19 Tech-Themed T-Shirt Designs To Help You Win Casual Friday

Posted on October 13, 2015April 29, 2025 by MCC

3936047949_3088ca2540_oTechnology or “geek” themed t-shirts have always had a special place in our hearts. Like band shirts that you got at that small show you went to way back when, a great tech t-shirt can say something that only the select few who know the same language will understand. It’s like a secret handshake between two friends who haven’t yet met.

There are so many clever ideas out there, that it can be hard to decide which one is right for you. Do you purchase one that someone else created, or do you prefer to create your own one-of-a-kind t-shirt? (Go ahead and give it a try with our Design Studio)

To help inspire you, or just entertain you this morning, we’ve collected some of our favorites from different designers around the Internet. Some are video game-themed, others are for the code-savvy. And others speak about a time before Tweets and Instagrams.

Without further ado, here are 19 tech-themed t-shirt ideas for the nerd in all of us. Which one best represents you? Let us know in the comments.
