Inside peanut butter out side jelly
It's been over half a year since we first asked you, our loyal readers, to send in pictures of yourselves rocking the classic FD tee, and honestly, we've been a little disappointed with the results. You'd think with digital cameras and camera phones, we'd be drowning in them. There have been a few pics of celebrities like Will Leitch and Gilbert Arenas with the shirt and some dudes at the Pitchfork festival, but this is really more what I had in mind. Actually, fuck that, I could never have imagined our beloved image would be involved in such depravity. But, kudos all the same for the creativity.
So, let this be a reminder to you that the shirts are still available, except for the blue ones in size medium, which have been incredibly popular and are temporarily sold out.
Yes, I said kudos.

Grimy!
I'll be sure to snap a shot of myself rocking the medium blue shirt when i go to some magic games this thanksgiving break. If only i wasn't buying $10 tickets and could sit where darko could see me. I don't think i have a peanut butter attack story in me though.
i've been considering purchasing a shirt for a while, but was dead set on medium blue. this could be a disaster.
I was wearing ming (white, large) last week when the pizza delivery guy came. First he laughed. Then he tried to go into a long conversation when I wanted to just give him his $20 and eat my calzone + bread sticks.
"So you from Detroit?"
"Isn't he already free?"
"Big NBA fan?"
"Think the Kings are going to move?"
"Like Brad Miller?"
Next time I'll just have my money ready.
there will be more medium blues, it'll just take a minute on the reup, like maybe a month.
can i get one knee length? with no words on it?
P.S.
seven days of the week, seven different chevys
the recluse actually has seven different custom fd tees
i was pretty surprised that the shirt does not display the website.
i proudly rock mine at every opportunity and have been asked several times what it means. i say "it's this ill website, puts hoops into a cosmic perspective and you should check it out." the follow up question is invariably "what's the site's url?" to which i am forced to say "freedarko.com you dumbass."
long story short, just put "freedarko.com" somewhere on the shirt and save me some trouble.
Wandering around NYC in mine, I've had several people stop me and ask if the shirt refers to the cult film Donny Darko. I loathe those people.
I've also had several ask me if Darko is really in prison.
It's one of my favorite shirts, but in Japan, well, it doesn't get much recognition. Lots of shirts over here have random images and/or indecipherable 'English' on them. I think I just get lost in the crowd. (Favorite shirt, ever: Stunningly hot Japanese girl, walking down the street with an iron-on applique. Splash effect, with gold and silver sparkly bits. One word, one exclamation mark: CUM!)
About the URL, I gotta say, I don't think I'd wear it if it had a URL on it. Posting on a website/reading said website religously/wearing the website's t-shirt, sure, that's no problem. Wearing someone's URL? A little too geeky for my taste.
By the way, on the next round of white shirts, could you not add the stain attracting magic powder? I'm running out of stain stick.
