Top 11 Dinosaur T-Shirts

I think most young boys (and probably some girls) go through a dinosaur phase; playing with model dinosaurs, reading books about them, visiting museums, learning facts about them and boring their parents with them (did you know the T-Rex weighed as much as a double decker bus?).

In my first post for Tee-Junction, for all the dinosaur fans out there, here’s my top eleven dinosaur tees (in no particular order).

1. I Love Dinosaurs

$22.50 from Crazy Dog T-Shirts

If you prefer Megalosaurus to Manhattan, this is the tee for you.

2. Dinosaurs Against Creationism

$17.95 from Ban T-Shirts

Ban T-shirts never shy away from the controversial – and this t-shirt is no exception. Stick two fingers up at the “Intelligent-Design” crowd, by flaunting this clever anti-creationist creation (or by becoming a pastafarian like me).

3. Super Predator

$22 from Seibei

In a new take on an old design, David Murray here reimagines his best-selling Sandwich Dinosaur in an oversized print using discharge ink for extra softness. Get 10% off anything in store at Seibei, with the discount code “JMG“.

4. Ask Me About Dinosaurs

$20 from Busted Tees

A great ice-breaker at parties - just make sure you know your Archaeopteryx from your Archaeoceratops.

5. You Are What You Eat (That’s Why I Only Eat Dinosaurs)

$20 from Doubletake Clothing

I’m pretty sure this t-shirt isn’t meant to be taken this seriously. Don’t try this at home, kids.

6. DINO FRENZY

$25 at Design By Humans

Designer Mr Nicolo had this to say about his insanely large ten colour t-rex print: 

“I just wanted to do like a retro like dinosaur cuz I got funny idea of a serious dinosaur that looks funny with its colors.”

Whatever the reasoning behind it, it’s awesome.

7. T-Rex’s Busy Day

$19 at TopatoCo

A simple and surreal graphic - also available as a hoodie.

8. Safe Keeping

Unprinted at Glennz

No stranger to the community-voting system, designer Glenn Jones is giving visitors to his website Glennz the chance to vote on which of his latest designs become t-shirts.

9. T-Rex Drums

(From) $15.49 from Amorphia Apparel

If Nero fiddled while Rome burned, did T-Rex drum during the asteroid collision? Amorphia Apparel thinks so. This design is available in a range of colours, and with optional mushroom cloud. Hat tip: Tee Connoisseur.

10. Rippin’ Rex

£11.99 from Tam's Treasures

I’m afraid this one’s only available in kids sizes. But really, why? What rational adult wouldn’t want a trompe-l’œil T-Rex bursting from their chest? Or is that just me? Oh, just me? Ok then…

11. If History Repeats Itself, I’m Totally Getting A Dinosaur

$15 from Threadless

This terrific Tyrannosaurus type tee is new today at Threadless.

Here’s a dinosaur-related pop-culture t-shirt idea for you: A T-Rex riding a white swan.
