#CHOKE4SCARS Giveaway Winners!

Dennis — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 13:31:28 -0500

We were feeling frisky last Friday and decided to have some fun on Twitter and Facebook. It had been a while since we did any sort of photo contest. The last one, which involved fans taking pictures of themselves as characters from the books as well as acting out scenarios, was a big success and winners got audiobook apps from Blackstone Audio.

This time, things turned grisly. The contest theme was to post pictures of your best scar. The five best scar winners get a Choke Tshirt! So without further ado, here are your victims:

'Choke' Tshirts Now Available

Dennis — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 14:58:56 -0500

Our Chuck Palahniuk Tshirts return with a vengeance in the form of this new Choke shirt, designed by Kevin Tong (@tragicsunshine). This is our fourth collaboration with Kevin and damn... did he hit this one out of the park! This is easily my favorite Tshirt from him yet. The design features Victor Mancini descending into the abyss of his own depravity. (see a close-up of it)

Update! We now have the shirts available in a 'variant' style, using just water-based colors, to give it a softer, more vintage look and feel. See pictures of those shirts here.

The shirts are American Apparel and are available in Mens and Womens in both Gray (Asphalt) and Blue (Heather Lake Blue). This all came together last minute, so unfortantely, at the time of my writing this, the actual shirts are still being printed. But if you want to place your order now, we can assure you that we will begin shipping shirts from Dec 11th on.

Order Your 'Choke' Tshirt!

Important Shipping Info: We ship our shirts USPS Priority, so U.S. domestic orders typically arrive 1-3 days from the date they are shipped. International orders allow 7-10 days.

Important Sizing Info: American Apparel was sold out of a few sizes we normally order. Therefore XXL and XXXL are not available for the Gray shirt, and XXXL is not available for the Blue. Hopefully we can get these in on the next run.

Take special note of the last question, where Chuck is asked about a possible collaboration with DC Comics.
