Hello everyone. I'm interested in supporting Ubuntu through purchasing one of the garments on the Canonical Store, specifically the Men's hoodie found here : http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=767

Unfortunately, though I can change from GBP to USD, it appears that the whole thing it basically situated in the UK and/or EU, with prices including tax, and associated shipping times. I was wondering if there was a storefront for these products for those of us in the USA, or another official vendor thereof?

If anyone knows about the quality and make of that specific hoodie I'd be interested - I've seen that Arch for instance has made use of a vendor (Zazzle?) that can opt to put their designs on AmericanApparel garments for instance, or other US/UK/EU worker ethically sourced products, including those made from certified organic cotton/hemp/bamboo etc... I don't see these particular Ubuntu designs on Zazzle so I assume they're not the official vendor of Canonical wearables.

Since it seems that ethical sourcing meshes well with the Ubuntu culture, I'd appreciate being pointed to any other 3rd party stores that create Linux-friendly attire to those specifications, Ubuntu and other distros welcome for course, just for comparison purposes.

Thanks again!
