The “Totally Real” History of Are You Shirtin’ Me?

Once upon a time—because all good stories start that way—a visionary entrepreneur (that’s us) sat in a dimly lit basement, surrounded by laundry piles and a single flickering lightbulb. After hours of intense philosophical debate with a talking sock (we called him Carl), the question was posed: “Why isn’t anyone making shirts that are genuinely hilarious, but also borderline absurd?” Carl nodded sagely, and thus, Are You Shirtin’ Me? was born. Groundbreaking, right?

Our journey to global T-shirt domination was nothing short of heroic. There were sleepless nights spent stitching puns into fabric by candlelight, heated board meetings with our pet goldfish (don’t ask), and of course, that time we almost got taken down by Big Serious Shirt, who couldn’t handle the heat of our designs. But through it all, we persevered, armed with nothing but our wit, sarcasm, and an overwhelming desire to make strangers laugh awkwardly in public.

Today, we stand as a beacon of hope for anyone tired of bland wardrobes and uninspired cotton blends. Sure, some people say we’re “just a T-shirt company,” but we prefer to think of ourselves as cultural trailblazers—like the Renaissance, but for fashion and memes. So, welcome to the revolution. Grab a tee, wear it proudly, and remember: Carl the sock always believed in you.

So here we are, ready to outfit you in the funniest, most conversation-starting tees the world has ever seen (probably). And because we’re feeling extra festive—and because Carl said it was a good idea—you can save 20% storewide for the holidays! Visit https://areyoushirtin.me/ to join the revolution. Your wardrobe will thank you. Carl will, too.
