We’re very excited to announce that after years of coveting and covering the status tote bags and limited-edition fusilli tees and custom jumpsuits of the restaurant world, we’re rolling out our own collection of merch. Like pretty much everything we do at BA, these hats, tees, and (soon) more are inspired by our eccentric, passionate, and occasionally funny crew. There’s a tee dedicated to Claire Saffitz’s beautiful hair. There’s a tee dedicated to the unlikely catchphrase of one Brad Leone. There are not one but two tees that speak to our collective love of tie-dye. And it’s all designed by the same amazing art department that makes the pages of our magazine look so good. Here’s what you’ll find in our launch collection, now live at shop.bonappetit.com; we’ll keep you posted as we launch new products on the regular.
The Tie-Dye Shirts
Which is the safest bet: taking that ayahuasca trip, going to a Dead & Co. concert, or buying this T-shirt? We’re gonna go with that last option. Hand-dyed in NYC by tie-dye maven Kalen Kaminski of Upstate, these limited-edition tees come in two colors: “spirulina” and “Aperol spritz.”
The Bone Apple Tea Hat
This hat features three painstakingly embroidered emoji: a bone, an apple, and a cup of tea. Get it?
Adam’s Favorite Shirt
Be like Adam Rapoport, our editor in chief! Wear a shirt with words on it to the office! This shirt looks great with a nice jacket! Or not!
The All-Day, Every Day Shirt
This is the lemony yogurt sauce of T-shirts. You wear it once, then you realize you can wear it every day, because it goes with everything. And if one day you decide you want to change it up, tie-dye it yourself!
Extremely Subtle Fan Hat
It’s like the white T-shirt, but you won’t spill BA’s Best Bolognese on it.
Legally We Cannot Say What Is Pictured on This Shirt
An essential accessory for die-hard Gourmet Makes fans as well as anyone who enjoys the-candy-that-rhymes-with-the-word-pieces, this T-shirt features Claire Saffitz’s recipe for a peanut butter cup on the back.
The Iconic Claire Shirt
Will an elegant streak of silver hair become the modern-day equivalent of “The Rachel”? Make it happen by purchasing this homage to Bon Appétit’s pastry genius, Claire Saffitz.
It's Alive! The Shirt!
We are all lucky to live in a world with Brad Leone, a man with his very own understanding of how words are pronounced. Celebrate him with this iconic It’s Alive! Tee.
If You Have to Ask, Don’t Buy This Shirt
Whether you’re fermenting garlic honey or making your own miso, the same piece of advice from It’s Alive! host Brad Leone holds true: Crush the garlic; release the allicin. If you’re not going to get this tattooed on your body or engraved on your tomb, at least buy the shirt!
