They do have a Secret Base shirt...but I don't see it on the website. Perhaps an email to S7 will enlighten you as to what it is cause I don't even see it on the Secret Base site. As far as I know, it's black with Usugrow-esque lettering on the front and back.

$50 is actually about right for a shirt in Japan. (even more in some shops like Bounty Hunter and Erostika) If you're lucky you can pick one up for $35 or so at a few shops.

But given the strong yen, shipping rates, etc, I wonder if overseas shops can stock new shirts for less than $50.

The SB shirts at S7 are around $30...but yeah, for some reason, t-shirts in Japan are around $45-$50. Maybe printing costs are higher in Japan...

It seems that it is alittle pricier in Japan to get a silk screened shirt. Evn the shirt itself, if it's American Brand, I'm sure it cost more there like how Japanese toys cost more here.

i think clothes are generally cheaper in the US,,i know that a lot people in the UK fly over to nyc to go clothes shopping..

t-shirts in the UK are generally between £20-£30 ($40-$60),,pretty much the same costs as in Japan..

they can go up to £60-£70,,but that is just dumb IMO..
