I have been eager to feature this particular Threadless design since I restarted ISK last year, but I was holding off on the hope that they would eventually reprint it…and now they have! Most squid v. whale scenes usually leave little doubt that the whale is going to end up with a stomach full of delicious ika sashimi, but I have a definite feeling that whale sushi is on the menu tonight!

“The Squid vs. The Whale” is $18 (on White American Apparel tee) and is, at the time of this writing, still available in all men’s and women’s sizes.

Buy it now from Threadless!

Incidentally, I first heard about this shirt on the old Squid.us blog. All cephalopod aficionados everywhere were waving their tentacles with joy on January 12 when it rose again from the murky depths. Welcome back Squid.us!

2009 Holiday Shopping Guide: Apparel!

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

Today’s edition of the Shopping Guide focuses on cephalopod-themed clothing, but first, here’s our regularly scheduled installment of T-shirt Tuesday

Sir Octopus

Sir Octopus

Brand new from Sir Critter (who previously brought us Sir Squid), is this dapper fellow. He’s all dressed up and ready for your office Christmas party!

Shirts start at $15.99, are available in a rainbow of color combinations, and did I mention the octopus with a moustache wearing a bow tie and flourishing a top hat? Also, there’s just two days left of their big Cyber Monday sale! All orders over $40 are 25% off.

Buy it now from SirCritter.com

Threadless®

Art Is My Weapon and Loch Ness Imposter are back in stock!

Both are currently on sale for $12 each (all sizes and styles).

As we know, Threadless designs sell out fast, particularly when they’re on sale, so act fast!

Squidfire.com

I’ve already featured several different Squidfire designs, but I’ve barely scratched the surface of their vast selection of cephalopod shirts. They are all currently on sale (and all in stock, as far as I can tell), so any of them would be appropriate for this list. For example, here’s the SquidFire Emblem polo. It normally costs $32, but it’s temporarily reduced in price to $27. Buy it now from Squidfire.com.

The Squidfire emblem is also available on regular T-shirts (both men’s and women’s), long-sleeved thermal shirts (men’s and women’s), and hoodies.

Diesel Sweeties is a webcomic by R. Stevens about robots, music, and geek love. Looking for clever, ironic, and/or pixilated gift ideas? Then check out the Diesel Sweeties Store! These women’s knee socks—produced in cahoots with Sock It To Me of Portland, OR—feature an entire school of adorable cyclopian squid and are only $6.99 a pair!

Etsy.com

The Etsy community seems to be a nigh-unlimited source of hand-made cephalopod products, but for the purposes of rounding out tonight’s list, I’m going to narrow things down to neck ties only. Let’s begin with a rather familiar looking design

Continuing the “octopus as artist” theme from yesterday’s post, this shirt is part of the Threadless Halloween Sale, and it’s going fast!

Buy on Threadless…just $10 while supplies last!

UPDATE: While the shirt is still in stock in a few sizes at this time, the Halloween Sale is already over, and the price is back up to $20.

Sometimes you just can’t win.

Sometimes you have to let the monsters eat your boat.

Buy it from Threadless (Currently sold out!)

Also, this reminds me of something…

T-shirt Tuesday: “Loch Ness Imposter” from Threadless®

design by Ross Zietz

This is the first of many cephalopod designs from Threadless that will be featured on T-shirt Tuesday. I also think this was the first Threadless shirt I ever saw. I don’t own it because either a) I’m afraid the color doesn’t quite look right on me, or b) it’s never in stock when I decide the buy it anyway. One of these days it shall be mine!

Buy it from Threadless

Also available as a print!

Note: At the time of this writing, both the shirt (in adult sizes) and the print are sold out. However, it has been reprinted several times over the years, so keep trying…I know I will!

UPDATE: Threadless has reprinted this design, as of 8/17/2009. Get yours while supplies last!
