Japan Exclusive Sonic Anniversary Shirts Make Us Jealous

Tuesday, August 30th, 2011

The Japanese cult clothing store Cospa is releasing 2 Sonic shirts as a part of the 20th anniversary celebrations. Cospa has released Sonic shirts in the past and they’re always stunning.

You can see both designs by clicking here.

That Sonic Generations Green Hill shirt is rather tasty! Damn you Cospa! Release your shirts in the West! Seriously though, Cospa is an incredible store for cult clothing. If you ever find yourself in Shibuya, Tokyo then you should pay a visit!
