G8 Brand is having a 40% off sale on yummy threads photo

I was interested in G8 Brand when I first saw their unique shirt designs, and shortly after converted by wearing them. They're softer than a kitten's soul and the clean, streamlined designs are awesome; one of my biggest pet peeves lies with gamer shirts with dumb slogans. They were running a Friends and Family event that would offer a 40% discount on all apparel up until November 7th, but they have extended the event to Friday, November 9th for Destructoid readers ONLY. How's that for service?

If you want to get some delicious threads, head over to G8's homepage and get shoppin'. Use the code FF40 at the end of your transaction, and you will get the discount taken off of your total sale. Space is my personal favorite, but they don't have it in women's sizes just yet, so I'm off to grab myself one of the Shred It styles before they sell out. Sexah!

I don't see what's so great about designs involving their logo being repeated for 10 different shirts. Are they really really nice shirts material wise or what? What's the big deal?

I agree with Doro. I'm sure the hipster crowd eats it up but most of them have nothing to do with gaming. I get the feeling these guys haven't really played games before, but they said "OH HAY RETRO IS COOL LETS SLAP SOME ATARI GRAPHICS ON A SHIRT" I do have to admit the Astro one is kind of cool, but I don't think it's something I would wear.

Speaking of gamer clothes, I really want to get that red Megaman track jacket for the anniversary, but you can only get it in Japan.

If anyone has info on where to get one, PM me.

Kudos to them though for extending the offer to the Dtoid community. Even if I personally don't like the style of the shirts that's awesome for them to do that.

I buy my gaming shirts on ebay, for far less, and not cheesy slop. Real vintage nintendo shirts. Like this one from this morning:

What i take away from the ad is that gamers look better naked than wearing their shirts.

Don't those circle things need to be cut so tuna and dolphins don't get caught in them?

40% sale? So when they finally realize those fugly shirts were not selling? Sorry but I get WAY better shirts at karmaloop or urbanoutfitters. And FYI Hot Topic has been selling 8bit desings since forever...

Sorry G8 but the princess is in another castle *roll eyes*

question: how much was Destructoid paid to shill t-shirts?

don't get me wrong, I don't mind advertisements, but as an actual article itself? lame.

I have to say, if I had money, I'd buy a bunch of these. Shame that even 40% off won't work right now.

I mean no disrespect to these guys, but I could make these myself at a fraction of a price. I know a lot more goes into pricing than that, but really, I don't think these 10-minutes-in-Illustrator designs on plain tees are worth $30...

They have 15 T-shirt (4 for women, 11 for men), 2 hoodies and a PC Travel Case. 4 of the T-shirts have something to do with gaming. 2 have Bill Gates plastered on the front like they're having a pop at the system. All of them have their logo splattered everywhere like they think it should mean something to us.

They are the system.

I appreciate the fact that you're bringing a "bargain" to our attention, I just don't think, personally, that their stuff is good.

At all.

And I dearly hope that this advertisement was purely based on personal affinity with the clothes, rather than, as suggested above, some sort of sell-out.

I'd expect better.

p.s. atheistium?: The 40% off is what he's covering up. THERE'S NOTHING THERE!! =O

I'm not sure society would let me like women anymore if I wore one of those shirts. Bill Gates sure is dreamy though.
