Your Empire Needs You!
Probably my fav star wars t-shirt ever, the only problem is I can’t find where to buy it any more, used to be carried by Leapstore in the UK but they stopped carrying it, I’ll pay $50 to $100 for it depending on condition. Originally blogged here and a version from Chunk Design here (not as good a design IMHO although I’m not sure who’s is the first)
Boo Boo Walker from Goapeshirts
A great design from Go Ape Shirts, comes in a T-shirt or a hoodie, and i can confirm the quality is really nice.
Air Wookie – Upper Playground
There are not enough t-shirts in the world with Wookies on them IMHO so Air Wookie from upper playground fills an important niche.
That’s No Spoon by the imitable Tom Burns
Tom Burns deserves some serious props for his designs, from the communist party to this, all his stuff just works. That’s No Spoon in particular just works on so many levels.
Ping Pong Vader
A great design from Oddica
Metal Vader
Metal Vader is actually official merchandise from starwars.com designed by Chunk Design
Surfing Stormtrooper
also from starwars.com
I’m The First Of A Clone Army
and one for the kids from squirtshirts
As a bonus on this post here are a couple more designs/ideas that should be Star Wars t-shirts.
First off, Che-Bacca,
this got hundreds of votes on threadless, and the voting ended in December, so where the hell’s the t-shirt?
and of course this version that was posted to a forum 3+ years ago
why the hell isn’t this already a t-shirt? I’m just thinking of ripping it off as a public service as the world is a duller, flatter, less interesting place without this t-shirt (it was posted to boingboing as well so it’s not like people haven’t seen it)
And here’s some inspiration for a t-shirt
Some honorable Mentions (from the comments)
Han Shot First from Think Geek
The Dark Side of the Garden from Threadless
Che-Trooper
Another awesome Che parody, I love these.
At At Crossing and Destroyer Mobile by Bret Chambers
Kooper from Domestic Apparel
The kiss troopers, awesome!
Sand Wars from Threadless – Go vote for it
Han’s Solo from Ironic Corporation
A little shameless self promotion, Darth Pez is a new shirt in my line based on a linocut from our artist friend Eric Rewitzer. It’s hand screened on an American Apparel silver t-shirt and it’s currently on sale for $18.

I know it’s overplayed at this point, but I still think Dark Side of the Garden from Threadless is one of the cleverest Star Wars tees around. Never fails to make me snicker.
What a great collection of Star Wars tees. Run R2 Run was particularly funny. And the Metal Vader totally rocks man!
I like that shirt as well actually, for some reason it didn’t cross my mind when I was writing this. Thanks for pointing it out.
i love you because I’ve seen you wear a number of these shirts…often.
I just recently bought the “Your empire needs you” t-shirt in a small store here in Sweden. The label in my shirt says Seventy Seven, and on their homepage, http://www.seventyseven.co.uk/stockists.htm, they have links to some online retailers who carry their stuff, for example this one: http://www.arkclothing.com/Ark_Male/Shop_by_brand/77/77_Storm_Trooper_T_shirt4.html
Not the same color as in your image, but still..
How could the Han Shot First shirt not be on this list?!

I’ve gotten some excellent ones from Bret Chambers
http://myspace.com/bretchambers
My fave is the “AT-AT Crossing”.
Hey Chris, those shirts from Bret are awesome, thanks for sharing those.
I have both of these shirts (che trooper and dj-d2) from urban medium, and always get comments from people about their complete and total awesomeness:
http://www.urbanmedium.com/store_clothing.html
dj-d2 is sold out unfortunately… hope they do a reprint.
Hey I do some stuff with a clothing line that has the best star wars shirt that is not on this list check it out http://domestic.ca/images/kooperBLKfull.jpg that one kills it.
Hey Themyth, getting a 403 error when I try to view that link?
Wotulookin-at is my particular fave
Wotulookin’at – Thats a killer!! Metal Vader – Sweet!!
I also gots a STAR WARS related tee – on me Totally rilla website!!
Check it troopers!!!! APE TROOPER – http://graffitiape.com/detail.php?id=APETROOP1
The backprint says – MAY THE APE BE WITH YOU – Doesn’t have the image on the web yet!!.
oops.
I’m with Jeremy, DJ-D2 is oneof my favorite shirts. People LOVE it.
http://www.urbanmedium.com/images/store_detail_djd2.gif
Although I disagree about it being reprinted. As i bought it knowing it was limited edition, and a reprint would make me feel kind of robbed.
I’m doing a sleeve of stained glass pictures of star wars characters. Just finished Han and working on Lando now….
As far as the shirts I like the Wotulookin-at
love the clone baby shirt
This is my new favorite. It combines the Boba Fett skull with the Misfits Crimson Ghost!
Sorry that last comment had the wrong address.
The shirt is at myspace.com/fettsnet
These Sith Girl shirts make most people giggle.

I have a few StarWars Baby Onesies that I have made. Check them out!
click my name or just just go here to Check them out! http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Wars-Theme-Baby-Onesie-Baby-Fett_W0QQitemZ230064969449QQihZ013QQcategoryZ57873QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem
I gotta agree with Phil Laboon (#15) Wotulookin-at is most definitely my fave; I would take on the death stars in a TIE defender just to have it ( it would be nice to have the rest too, due to the troubles I would have). By the way, post a picture or link to a picture of your sleeve of stained glass pictures. I would love to see it.
Don’t forget the original Han Shoots First T-Shirt:
http://www.hanshootsfirst.org/index.cfm?event=buyShirt
i have 1 i like its plan black and on the front in white writing “DARTH VADER WAS FRAMED” always gets a laugh
You forgot “Jawa-Que” from Lucky Threadz also.
And “Abuse the Force”
These Star Wars shirts are great. My new company sells a new Star Wars shirt design that’s guaranteed to please, entitled “Han’s Solo”. Hmmm, can you guess what it’s about?

The Ironic T-Shirt Corporation
Hey, a great collection you have here. I found two more:
http://www.shirtlog.com/2007/06/my-son/ (from shirtstain) and
http://www.shirtlog.com/2007/06/jawa-que/ (from luckythreadz)
keep up the good work!

These are really great! My favorite is Wotulookin-at, that little girl looks like she’s about to swat it’s nose with a newspaper.
Sorry bout the bad link (karl) guys. http://www.domestic.ca/koopBLK.htm this should work.
I don’t usually call out biters, but since you’re calling it one of your top ten, here’s my graphic from 1998 -

This design is great, too, though it may need some explanation o those who don’t speak French:
Jet d’Ail is a homophone of “Jedi” (in French it is, at least). Its translation is “throw of garlic”
Good against Sith vampires, as the designer remarks…
Good site – you\’re a pretty good writer.2
These are so cool. I love the little Darth Vader in the sandbox.
Hello,
I’m living in France. I adore those star wars t shirts. Where can i buy them. Is there any web site ?
Thanks for the answer.
Bye

I like this one a lot, though they spelled “Bocce” wrong and Tosche Station isn’t staffed by jawas… If it got fixed up a bit I’d wear it proudly!
