Yeah I have a hat for BO4 that is dark grey and just has the IIII logo in black in the front. Subtle, and fits quite well. That's all I have though. Oh wait, no I have a grey Overwatch jacket that just has the logo embroidered on the left chest. That's nice, too. I don't like anything too garish or "IM A GAMER LUL"

This is the only one I wear. The logo is actually hard to see and that's why I like it (only people who pay attention will notice it).

A majority of my t-shirts are gaming related. Most are bought from the Yetee during AGDQ/SGDQ time

Hell no.

People can wear what they like, I don't care.
But almost any piece posted in this thread is terrible, sorry.

I just hate clothes with prints and stuff^^

I was once wearing a borderlands shirt (plain yellow with the vault symbol in the center) and some guy looked at me and went like "Anarchy? what do you know about real Anarchy?!"

Well for one, i know what the anarchy symbol actually looks like.

I have a few game or game-related tshirts that I have no qualms about wearing in public, provided I like the graphic on it.

Nope, I don't want to be associated with "gamers", and most gaming related clothing is incredibly takcy and/or childish.

Having said that, I wear what I want so if I did see a gaming related shirt that I thought looked really good I'd probably buy it. Just haven't seen one yet.

I have some Final fantasy, Mario, and Earthbound shirts

Im 32, married, and have kids.

If I like em, I wear them. Judgemental assholes deciding the kind of person I am based on wearing things I enjoy can go fuck themselves.

I picked "no," because I don't, but hypothetically I'd wear something game related that looks like regular clothing.

The only gaming clothing i ever owned was a Castlevania shirt that came with Lords of Shadow for some reason. It was just the normal edition. I think the dude at the shop just wanted to get rid of it. Because it was hideous. I don't think i ever wore it though.

Nothing against gaming clothing btw.

I wear some Destiny shirts. I used to wear a Doom shirt, but it's not advisable given my current living situation. I have a Homeworld logo shirt, but it shrunk in the wash. Too short. Never buy 100% cotton. :(

This is the only one I wear. The logo is actually hard to see and that's why I like it (only people who pay attention will notice it).

yo is that a tri-blend? Where'd you get it?

I have a few I wear occasionally. I don't care what people think of me, so I'm not embarrassed to wear what I want.

Not really, it would have to be subtle/power level hiding and most of the clothes I've come across don't fit that category.

I bought my son a Playstation shirt from Gap though that just has the symbols on it.

Generally not.

But I have a CDProjekt hat that my colleague got when visiting their studio. I like it, because it's not a consumer product and it's quite subtle.

Yep, and I don't care what others think. It's my body, I'll wear what I want on it.

Got mine from target.

I got my N64 shirt from JCPenny. That shirt was flying off the shelf and I talked to a couple of people needing help finding their size. I wore it so much over the last two years it's super faded and starting to get holes. I'm totally gonna find a new one though.

I don't but there's nothing wrong with it, and some video game logos are pretty popular in the street wear trend.

Video game apparel usually features heavy branding, logos and primary colors which are all big no-nos for my current wardrobe.

Not sure where in the spectrum this fits:

Also wear one with the Valkyrie Profile sigil in white over a black background

I have a shirt that says "my joystick is down here" and there's an arrow pointing down toward my crotch but that's all. I think a lot of "gamer" shirts can be a bit obnoxious or crass so I tend to avoid that kind of stuff.

No, my wardrobe generally doesn't include clothes with brands or logos on it. But even as a kid I rarely wore game-related shirts

Most of my t-shirts and hoodies come from Fangamer these days, but most of the time people don't even realize they're gaming related. Not that I'd care either way if they did. They're comfy as hell and I like the way they look, so I don't give a shit if anyone else would think they're ugly or that I'm too old to wear them or whatever.

I wear dev team shirts for some of the games I've worked on. I also have a few other shirts that tend to be more low-key with the references so they don't stand out too much.

Yeah. I'd say most of my shirts are gaming or anime related, and I wear them out in public all the time. Never get odd looks or nothing. It strikes up the nice occasional conversation and they look cool so it's a win win in my books.

I quite recently bought Witcher t-shirt, so yeah. Before that I haven't had any gaming apparel for long time. But I used to have Mario clothes and a backpack as a kid. I also wear band shirts, Metallica Kill Em All shirt and Led Zeppelin one.

Edit: Not me in the picture ofc, but looks like this.

I am a big fan of wearing intra-diagetic clothing. So it is clothing from the universe, but not clothing about it.

Like this

I literally have a black shirt with a big red R.


So I guess, yes. It's usually that, though, something referencing a game or with nice art, falling between numbers 2 and 3 in the OP. Wouldn't touch #1 with a ten-foot pole.

The only video game shirt I wear nowadays is a Street Fighter II shirt I got from Target within the last year...I get random nostalgic 'SHORYUKEN!' shouts from people while wearing it.

That's awesome people randomly yell that at you lol. I have a Super Mario World t-shirt that features in-game pixel art of Mario on Yoshi that I wear. I purchased that from Target too. That's the only gaming clothing I have. I would wear more if I came across t-shirts that had designs that I like more more often.

Yes I do wear clothes related to video games / anime / comics but usually with enough wit/funny spin on it that it looks cool and not dorky/a billboard-man/an advertisement.

Also I work as a physician so I wear whatever I want even at work.

I regularly wear these

Well yeah give my five I also have these that I rock proudly, with the related backpack :

My wife is sick of it. I bought another one to distribute the wear.
