Wear your power-up on your sleeve

By now, "vintage" pre-shrunk gamer t-shirts dominate the men's section at Target. You know, the kind with a carefully faded Mario graphic or an uncouth reference to a joystick? We've already seen a billion video game cliches manifest themselves in 100% cotton on the chests of those who don't know any better, but there is hope for those of us who choose not to look like tool bags. Not only are some of the fashions below one-of-a-kind, most are femme-friendly, and you'll never find them in your local department store. We hope.

1-Up Mushroom Scarf

Have you ever wished that life was as simple as a side-scrolling video game? Well, now it can be! (Sorta.) This made-to-order scarf by Urban Princess is an instant pick-me-up to combat cold weather and Koopa-Troopa's alike. It's a tad pricey, but as far as winter accessories go, at least it doesn't contain the hides of several different woodland creatures. Etsy Clothing


Bob-omb Tee

This father-son owned company unleashed its line of Nintendo-inspired clothing in '07, featuring old-school design logos that'll make you wax nostalgic. In addition to their super high-quality t-shirts, they also have hoodies and expertly crafted jackets, too. Nothing like a gigantic Bowser emblazoned on your varsity jacket to keep you warm at night.
