MKBHD Classic T-Shirt - $24.99
The cornerstone of any MKBHD fan’s closet. This MKBHD Classic T-Shirt is a soft everyday tee made from 100% ring-spun cotton that’s pre-shrunk, so it won’t shrink into a crop top after wash number one. The relaxed unisex fit works for any body type - perfect for layering under a hoodie or wearing solo when the dorm AC is on the fritz. The MKBHD logo is front and center but subtle enough that it’s a conversation starter, not a billboard. At $24.99, it’s the easiest way to rep your favorite tech reviewer without sacrificing comfort.MKBHD Premium Hoodie - $49.99
Sitting right at the $50 limit, the MKBHD Premium Hoodie is worth every penny. It’s your go-to for chilly lecture halls or late-night coding sessions.

If you can stretch your budget a few more dollars, this hoodie will carry you through four years of school.MKBHD Polo Shirt - $34.99
Need to look presentable for a job fair or a group presentation? The MKBHD Polo Shirt strikes the balance between casual and professional.
