Amazon might be holding its annual Prime Day sale this week, but The Verge is hosting our very own promotion over on our merch store. On July 16th and 17th, all of our latest apparel and accessories at The Verge Store are 30 percent off. (Discount automatically applied.)
In case you missed it, we launched a new slate of products a few weeks ago, and we were thrilled with the reception. If you haven’t already picked up one of our new higher-quality T-shirts or sweatshirts — or gotten yourself a bigger and better Verge mug — now’s your chance to get them at a big discount.
And if you spend $15 or more, you can download one of our premium wallpaper packs for free if you add one to your cart alongside your purchases — no code needed.
Our new Monogram Tees, featuring The Verge’s logomark on the front and wordmark on the sleeve, are available in black and white. This new apparel looks and feels nicer than anything we’ve made before — they’re 100 percent cotton, pre-shrunk, and will maintain a consistent fit. Their minimalist designs also make them ideal for wearing in virtually any situation.
The Monogram Hoodie is made of 80 percent cotton and 20 percent recycled polyester fleece. It features a kangaroo pocket on the front — and when you flip the hood up, you’ll reveal The Verge wordmark right on the back.
The new larger mugs feature a black-and-white design, while the stickers have a slick holographic look. We’re very excited about both — but have we mentioned that the mug is bigger now? Because it’s bigger now. Not, like, Ajit Pai’s Reese’s mug big, but bigger nonetheless.
But wait, there’s more! You can also save on our latest product collaboration with Nomad. Our blurple sport band for Apple Watch is 10 percent off through July 22nd over on Nomad’s site.
We like nice things here at The Verge — and we know you do, too. That’s why we’re teaming up with a variety of partners to create delightful new products. Last year, we launched our first product collaboration with dbrand, and now we’re back with our second.
Meet the limited-edition Blurple Sport Band from The Verge and Nomad. Nomad is one of the best mobile accessory makers, and the company’s Sport Bands have particularly stood out among a sea of junky rubber straps. We wanted to introduce a new way for you to wear The Verge, so we combined our iconic branding with Nomad’s excellent bands.
The Blurple Sport Band is made out of the same high-quality FKM rubber that Nomad’s existing bands use. It’s durable, waterproof, resistant to oils, and easy to clean. If you use your Apple Watch to work out, this is the strap you need — especially if you’re pressing play on The Vergecast or Decoder when you hop on the treadmill.
The minimalist design is easily adjustable and very breathable, thanks to channels in the interior of the band. It features a pin-and-tuck closure to keep it looking sleek while remaining secure. The aluminum pin also features The Verge wordmark on the inside.
The Verge x Nomad Blurple Sport Band is available starting today for Apple Watches in 49mm, 45mm, 44mm, and 42mm sizes. You can order it now from Nomad’s website for $60.
This is only one part of The Verge’s new product plans. We’re also introducing a revamped merch store experience with a curated collection of higher-quality Verge apparel and accessories. Deck yourself out in The Verge by pairing the Blurple Sport Band with one of our slick new tees or a sweatshirt. We can’t say for sure that wearing The Verge will instantly make all your batteries last longer and your Instagram posts get more likes — but either way, you’ll look and feel great.
]]>We’ve made a lot of shirts, sweatshirts, and accessories for The Verge over the years. One of them said EMAILS in huge letters… for some reason. But none of them quite compare to our newest collection. We’ve developed a much smaller, curated set of high-quality apparel and accessories, all with one very simple goal: make great stuff, not just merch. We have some big plans for the lineup, but we’re really excited to show you what we’ve made so far.
You might notice the prices of all this new gear have gone up slightly. We’ve spent months trying to find the perfect balance of high-quality stuff and affordable prices, and we think we’ve found the best middle ground we can. And if you get in during our launch sale, it’s an even better deal — all apparel is $5 off through July 2nd (discount applied automatically).
