This piece of clothing was given out by the Little Brown and Company Booth at San Diego Comic Con 2012. Even though it is technically an exclusive item, the shirt is so ugly I cannot use it for anything but painting. I now believe it was intended to be truly "lousy", as it has an unappealing color, unflattering cut, and is at least three sizes too large for most people. I am sharing pictures of the front and back for anyone who's interested to see. (Please excuse the wrinkles, I tend to hide it in the recess of a rarely used drawer.)

I agree that the colour isn't particularly appealing, but I like the concept - that, and I'd probably hold on tight to any exclusive piece of Snicket merchandise.

Yes, I like the concept as well, I just wish it was- well, more wearable. I'm also hoping that maybe, just maybe, Netflix will make an appearance at this year's con and reveal some more facts/merchandise related to the show.

I've got the same one, except it fits me. I don't think it's actually that bad looking

"YL" size shirts can easily be used as skirts or ponchos, just open your mind.

I got one of these from attending an event in the WDYSHL tour. I do not find it particularly attractive or durable.

I have a few ASoUE promotional shirts from the Egmont days, and they were often pretty weird, too. One of them just has The End's bar code on the front...

Please. I haven't worn a t-shirt in decades. The idea!

I have a shirt with this image on it, which I remember was sold as a pack-in with the UA at Borders. It's long-since become significantly worn-out, and I tie-dyed it years ago because I thought that was cool at the time (I was 11), but I've held onto it regardless for sentimental purposes. Ah, here's an image of it in the original packaging (which I definitely no longer have):

A picture of a tie-dyed tshirt with that logo would make me very happy.

Hey, the t-shirt is not that bad! I'd totally wear it.
This reminds me I had the idea of painting an ASOUE/ATWQ t-shirt for years but never got good design ideas. That one chrono shared is particularly nice, I should check again Helquist's drawings again to see if I find something especially cool to do.

Almost forgot about this! As you can see, it's not so much "tie-dye" anymore as it is "pale, faded green". You can make out some vestiges of purple in the top-left, though.
