T-shirt, Cupertino. 859 miles and 180º from Redmond. (light blue, c. 2010)

This light blue t-shirt features the words, “Cupertino. 859 miles and 180º from Redmond.” on the front center printed in white in the Apple Myriad font.

The shirt is a reference to Microsoft. The Microsoft headquarters are located in Redmond, Washington, 859 miles away from Apple’s headquarters in Cupertino, California. The “180º” is meant to signify that Apple’s culture is opposite of Microsoft’s.

The back of the shirt features a white Apple logo at the top center.

This well-worn shirt is a Hanes Beefy-T brand in size 2XL. It was made in Honduras. I purchased this shirt at the Apple Company Store.

T-shirt, I’m a Mac (dark orange, 2008)

This t-shirt is dark orange and features the words, “I’m a Mac.” front and center.

The t-shirt is a reference to an Apple ad campaign that ran from 2006–2009 titled “Get a Mac.” Television commercials and print ads featured two actors, Justin Long as “Mac” and comedian John Hodgman as “PC,” against an all-white background. Wikipedia describes the ads:

“The two…act out a brief vignette, in which the capabilities and attributes of Mac and PC are compared, with PC—characterized as formal and somewhat polite, though uninteresting and overly concerned with work—often being frustrated by the more laid-back Mac’s abilities.”

The t-shirt tag indicates it is a Hanes Beefy-T brand made from 100% cotton in size 2XL. It was made in El Salvador. The back of the t-shirt is blank.

Although Apple sold a shirt with a similar design, this shirt was exclusive to the Apple Distinguished Educator program. I am part of the ADE Class of 2007. (The Apple Company Store version uses smaller text with the words “Hello, I’m a Mac.” and has a white Apple logo on the top-center of the back.)

T-shirt, There’s an ADE for that. (heather blue, c. 2014)

This heather blue t-shirt was given to Apple Distinguished Educators and features the phrase “There’s an ADE for that.” printed on the front centered in white text in the Apple Myriad font. The left sleeve features the Apple Distinguished Educator logo.

The featured phrase is a reference to the Apple ad campaign, “There’s an app for that.” The tagline was first used in a 2009 TV commercial for the iPhone 3G that depicts a user scrolling across iPhone screens selecting various apps for specific tasks. In 2010 Apple was awarded a trademark for the phrase.

The Apple Distinguished Educator program co-opted the phrase to describe and showcase the diversity, knowledge, and expertise brought by the members of the ADE program.

This shirt was made in Vietnam for District Threads. The size is 2XL.

T-shirt, The new iPod. (black, 2003)

This is a rare example of a dated Apple t-shirt created to celebrate the release of “The new iPod” (the iPod Generation 3) on May 2, 2003. Apple Store employees wore this t-shirt during the in-store release of the new iPod, and store visitors were given posters to commemorate the device’s release.

The front of the black t-shirt features a simple line drawing of the iPod Generation 3 that highlights its scroll wheel and four buttons under the LCD screen: back, MENU, play/pause, and forward. The screen shows the Apple logo.

The back of the shirt includes the stylized type “LIVE ON STAGE 5.2.03” in large size in the top-center, and adds a line of smaller text at the bottom-center of the shirt that reads “The new iPod. More than 7500 songs in your pocket.”

The t-shirt tag indicates it is a Hanes Beefy-T brand made from 100% cotton in size ADULT 2XL. It was made in Honduras.