Our new T-shirts look better and feel nicer than any we’ve made before. They’re understated, and that was very intentional. There are two designs: white with a black Verge monogram or black with a white monogram. (The Verge wordmark makes a cameo on the left sleeve.) They’re made out of 100 percent cotton, feature a ribbed collar, are pre-shrunk, and maintain a consistent fit.
The new gray Verge hoodie features an embroidered Verge monogram on the front. When you put the hood up, you’ll reveal the Verge wordmark underneath on the back. It’s made of 80 percent cotton and 20 percent recycled polyester fleece, so it’s super soft. For fans of pockets, there’s a kangaroo one right on the front.
We’re also offering two new accessories: a larger mug and holographic stickers. (The Verge’s David Pierce and Nilay Patel have been asking for larger mugs for months, so hopefully this will finally shut them up.) The new ceramic mug features a white exterior, black interior and handle, and two large Verge monograms, meaning you can see it — and show it off — no matter which hand you hold it with. The mug holds up to 15 ounces of your favorite beverage and is both microwave and dishwasher safe.
The Verge Holo Stickers come in packs of four and have a stunning multicolor holographic look. These are perfect for your laptop, water bottle, notebook, or really anything that you like to slap stickers on. Put a bunch on your new mug. We won’t stop you!
Today, we are also launching our second product collaboration with Nomad. You can learn more about our new limited-edition Blurple Sport Band for the Apple Watch here.
As we continue to build out the Verge apparel collection, our goal is to make cool products with partners we like, including more creators and startups. We’ll keep this line of essentials around all the time and then do limited-edition drops. We have some fun ideas about bringing back our favorite old designs, too. (We’re choosy about who we work with, and of course, these partnerships will never affect our coverage of these or any other companies and products.)
If there’s something you’d like to see us make or an item or design you wish we had on sale, let us know in the comments! We hope we see you repping your new Verge gear soon.

]]>It’s happened: we are excited to share that The Verge has partnered with the folks at dbrand to create a gorgeous line of skins for your favorite devices. You might have seen our teaser from the Code Conference last week, but we have lots more to tell you about. This is just the beginning of our partnership with the fan-favorite accessory company. Our first drop features two extraordinarily Verge-y designs: Monogram and Blocks.
Monogram features a stunning dark purple liquid effect that appears like viscous cells complemented by an extra-large clipped V. It has a subtle depth effect that makes it feel as though you’re looking into a deep void inside of your devices. Plus, we’ve created a cellular wallpaper pack so that you can match the front with the back of your devices. Monogram is the ultimate skin for longtime fans of The Verge.
Blocks is a repeating pattern that uses The Verge’s primary color scheme and features an endless sea of 3D shapes. Our signature colors — blurple, franklin, and pernod — join black and gray to create a unique look unlike anything else. It looks spectacular on all kinds of devices and delivers the iconic Verge feel without being branded. Blocks is perfect for feeling like you’re part of The Verge family while maintaining a minimalistic look.
Both Monogram and Blocks are available as standalone skins and with dbrand’s signature Grip cases. Skins are great for scratch protection while maintaining your phone’s original size and shape. They’re easy to apply and don’t add much bulk or weight to your device. If you want added durability, you can choose to purchase a skin with one of dbrand’s Grip cases. The dbrand Grip cases feature military-grade impact protection, tactile buttons, and are super grippy.
Skins are available for devices and accessories from Apple, Samsung, Google, Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony, Razer, Dell, Lenovo, Framework, and Valve. Cases with skins are available for most recent iPhones, Pixels, and Samsung phones as well as a few other devices. You can order our skins starting today.
If skins aren’t your thing, check out The Verge merch store for some rad apparel and other types of accessories.
]]>Decoder, The Verge’s podcast about big ideas and other problems, now has merch. Fans of the show where our editor-in-chief Nilay Patel talks to a diverse cast of innovators and policymakers will love this first wave of products that we’ve put together for them. You might have noticed the all-new Decoder branding in your favorite podcast app; it all feels right at home on hats, stickers, and mugs. You can check out the first three items below or head over to The Verge store to pick them up for yourself.
