We’ve re-launched our Ars Technica merch store just in time for the holidays, and the response has been great—”Nuke it from orbit” mugs and Ars hyperspace logo T-shirts are flying off the virtual shelves.
If you’re pondering an order and want to make sure it arrives by Christmas, order today to avoid disappointment. Between the time needed to print the shirts and the time needed to ship them, December 11 is the final day to place most orders for Christmas delivery. Here are the shipping options that will still get your merch to you by December 25:
USPS Priority Mail: Dec 11
FedEx 2 Day: Dec 11
FedEx International Priority: Dec 11
FedEx Standard Overnight: Dec 12
T-shirts are $20 each; the smaller mug (11 oz) is $15 and the larger mug (15 oz) is $17. You can buy them here. Thanks for supporting Ars!
As a reminder, here are our three initial merch designs:
Nuke it from orbit
-
11 oz mug, front
-
11 oz mug, back
-
15 oz mug, front
-
15 oz mug, back
Sometimes the only way to be sure is to nuke the aliens from orbit. Direct from the Ars Technica Orbiting HQ to your kitchen cupboard, this spiffy mug features separate front and back designs, is dishwasher and microwave safe, and comes in 11 oz and 15 oz sizes.
This could be a real short trip
Wear your Ars pride in an understated fashion while making the leap to hyperspace. Punch it!
The understated design is available on Bella + Canvas 3001 unisex shirts in three colors (asphalt, deep heather, and white) and plenty of sizes (everything from S-4XL). The shirts are 100 percent combed and ring-spun cotton (except for heather, which contains some polyester). They run toward the fitted side—but aren’t as slim as American Apparel. You might want to size up if you like a loose fit.

Ars Attacks! What do these mysterious brains want? Why is the FCC warning citizens to avoid contact? And what in the world are they doing with that moonshark?
Our second shirt design is a touch more whimsical. It’s the same Bella + Canvas shirt as above, available in S-4XL and in five colors: white, asphalt, dark grey heather, red, and true royal (blue). You can even pick up a V-neck version!
