    Here's an interesting oldschool pair of sneakers. These have Sonic & Knuckles on the side as a sewn on patch of plastic-like material. Knuckles is a bit off-model, and not 100% stock art. The top-half only of Stock Sonic appears. They're accented by black lightening bolts and embroidery on the…

Gold Rings Crop Tee Tags: Classic Shirt

Here's a tee that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
It's called the "Gold Rings Crop Tee". However, you can easily notice that the sprite is (of course) the wrong one. When Sonic loses his rings, he doesn't die. That's the entire POINT of having RINGS. Is that you don't die when you have them. But, and it seems that the Sega Shop isn't immune to this, it seems everyone loves to use the "Sonic Death" sprite on everything they possibly can, so here he is, dying and losing the rings at the same time.
It's like....understandable to do that as a non-fan at some schlubby company that just churns stuff out for non-fans/casuals, but you'd think Sega Shop would be better / know better than that, attempting to sell things to fans like this expensive shirt which is 26 dollars in 2019.
The other bit that doesn't make much sense is why is it a belly shirt? If it has long sleeves, it's going for being warmer than a tee, so why make it a crop?

So, if you want a randomly midriff exposing shirt of your favorite hero dieing....well here it goes.
The only good touch to it, is that the rings continue down the sleeves, and the 16 Bit Pixel style is continued throughout the whole tee, plus that the design is big/gives an all-over appearance. It's just too bad they couldn't choose a little bit more wisely.
