I’ve got some great Linux swag from Ubuntu Korea, but I’ve been looking to buy new clothes lately and would love to rock more FOSS.

I see a couple websites that sell FOSS branded clothing, but does anyone have good experience buying high quality hats/tshirts/sweaters/active wear from any of these online retailers? Bonus points if the retailers donate proceeds to development

    1. I can afford good clothes now
    2. High quality clothes last a long time
    3. Having a Ubuntu shirt is a good conversation starter
    4. I would rather have a Tux logo than a Nike one
    5. Giving 5$ to KDE makes gives me the false sense of real contribution to the project

        Not OP, but pure donations lack the “spread the word” aspect of wearing an advert on a shirt.

          Yeah but on the other hand infrastructure costs and they need money to pay developers and so on. Using FOSS is cool and all but it’s not cheap and free of charge - at least developing it that is.
