Funny mugs and t-shirts for people who are hard to buy for

Most of our designs start with a line someone you know would say. There are quote mugs for Red Dwarf, Peep Show, Alan Partridge and The League of Gentlemen, book lover mugs dressed as classic paperback covers, and "Warning! I may start talking about…" mugs for hundreds of hobbies, from padel to beekeeping. For jobs and courses there are the Student Tears range, World's Greatest mugs, and prescription mugs for whatever ails them.

Our t-shirts are for the same kind of fan: Hitchhiker's Guide designs like the Babel Fish and Marvin, Red Dwarf floppy disks, a Great Wave of Dice for Dungeons & Dragons players, and an InterCity 125 tee for train lovers. They're unisex and come in a choice of colours.

Gifts for birthdays, Christmas and Secret Santa

A funny mug gets used every day, and a good tee gets worn until it falls apart. Browse by who it's for (mums and dads, teachers, colleagues, bosses, book lovers) or by what they're into. If you can't find their thing, our personalised mugs let you add a name, their favourite books or a song.

How they're made

Everything is printed to order in the UK. Mugs are white ceramic, in 11oz or the larger 15oz, and are dishwasher and microwave safe. We send UK orders by Royal Mail Tracked 24, and we started out on Etsy, where many of our thousands of reviews come from.
