what merch do you buy?

[Zyrael 1,471]

besides mlp products, when you buy a shirt, hoodie, etc. online or irl, what types of designs/merch do you love? this can include colors, patterns, or other fan art, and brands.

[idunnomaybe 344]

these are the brands im most loyal to

Clothing
i shamefully admit i wear way too much superdry clothing... it just fits me well its made for thinner leaner people and i really love the designs when i was a kid i would watch movies set into the not too distant future and want to wear that clothing and a lot of Superdry emulates that i do wear other brands but superdry makes up most of it 

suits
i'll get Hugo boss i prefer their suits because their suits are fitted free of charge they get you to try on a suit that roughly fits then they'll take your measurements and taper it until its fits perfectly which always look infinitely better than a cheap unfitted suit 

Cologne
Hugo boss i actually have different ones for different occasions

Fishing
Rapala not even up for debate expensive as hell but they make good quality stuff

Military gear
Platatac,
Tasmanian Tiger,
Sord

Watches
for work Gshock 
every day use tag heuer

Shoes
Vans im actually in a rutt with my shoe buying no jokes i keep buying the same Cyan Vans over and over i just don't like anything else but recently ive been wearing a pair of these Superdry sneakers which are made out of a wetsuit type material 

i think that's about it  

 
apart from that merch wise i don't buy much popculture stuff i'll buy something i think is interesting it could be a figurine a shirt a mug what ever

ive got a ton of mugs ranging from MLP and Half life to IT crowd and Pink Floyed

some posters mostly video game and movie related i do have one of those Celestia Obey posters but its not up atm 

clothing wise i have one pony shirt ive never worn ever mostly because its way too big for me a retro sonic shirt that i thought looked cool and a TF2 blue team hat 

figurine wise i have an ODST trooper Master Chief a Samurai which came with shogun 2 and that's it 

others i have a needler a mass effect assault rifle and i think that's it

All sorts of merch, I just get whatever I like.

Hmmm... merch I buy besides MLP merch? Well, I pretty much only buy MLP merch, but I do love to browse through antiques and vintage signs/posters. I have a huge poster for the 1933 World's Fair Chicago in a big frame in my room and a vintage Shell Motor Oil company sign as well. Someday I would love to get a huge antique Grandfather Clock and make it the center of my living room (I love antique clocks) 

Yes I know antiques and whatnot aren't really merch per say, but it's pretty much the only thing I like to sink my money into besides moar poni stuff. 

[Splashee 28,563]

I only spend money on old nostalgia stuff that don't really have any known brand anymore.

[TBD 17,254]

Just whatever I like I guess. Shoes, hats, other attires based on my fashion tastes. Out of these, I mostly shop for hats and jacket/sweater/coats. While other beside attires, any collectibles based on my favorite fandoms; mainly anime, Harry Potter, or Star Wars. I buy books/manga but rarely, it's has to be really good enough for me to buy it.

Buy dat, merch. Buy dat, merch. Buy dat, merch.

I sometimes buy a manga or comic

[Dreambiscuit 9,690]

I’m not really stuck on one brand or another. I just like what I like and whoever has it will get my money. Style-wise I like retro clothing which I get at thrift shops and custom tweak to my own specs. Most of my casual stuff is low-key with plenty of earth tones, but I do enjoy t-shirts with Disney or Star Wars on them, and I used to buy a lot of Her Universe stuff. For work I wear bright colors and pastels whenever possible. I like vests too because they’re stylish and have lots of uses, both as an accent and for the extra pockets. In the winter I go plaid and lots of it.

[Odyssey 5,716]

I collect figurines.

...Anime figurines to be precise.

I know, I am one of those kinds of nerds, lol

[Lucky Bolt 35,062]

Other than MLP, I collect NASCAR and Coca-Cola merch.   I also have a couple Def Leppard and Florida-Georgia Line shirts, as well as some Florida Gators and Salt Life merch too (vehicle decals and a couple shirts).

