Wear Zero Support
Since we started unraveling Project Enigma, we have been literally inundated with requests for Zero Hedge paraphernalia.
We have decided to give in.
No, the profits aren't going to charity, unless you count our bloodthirsty brand new ISPs as a charity.
No, we didn't make it in a sweatshop. (Someone probably did, although the cost to us indicates the sweat shop was likey the cafeteria at 1 New York Plaza).
No, it is not a good idea to wear it while sitting on Goldman's prop desk.
No, we aren't laughing at your termination from Goldman's prop desk after wearing it while sitting on Goldman's prop desk, we are laughing with your termination from Goldman's prop desk after wearing it while sitting on Goldman's prop desk.
Yes, you can have it in any color you want as long as it's black.
Now is your chance to wear Zero support... proudly.
(ZH branded shirts, coffee mugs, bumper stickers, flamethrowers and guerrilla squads coming soon)

Great idea! I hope more products to come.
Really would like it if PayPal is an option.
The letter Z is too cool of a letter to not be in your logo.
Like spell out the word ZerO and have the H behind that or something because few pages in people's web browser histories are going to start with a Z.
It also looks like "Ho" :)
Oh, and I agree with this Anonymous Coward that Z is a rocking good letter for a logo. Perhaps for a future iteration of cap, leg warmers, or yarmulka.
But Marla is a ho.......;)
Actually, we're all being treated like ho's by the gov so it's only suiting.
Hire a real logo designer...PLENTY of them out of work and will give you 100 differnt quality logos for a few bucks...
Id love to buy a shirt or two, but the current logo kills it. Big time. =\
Going to go buy another homestar runner shirt. THE CHEAT
TD - I already order my hat please keep up the great work.
Cap made in China out of fleeced American sheep :)

O is way to prominent. Anything with an O like that I would avoid. The H behind looks like an X so you got a hat that the O and Malcom X fans will really appreciate, they should sell well in Harlem. Sorry to be so negative, but that's what I see. I'll gladly wear and support ZH (not OH) any time and any place and look forward to getting some gear. Again, only my two cents. Hope you are not offended.
RH completely agrees with ShankyS - too thugish looking. Count me in on the next design. RH has had enough of O. "If you will listen to constructive criticism, you will be at home among the wise" - Solomon.
If worn, I fear some idiot would confuse me with an Obama supporter....
I ain't buying jack shit until you provide Zero Hedge soap complete with the Idiot's Guide to Making Napalm
Theta, boys and girls. Theta... recall the premise of Zero Hedge.
Sweetness! I was waiting for this Tyler. Time to go
PRIME TIME baby. Zero Hedge wristbands, t-shirts,
socks, condoms, yo-yos....Rock on!
The Zero will look less prominent I suspect since its printed on fabric.
Make with the tees, STAT! Please do the women's tee in something with a little shape to it, wouldja? (e.g., a little fitted in the waist). Nothing worse than a big, floppy tee.
How about some ZH feety peejays? maybe onesies? or ZH thongs!!! ZH boxers?
forget the "Z" in the logo; the 0 is perfect--mystical even 0=0
t-shirts next

Is the cap made in China?
I think Oprah has laid claim to 'O'...but you go for it, knock her off her perch!
Nice, seriously considering I will get one, you deserve some of my hard earned credit-based worthless fiat dollars in exchange for all the awesomeness you provide.
is that a joke I don't get? I really hope so...
Sure, an anti-establishment financial website selling hats is a bit surreal. But I want a coffee mug, so SHHHHH.
Logo looks as if you're an Obama fan
:)
i like the original red "zero hedge" on the blog and would LOVE a teeshirt in that design. after all, it was that one that got you started.
whatever the case, i'm glad that zh is doing what it is doing.
genuine kudos on the NYSE gig today....the sec "theinsider" was big, but a representative from the NYSE posting today confirms that there are some very, very interesting people lurking here.
keep kickin' ass guys
Looks like a logo for an underground secret society. I will wink/nudge at whoever wearing it. Perhaps a secret handshake...
How bout a nice thong for our ladies.
That could give a whole new meaning to "Zero Hedge".
Zero Wedge?
Is Marla the model? Some how I doubt the cuffs match...
As the old codger dual 200 MHz Ross hyperSPARC SS20 flashed on my terminal, "Soap does nothing for me. And a hat? Kid, I'm headless, FFS."
everybody that is seen wearing those caps will be picked up for questioning by homeland security. they will be interrogated about who this man is that calls himself tyler durden. when they say they don't know, they will be water boarded.
Tyler,
Congratulations on getting bitched out by Dennis Kneale just now on TV. You've gotta see the clip....Pretty funny actually. Like the new site. Keep up the good work.

