The Next T-shirt We'll Try to Personally Deliver to Gilbert Arenas

Yeah, FD is back in your grill with another t-shirt! And yes, it's related to Gilbert Arenas. Of course we know that Gilbert didn't coin the term "swag," nor did any of his Wizards brethren, but I can't think of another group of people so obsessed with the concept. First, they were rating the top ten swags in the NBA, then Gil was famously rating his own swag, and even Antawn Jamison (perhaps the most serious guy on the team) got into it.

But, more than paying homage to any particular player, we're celebrating the whole idea. After all, SWAG sums up the FreeDarko ethos better than any other four-letter word, with the possible exception of JEWS. SWAG = competitive style. It's as simple as that.

We're doing a one-time run of 100 shirts, all black ink on white shirts. The shirt will look like the design above, but with the addition of "FREE DARKO" printed on the sleeve. That extra sleeve printing doesn't come for free, kids, so we're asking for $16 each, including shipping. As with the other shirts, you can order them via paypal to tito[at]email.unc.edu. Include your size and shipping information. For all other orders, send us an email, and we'll figure something out.

looking forward to mine.

is wearing this to the court (might have to) and saying your phrase like wearing the band's shirt to the concert?

while the band shirt to the concert is definitely not cool, wearing the shirt to the court might be the definition of swag. (providing you can back it up of course)

to further that idea, what if after you give the shirt to gil, he starts wearing under his jersey during games, leading to him removing his jersey after game winning shots?

i'm holding out for the FD limited edition embroidered Dunks and/or allover hoodie featuring the entire suite of a certain player's tats.

however, i will settle for a nice flannel.

I think an all-over hoody with all the Style Guide symbols would be sick.
