ground up.
You get another new A-Shirt every two months. Each shirt includes a QR code you can use to get more information about its production and history.
Two subscription plans are available: A new shirt every two months, or a one-year subscription that includes a welcome package and a "one more thing" surprise in every delivery.

Show your Apple pride with custom Apple-inspired t-shirts
This is too cool! A new shirt every couple of months. . . . Why couldn't I come up with a brilliant idea like this? I need to replenish my t-shirt collection anyway.
Thx for the message. Not only you will replenish your t-shirt collection but will do it with a great quality ;)

I like the idea, but I don't know if I could justify paying $50 for a shirt every two months. It evens out, the "Just Addicted" plan adds up to $289 for 12 months, as opposed to the $299 for the one year subscription. So really, you're losing out on extras for not spending an extra $1 a month.

Well, actually for $299 you get 7 t-shirts along with a "One More Thing" every time. Also note the shipping cost is included in the price.
Now to compare with "standards" t-shirt and an average price wouldn't be fair, we really build each A-shirt from scratch.
All in all it would be like comparing a Mac with a PC ;) we don't use standard parts and just assemble them, we control the whole production process, giving us more flexibility and creative possibilities.

Very cool, but I've already got way too many t-shirts, including Apple-related ones.
But where was that photo taken? Wow!
In the district of Miraflores in Lima, Peru

Makes it easier to spot idiots
I was gonna say "Great way to look more basic than bleach," but I realized that showing Apple "pride" is more for hipsters. I don't currently show my love for any specific company, since I'm all over the place; I've got a MacBook Air, iPad Air 2, a OnePlus One as my phone, and a Pebble, so logos don't matter to me. Good products do.
Wait your committing on a Apple fan site, if your aren't a little bit of a Apple fan. Then maybe you should go Android Central or Microsoft Central. They have shirts that say, GOOGLE and MICROSOFT maybe you will like them better. Or you could get a Ninja Cat shirt for your love for Microsoft, I think it will fit you perfectly
Actually, I believe he was "commenting"... How's that autocorrect working for you on your hipster iPhone?

I think that "trolling " is the word you're looking for, and you should know about that based on past comments.
No, I wasn't calling wpdude a troll, but apparently you're insinuating it... Comprehension can be your friend, too...

No, he was calling cc3d a troll, and then you trolled wpdude. Comprehension is your friend, also..
No, you still don't get it. Troll.

No, you don't get it. A troll makes negative comments on basically any article that they read on iMore, and that would be you, and you have been for a long time. If you love Android so much, and don't like what is on iMore, then go back to Android Central. I'm sure that they love you there. :)
Thanks NadaAddict, some women I dated may differ with that opinion.
With nothing larger than XL, I'm not interested.
Jenny Craig... You can do it...

XL doesn't work when you are 6'4" and 225. Jenny Craig has nothing to do with it.
60 years old, and 225 pounds at 6'4"...you're fat dude... You're fat if you were 25 years old.

I'm 6'3"/200... With 12% body fat...
Wow, nice personal attack. Perhaps an Apple or Android inspired pacifier would've been more your speed.

He's nothing but an Android troll.

I like the concept, I wish I came up with it. I had Apple tee shirt ideas myself, but never went through with creating them. So I am glad they have managed to do it, and have a creative concept or gimic to sell them. We can add to our fandom of tee shirts we may already have, such as sports, movies, music, comics, food, & any other Pop culture reference you think of. I like idea they are work Sustainable in Peru. But with that said, I don't like spending that much for a tee shirt. I've spent a lot on concert shirts, and more than I should have at a concert. I hope the it works out for them, and if does maybe the cost for membership could come down.
Honestly a t shirt is worth 10-15$ tops. Regardless if it's Apple inspired or not.
Dammit, Peru.
OMG, they invented the iShirt! What's next?
