Would you wear a MAL shirt?
Would you believe your attachment to this website and what it represents is so big that you would want to wear a shirt to indicate to people on the streets you like it?
Would you even have your username and all?

As long as it design would be fine than why not?
For nickname, most likely if there would be possibility but I'd rather hunt for a hoodie and would most likely buy 2 versions, one with nickname and one without so for daily routine I would pick nameless and for conventions or other stuff would wear the one with my nickname on.

Honestly, a blue tee with MAL's blue and white logo in the front wouldn't look bad at all. It's just my face that causes the problems in this situation; I wouldn't want the good looking people of MAL to be represented by my dysgenic American features which have been produced by years of putting canola oil, soybean oil, and mass produced chicken grease paste into my body.

no, I'm not that shameless haha.
I don't want people I know IRL to know I use MAL, especially not to find out about my profile!
If I were to go to an anime convention or something along those lines then heck yeah!

Yes.

I would wear something made by a community I enjoy, about a medium I care about, to tell that story to strangers curious about it.

Not merch, something made by us.

See my topic about shame : you could all send me some ahego with your nick on it, I'd wear it with pride ;)

Honestly I'd wear it just to see if anyone recognizes it. Like I know MAL is a pretty popular website but still the thought of someone on the street being like wow you use MAL is kinda wild to me lol

Wouldn't put my username on it though. I post too much deranged shit on here.

Only if it didn't have any weird design or anime girls on it. It should look subtle and neutral.

Why not. If its cringy I can always wear it at home. Also at a point you kinda just stop caring that much. I only really dress up for work and social events. I look like shit every time I go to the store. Like I'm buying groceries not going on a date.

Just to be clear about why OP pinged me...

This comes from that :

https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2033045

So, I repeat :

This is NOT about some mass produced merch with a big ass MAL logo on it.

I do NOT want to sell this.

This is just a project that could be made by the community, as a symbol.

You know, we could stop talking about buying and selling shit from time to time, and enjoy bonds beyond that.

Just a thought.

Sure I would. I wear shirts related to all sorts of shit: anime, bands, games and gaming, movies, wrestling, comics. I love Black Craft Cult merch. I don't see why a MAL shirt would be a problem. I'd get one with and without my username.

Yeah, a symbol of the community, but more the members that go to the forums and post on Creative Corners. I literally imagined something of a proxy like MAL Signature, but that would print on t-shirts or stuff.
Though, because MAL has recently invested a lot in modernizing its user interface, expanding the criteria of entries in the database, allowing the phone apps to act as good social networks with club interactions kind of like Discord, being a convenient middleman between manga and anime shops online and consumers, having somewhat reliable news and frequent PR... I do believe that there's a brand to cash on, and mass-producing shirts isn't far from the possible for MAL's staff. The thought might have been there, but perhaps MAL isn't big enough or doesn't retain attention enough for brand attachment to be a thing motivating great investment from fans.

Nope, I would not want to wear a MAL shirt, for the same reason that I wouldn't want to wear an AniList shirt or a Reddit shirt lol. Personally, I just don't think that website names would look good on clothing. I wouldn't mind other people wearing MAL shirts though.
