What people say

It took almost a month too arrive

It took almost a month too arrive and it fits weird. The arms feel like they were cut wrong and they’re way too big compared to how small the shirt is.

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-18

Dear Customer, We apologize that it took almost a month to receive the item, and that the fit isn't perfect—the sleeves are particularly oversized and the proportions are off. This is absolutely not the experience we wanted. We'll share your feedback on the fit and shipping time with our team for improvement. Could you please send us a picture? [email protected] We've reached out to you. Thank you for your feedback; your honesty is greatly appreciated. Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

Shirt i ordered is fantastic

Shirt i ordered is fantastic, my only complaint is that I wear a 4x in every other shirt and the 4x is a little tight, I ordered a replacement 5x so im obviously not disappointed in the company. The 4x will mske a great gift :)

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-18

Dear Customer, Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you love the shirt and are happy with how it turned out. Thanks for understanding about the fit—we’re always working to improve our sizing accuracy. So glad the 4x will still make a great gift, and we truly appreciate your support and positive attitude. You’re awesome! 😊👕 Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

Great Shirts! Good Quality - Some concerns for plagiarism and AI usage though...

I ordered a pack of 9 shirts and love them all. They're nice fabric, good designs, the whole package... Delivery was efficient and relatively fast too (about 10 days). I do, however, have a bit of a moral concern: Some of their designs are definitely AI. I didn't order any of those in particular, but you can tell which ones they are just from analysing the image a little (a rat with its tail coming out of its armpit is one in particular I remember). As for the more bespoke designs, I believe some may have been taken from independent artists and designers online without credit or commission. Now, why did I still order? Well, how much ownership can the original artists REALLY take of most of these shirts? After all, they are almost entirely consisting of screenshots/posters from films & games with some filters and some text in a cool font. Not sure whether they can claim ownership of that or if the company that owns the IP would send a "cease and desist" if they tried... Anyway, if you just want some wicked nerdy shirts for a good price, with good quality? It's a no-brainer. If you're more morally robust than I, and have an issue with the use of AI art and potential theft of designs from other artists? Perhaps give it a miss... It's your choice.

Dear Customer: Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review—we sincerely appreciate your appreciation for the T-shirts and for sharing your concerns so openly.

We're glad to know your experience was positive and that you enjoyed them! We also sincerely appreciate you raising the important point about design ethics.

Every design in our collection is independently created by our creative team, developed under appropriate licensing agreements, or inspired by universal themes and pop culture in transformative and original ways.

Our core goal is to provide fun, high-quality apparel that celebrates fandom and creativity while respecting intellectual property and artistic integrity. Thank you again for your trust, feedback, and support. We appreciate choosing us and hope to continue earning your trust with every order. Sincerely, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

Deceptive Size Ripoff

I ordered multiple shirts in the largest size available, listed as 5x. Being 6'3 and 300lbs, and even following the tip onsite to choose a size larger for baggy wear, I expected the shirt to fit like any other 5x shirt. But it doesn't. It's far, far smaller than any other 5x shirt in my wardrobe, doesn't even fit me at all. Honestly, I feel ripped off in the worst way.

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-16

Dear Customer, We're deeply sorry to hear that the 5XL size wasn't as expected, and we completely understand the disappointment and frustration. You're absolutely right—sizing should be consistent and reliable, especially when following our guidelines. We're reviewing our size charts and measurement standards to ensure accuracy and transparency. We don't want customers to have this experience, and we apologize for the disappointment. If you prefer, we're happy to assist with a return and will ensure your feedback reaches our product team. [email protected] Thank you for your feedback—we value your honesty. Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

3 tee shirts 1 size ordered but all 3 are a different size.

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-15

Dear Customer, We’re sorry for the sizing mix-up. We’ll look into this and make it right—please let us know how we can help.

Could you please send us the measurements so we can check? Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

Shipping and tracking updates were…

Shipping and tracking updates were unreliable. Shipping company weren’t able to deliver to my work so I had to wait an extra 4 days for my item to be delivered to an alternative address. However, the product is 10/10, great quality and feels good

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-14

Dear Customer, Thank you for your honest review—we're glad to hear you enjoy the product and that it meets your expectations for quality and comfort. This means a lot to us! We sincerely apologize for the frustration you've experienced with unreliable shipping updates and delivery delays.

