Startup Wear – New Shirts

Update :: This was an April Fools joke. They were designed by someone else.

At VC Wear we’ve just launched the most brilliantist(TM) idea EVAR. Since the first rule of branding is “Be everything to everyone” we are leveraging the VC Wear brand into… Startup Wear!


Ever feel like an exploding twitter bird? I thought this whole microblogging in 140 chars or less was supposed to reduce information overload. I’m looking at you Scoble and Jason Calcanis!

Orly?

Chief
Get your sharpie out. Handing out business cards is weaksauce. Get more eyeballs by wearing this shirt

Credit

Show the world that you’re up to here with these damn credits cards. Unless you’re lucky to be funded cause you’re chummy with investors you’ve probably incurred credit card debt. A lot of it!

Original Idea

We all know projections are BS – But everyone pretends like they know what they’re doing and all believe that they’ll make $100M.

Startups

A good entrepreneur puts his business over all other forms of life including girlfriends, boyfriends, mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, acquaintances and the shady guy that sells Rolex’s on the corner. Now you can take tally of that!

  4. These shirts are original designs created by StartupWear.com — not VCWear.com. Be sure to provide credit to the original designer and don’t appropriate content that is not your own. Very cool designs though!

  8. Hey guys! Being the designer of all of these shirts, I find inspiration everywhere: nature, my computer table, the cat outside my window etc…

    As such, I’ve found this post to be most inspiring! Here’s a shirt that’s been born from this: http://startupwear.com/shirtidea.html

    Thanks!