great logo Tyler but I thought the first rule of Zero Hedge is that no one talks about Zero Hedge???
I think we have moved on to Project status... Fight Club was just the beginning.
Excellent website, sir.
Project Mayhem - you mean the Australian punk band?
I couldn't help but notice it said 'hats and bags' unless folding the hat in half counts as a bag, would it be fair to assume there is more on the way?
much more. hats, flamethrowers, ninjas, space monkeys... all en-theta'ed.
$25 for a cheaply made cap? no thank you.
are we in hyperinflation already?
Jesus
Clearly, you weren't paying attention.
Our high quality hat is made of sturdy, durable brushed canvas. We only carry 100% cotton hats for optimal breathing and year-round comfort. The adjustable closure with a low profile crown fits even the most massive quant-craniums with the adjusting tool (second prize in the Glenn Gary sales contest- not included with order). Ideal to show that you are less than conventional, but not so full of yourself you won't wear a baseball cap to the Opera or the third date.
Glenn Gary! Not the awesome wine seller in NZ? Hang on, that's Glen Garry. Bugger.
Maybe it is... but how do you know? Like all the "high quality" homes built since 2003. Taking the manufacturer's word for it on how it's sewn and assembled in Vietnam?
Anyway, my point wasn't the quality, really. Hats just aren't cutting edge enough for this site.
Maybe umbrellas? T-shirts and hats scream mainstream tool, not trailblazer. Seems a little disingenuous to go the human billboard route given the nature of this blog.
A catchy, few word, thought provoking slogan may serve the cause as well or better than a logo. Or maybe an easy to remember cipher that people will type into google and get this site as the top/only result

this shirt idea seems like a good way to make money good articles
Agree with those above; that logo sucks and good logo designers are cheap and plentiful. And I ain't payin' no 25 dollarydoos.
True. The logo must be improved before I'll wear the tank top to work.
How about a big picture of Dennis Kneale's face and the 0-H logo superimposed?
Also, need golf shirts for playing with hedge funds buddies
I like the golf shirt idea for men and maybe a sleeveless variety for women. Your new logo is extra awesome!!!
A 0 with a line through it is recognized as zero in many places. By now my negative reaction to anything that looks like an O is visceral. I will buy something anyway to show support. The logo does not do justice to ZH. I know some good logo folks if you'd care for some free suggestions.
The worst is yet to come with regards to housing. It,s all a huge bubble. recommended:http://investmintideas.blogspot.com
Agreed. "O" just doesn't fit my personality.
The revolution will be merchandised, right. Frankly, I worry this whole thing is starting to go to Tylers head ...
True, however trying to finally break even on costs is starting to get to Tyler's pocket. Good luck to us if we want to cover those selling hats.
Well if you want to make some money, I've got a great deal on some reit's I hear we're at the bottom and the only direction they're heading is up!
Buy today before they get upgraded and marked AAA!
OK, if cost recovery is the object - at least give us the option to pay $125 and/or $525 for the stuff - and I'd feel a whole lot better about it ... :)
It does look a bit like O for Obama,
like the bumper stickers that just said W
for George W Bush,
love the site!
This may be a good idea, and in addition a newspaper ad or maybe radio? lets get the word out!
agree the cap is lame. i'd buy brass knuckles with the word hedge on the front. goes with your fight club theme and the zeros are built in. good paper weight for the desk too.
The cap is not supposed to be what Calvin Kline would like to have you define as cool. It is supposed to be a statement. Exactly zero time went into its creation, however it will be the one thing I will be extatic to see a person on the street wearing for what it represents: that the Zero Hedge message is spreading.
nnnnnnok - If it will make you extatic, since you have more than very graciously assisted me, and since you, your team and site totally rock - I'll buy one for me, the wife and both kids. We'll man the south Georgia contingent. Can you do something about the O though? I also agree with the post above that the Z is very "useable" letter.
Thanks for all you do.
I'll be wearing mine in DC on the 4th, if it comes in time (supposed to).
Decals, dude. wave of the future. I know we're not privy to the new catalog shit but hows about you en-theta some car decals. Should make them subtly simple and revolutionary as I don't want to look like some asshole hawking Nike products, or any product for that matter. make 'em cheap too since I just dropped 30+ bones on your pimp hat
just a thought while we wait for space ninja monkeys. . .
Tyler. In what country are you now?
?
Tyler--Vistaprint does some pretty good stuff with good quality on the cheap. Also, my sister does some awesome logos and is a rebel herself. If you want some ideas from her let me know. She is crazy like that and probably would do it for fun.
PS- If you don't have $25 to pay for hat, shirt or bag then you're a cheap bastard and probably can't get a date and/or live with your mom.
Oh and I think if you use Cafe' Press, its set up like Print on Demand, its ordered, they make it and mail it, the difference in $$ goes to you.
Sorry if this feedback was already posted but please consider including ""ON A LONG ENOUGH TIMELINE, THE SURVIVAL RATE FOR EVERYONE DROPS TO ZERO" Under the Logo on the TShirts.
