MacRumors Giveaway: Win an Apple-Themed T-Shirt or Hat From Throwboy

For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up Throwboy to offer MacRumors readers a chance to win an Apple-themed t-shirt or hat. Throwboy is best known for its pillows designed to look like classic Apple products, but the company also has a line of t-shirts and a series of hats featuring designs immediately recognizable to Apple fans.

The 9:41 shirt, for example, displays the exact time that Steve Jobs unveiled the original iPhone, and the now-iconic time is also used regularly in Apple marketing and screenshots. A "Think Different (again)" shirt pairs the famous phrasing with rainbow coloring.

There's a "1984" design featuring a mouse pointer and Apple's iconic typeface, along with a "Command" shirt, which has the same Command logo featured on all of Apple's Macs.

Apple fans will recognize the "Hello" logo shirt in with bright, colorful letters, and the Iconic shirt, which has rainbow lettering.

For Face ID fans, Throwboy has a new "Face" shirt that uses the little icon that Apple uses to represent ‌Face ID‌ in the "‌Face ID‌ & Passcode" section of the Settings app. It comes in either black or white, as do many of Throwboy's other shirts. The Command shirt is available in a whole rainbow of colors.

9:41 is a thing? Come on. That's just silly. I was in the audience and would have never known what that shirt was about.
From Scott Forstall, "We design the keynotes so that the big reveal of the product happens around 40 minutes into the presentation. When the big image of the product appears on screen, we want the time shown to be close to the actual time on the audience's watches. But we know we won't hit 40 minutes exactly."

9:41 has been prominent in Apple marketing for more than a decade now. Go look at any screenshot of iOS, iPadOS or macOS on Apple's website. 9:41. watchOS is 10:09 for analog symmetry.