[Fluttershyfan94 5,742]

Something related to anime, music or cars so you know I get mugs with anime I like or statues sometimes, mangas or anime movies. Music band tshirts, I collect vinyl and cds yes. I have car related clothing too, not much of a consoomer most of what I buy merch wise is either car themed or anime that is. Though also video game related things, something to show hey I'm a geek or a nerd or anything really.

I collect music of all kinds, mostly CDs, and I like buying t-shirts, mostly music, anime, or MLP related, and any other miscellaneous things like mugs or whatever that are music, anime, or MLP related. But I don't really buy those things that much. I just make sure I get at least one music release with every pay I get. It's been a while since I've had money though.

[Pentium100 2,122]

The definition of merch I use in this post: everyday items branded with a certain logo etc (mug, shirt, plushie) or a purely decorative item associated with some brand (figure, poster).

If I use that definition, then I do not really buy any merch aside from MLP.  I have a lot of CDs, records, laserdiscs and other media, but I do not really consider that "merch".

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,377]

Almost nothing these days, mostly because there isn't a whole lot of media I have a huge amount of passion for anymore. Everything I was hugely passionate for has either ended or become terrible. Something else to feel extremely passionate about is all I want right now..

[Cagey 4,248]

I have some shirts for other cartoons or video games. And probably music. 

[Nara 84]

I guess for me it would be figurines? They look so nice on a display and some can have such a nice quality to them! Oh, I also love artbooks from games or movies! <3

[zerox 1,104]

I'm into technology and computers so I mostly buy tech related stuff. Other than that not much else. Years ago I did get some godzilla toys/figures and dvds

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,440]

The only thing I ever bought merch wise in the last year or two was a Stone Cold “What?” Shirt. And I got it at a pretty good deal too.

[DixonTheAdversary 1,632]

I'll buy stuff from my favorite bands, games, wrestlers, and movies/shows.

[Thuja 3,659]

I used to get shirts but I've lost interest in wearing print t-shirts outside so lately I've been collecting figures.  Mostly anime figures but I do have a few mlp figures(zecora, rarity and a few others).  I also have comics, graphic novels and art books, mostly from video games and avp stuff.

[Splashee 28,563]

I bought some telephone stuff that I usually do, however I was hoping it to arrive to my mailbox. It turned out it arrived to the Corona store in the nearby town. If I go there, there is a huge risk I will catch Corona. I decided to not go today, but I might risk it tomorrow. Very important plastic spare parts! Definitely worth the risk!

I used to be big on Kpop cds however due to iTunes carrying them for far cheaper(and lack of physical space.) I only buy Concert dvds/blurays since I’ll never see most of these groups live. I have a few photobooks but that got too expensive to keep up with(looking at you Twice.)

Jpop/jrock Other than Babymetal, Aural Vampire, Ayumi Hamasaki and Koda Kumi I‘ll only buy physical cds if I can’t buy them off iTunes. Typically those I have to import and wait months to receive. I do buy concert Blu-ray’s,when I can afford them and only if they are capable of being played in my region. I’m not spending that much just for a collectors item. I want to watch it.

As far as other merch goes for these I’ll buy tshirts,hoodies and hats. I have these special edition plushies an obscure jrock duo released

I buy Fnaf plushies,funko pops and the books. I also have Pokémon plushies. I have a large Sonic the hedgehog statue and some other sonic merch. Undertale, Hollow Knight and Stardew Valley plushies. I have a tiny box tim plush and a septiceye sam plush. I also have a huge Big Daddy Bioshock Plush. Used to have a replica of the splicer the Little Sisters used
 

I have some anime and comic related funkos and tons of fan art posters I’ve bought from different comic book cons. I miss being able to physically go to cons and support the local artists in my area.

All other band merch is typically clothing

Jurassic park merch. I have a 2016 Jurassic World calendar, DVDs and blurays of the movies, and six action figures (made by Hasbro oddly enough)!
