Philosopher Clothing


What should we wear?

This is the “Gottlob Frege: Begriffsschrift” A-line dress, designed by philosopher-artist Maureen Eckert and brought to my attention by Sara Bernstein. The pattern is also available on leggings. She also has clothing available with a square of opposition on it, such as this shirt.

These items are available on Redbubble, where, I recently discovered, you can find a surprising number of philosopher-themed clothing, such as:

Many of philosopher-artist Renee Bolinger‘s portraits of philosophers are available printed on clothing, too.

Also, some of the artwork by the philosophers who create the comic strips here at DN is also available in clothing form. Check out stuff from Pete Mandik, Rachel Katler, Tanya Kostochka, and Ryan Lake.

See some philosopher-inspired clothing online? Let us know, and include a link.

And maybe someone could get working on making a Hobbes shirt, like this:

I like my “David Hume: Rebel Without a Cause” t-shirt: https://tresnormale.com/products/david-hume (quick search turned up the Women’s version).

I’ve made a few. My personal favorites are “Alan Turingnator”, in the style of The Terminator movie poster, and Ernst Mach’s “View from my Left Eye”. A while ago, on a now defunct site, someone used to buy sets of 50 or 100 mugs as conference give-a-ways emblazoned with “Either Jones owns a Ford or Brown is in Barcelona”.

Looks like the brackets for the NCAA basketball tournament to me. Not to say not attractive… 🙂
