The holiday shopping season is fast approaching. But before you get ready to stand in lines before the crack of dawn on Black Friday, we’ve hand selected some bizarre perfect Northwestern paraphernalia for your loved ones. And, no, we’re not talking about those tchotchkes you see in Becks. We scoured the interwebs to find the best products that have a Northwestern logo slapped on them. Check out our complete list after the jump.
1. Mirror skin: Want to jazz up that boring mirror on mom’s minivan? There’s no more obnoxious way to say ‘I pay $50,000 a year for my kid to go to a top tier university’ than to sport these bad boys.
2. Dog Jersey: Let Spot show his Purple Pride with a generic football jersey. Sure, it’s not as nice as his Burberry sweaters, but he’ll make an exception and take a break from his usual designer labels to rep Persa .
3. Toothbrush: Ever wonder how Austin Young maintains those blinding pearly whites? We have the answer.
4 Garden Gnome: We don’t really understand the purpose of having a garden gnome, but this is one sure way to tell the neighbors you’re starting to lose your marbles.
5. Tree Face: Don’t think trees have feelings? Try to tell that to this tree face. He doesn’t just bleed sap; he bleeds purple.
5. Jersey Tee Handbag: If you want a look for mom that says, ‘I’m a soccer mom who doesn’t give a fuck about fashion,’ get her this tragically constructed football-jersey handbag.
6. Helmet Mailbox: A gift that simultaneously adds excitement to your mailman’s day and brings down the value of the houses in your neighborhood. Impressive, right?
