Another tee with the accurate "This is what Awesome Looks Like!" slogan on it. This time, it uses a shiny sliver tone paint for the slogan. It has classic arms-crossed Sonic in the middle of a blue ring with white stars. It's good to see the use of creative inks instead of that shabby looking 'weathering', but do keep in mind that some specialty inks don't wear well, and some don't even last. If you plan on buying a shirt with fancy detail such as shiny ink, fuzzy ink, or glitter on it, never put it through the dryer (hang it up) and use a washer-delicates-bag for the washer. Either that or the safest option is merely collecting/displaying it.
How did THIS tee get past quality control?
Sonic has never been a series about fart gags & toilet humor. Anyone who wanted that should look for Dr. Slump, not Sonic the Hedgehog. So what's up with this tee? They used classic 'laughing pointing Sonic' & added the text "Pull here for a Sonic Boom!" which is meant to be a re-arranged version of "Pull My Finger & I Will Fart". Now, why finger pulling was thought to cause gas is just one of those old fashion grownups superstitions which has no apparent explanation--unlike say, beans or cooked cabbages which are the general folksy 'culprit' of such things.
This shirt is at Sears (boys/teens) but is very un-Sonic-like.
This red tee is another classic style, with weathering to the design. It has finger wavin' Sonic in a black circle & the slogan "Step Up Your Game" written in yellow around it. The slogan is decent, and it is new. However, the shirt's design is rather similar to several previous tees. A decent tee if you needed the slogan or didn't already have anything like it.
This shirt is available at JC Penny in 2013 & should be about 9.00 in the boys/teens section.
Here are 2 tees that are the same color of brown, & in mens' sizes. They're also "retro" style, with 60s type old script-like fonts & that sort of burnt-orange color for borders & graphics. The sleeve logo (classic logo, but in orange) is present on both tees. The left tee has 3 different classic style stock arts with the captions "Fast" , "Faster" and "Supersonic". The right side shirt says "Livin Fast" with classic running/doodle/scribble legs Sonic, all in orange tones. Ignore the pale stripes, that's sunlight from blinds in the photo, not part of the shirt/design. Where can you buy these?
This tee is from Jinx Clothing online in 2014. It's a clothing shop that serves adults, so this will fit anybody. Do note that this is the women's version. (there's a men's cut as well, but womens' cut tees are less common by far) That means that it is slimmer/thinner in the waist area so that it will cling to whoever wears it & likely the sleeve openings are slightly smaller as well.
The design is Japanese "getting ready to run" classic Sonic with the classic logo & grid background. It has weathering to the design. Since it's an adult size, it's more costly at 22.99 retail price.
