Crazy Shirts: Declaration Crew Neck T-Shirt

First to recommend

Description

As we approach the beginning of the Olympic games and, subsequently, the 2008 Presidential Election, I like to think about what it is that we stand for as Americans. This "Declaration" tee pretty much sums it up for me in a cool typographic design.

Title Nine: Women's Elusive Goggles II

First to recommend

Description

All swimmers wear them, but not all goggles wear the swimmer. They slip, they slide, they squish. Not these. These are comfortable for long distances, and perfect for those who like to take more than a few laps in the pool or water. The 2008 Summer Olympics will include an open-water swimming event for both men and women. And comfortable goggles will be a necessity. Representing the U.S.: Mark Warkentin and Chloe Sutton.

Official Beijing Olympic Store: Shaking Funny Fuwa Toy Set

First to recommend

Description

The Fuwa are the ambassadors of the XXIX Olympiad. Each of the five characters has a unique personality and positive attribute (in addition to being irresistibly adorable). They may turn out to be more popular than the athletes themselves.