While we work with trusted carriers, we recognize there's room for improvement in communication and delivery consistency. We're actively working with our shipping providers to improve tracking accuracy and delivery reliability. Thank you for your patience and for sharing your experience. Please send your order number to our customer service at [email protected] so we can find a solution. We value your feedback and hope the wait is ultimately worth it. We're honored to have you order again—we'll do our best to ensure a smooth delivery next time. Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

absolute trash quality

absolute trash quality, the graphics from the shirts peel off after one wash, leaving all the other clothes in the washing machine with the residue.

Just avoid. Look elsewhere unless you want counterfeit drop-ship rubbish

Just received my shirts and the print quality is perhaps the worst I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen others mention on here about the same thing. With responses from the retailer saying it was an error. Seems like it’s more than an “error” if we all have the same complaint. I wish I’d read reviews before ordering and I would have seen that this is basically a counterfeit scam. **Update** I now see how the scam works. The items came from China (which is not made clear anywhere on the site). When you inevitably receive a poor quality item, you'll be offered a 20% refund due to it being too costly to post back to China. So they keep 80% of the order value on an order that already had an inflated price. For example, one shirt I ordered at £17. The same shirt is on temu with the same poor print quality for £7. Take from that what you will... Anyways... lesson learned. Hopefully this review helps someone else avoid this blatant scam. **Update 2** It’s only fair that I update this review again. I did eventually receive a full refund. So I’d like to thank Nerdywave for that. I will however leave the history of this review here as I feel it’s important for people to see it and make up their own mind.

Another dropshipping website

Another dropshipping website, quality is not that bad but you can find the same exact product on aliexpress/temu etc for way cheaper

That said, we always appreciate honest feedback and are committed to earning your trust with every order. Thank you for giving us a try. Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

Impossible to cancel order

I tried to access my acount because i wanted to cancel my order, as i discovered the shirts came from China and the designs seemed stolen, and i say this because different reviews say so, and i've seen the same art in other pages. I would believe that they pay artists if they could provide the name of them. Anyway, when i tried to login, the page said the password was incorrect, so i tried to restore it. To do that, apparently i should have recieved a "verification code" to my email, which never arrived. I checked the spam box and tried with a different browser, as the support team told me to, but that code didn´t exist.

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-03

Dear Customer, We're sorry you're having trouble resetting your password—codes can sometimes be blocked by spam filters or email providers. Please carefully check your inbox and the email associated with your order. Orders can only be canceled free of charge within 24 hours before production begins. After that, we are unable to cancel orders, which could result in wasted work. See our website for our detailed policy. We certify that we do not plagiarize designs. All work is original or licensed. If you have any specific questions, we'd be happy to investigate. We value your feedback and are committed to fairness and transparency. Please let us know if you need assistance.

Waste of time and money.

Waste of time and money. The graphic on the shirt I ordered was terrible it looked like it had been stretched out to fit the size, it was extremely blurry to the point that i could barely tell what it was. Didn't resemble what was advertised at all. Avoid

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-03

Dear Customer, We’re truly sorry your experience wasn’t what you expected — we completely understand how disappointing it is when the print quality doesn’t match the product images. We strive for high-quality, sharp prints on every shirt, and it sounds like something went wrong with yours, especially regarding image scaling and clarity. This shouldn’t happen, and we take your feedback seriously. If you’re still open to it, we’d like to make this right — whether that’s a replacement (we’ll double-check print quality before shipping) or a refund. We’d also love to see a photo of the issue to help our production team investigate and prevent future errors. Please reply with your order number and photos, and we’ll take care of it right away. We have emailed you, please check that. Thank you for your honesty — we hope to restore your trust. Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team

Shirt quality looks great

Shirt quality looks great. Thick fabric. Prints look great. Can't yet say how well they stand up to washing, but it's all looking promising.

Reply from Nerdywave2025-09-02

Dear Customer, Thank you! We're so glad you're loving the quality, fabric thickness, and print details — that’s exactly what we aim for! We’re confident they’ll hold up well through washes (just recommend cold wash and inside-out care for best results). But we totally get it — seeing is believing! Thanks for the positive vibes and for giving us a try. We’re here if you ever need anything — enjoy your new favorite tee! Best regards, Nerdywave Customer Service Team😃

Print has come off immediately

It was a cool shirt, and arrived quickly enough, but the print on it has crumbled incredibly quickly - it started flaking after just one wash (low temperature and nothing particularly abrasive or harsh detergent or anything). Very disappointed.
