You need to work on your apparel game.

Kinja'd!!!

This shirt is $36 USD

Let’s forgive your super generic looking font, the really questionable kerning, and borderline anonymous brand mark. This shirt needs some freaking work.

Kinja'd!!!

This shirt is $40USD

First off, no one has a body shaped like a tube. Ferrari knows this. Maybe it’s just your photography - but those cuts are abnormally straight. Second, red on dark gray vibrates. C’mon now. Third, this shirt is like a freaking billboard. Save that for the jacket.

In basically every single comparison, the Haas version looks worse than Ferarri, Mercedes, or Willaims. That’s unacceptable.

I kinda like the Haas one better.

Not too obnoxious, kinda minimalist, no brand names everywhere, understated color.

Compare this to Mercedes, where for only $261 you can become the proud owner of THE DEFINITIVE Lewis Hamilton Replica hat collection (including its convenient storage case).

You know, I’m tempted to get that.

That’s really not a bad deal. Like, buying 5 hats individually would easily be $250, Lewis’s name or not.

Yes but the Haas shirt doesn’t come with that “I’m an Accord driving douche bag who wears way too much cologne” aura that is mandatory with all Ferrari clothing

Get out of my head! I went looking for a tee when the team was announced and they didn’t have any. If I remember right, they barely had a website. I’m sure Toro Rosso would lend Haas a marketing consultant or two.

You kind of just need to accept that when it comes to F1 Merch, it’s like buying band merch at a concert.
