I picked the wrong size longsleeve at the official store when it was on cinderblock site back in 1999, way larger than it should've been. I wore two or three times, and then shelved it.

I bought one back in 1998, most likely from Hot Topic. It had the heart on the sleeve and everything.

I wore the shit out of it and eventually gave it to my brother a couple of years ago when I was cleaning out my closet.

The heart on the sleeve always put me off btw. Should've bought a used 1996 one back then.

Mine was oversized too, I wore it the other day as a maternity shirt. A guy at Walmart complimented me on it, and said that the long-sleeve Zero shirts were rare or something.

I bought mine in 1996 too, I don't remember where though. I even wore it when I saw them in '96, like the big loser I am. To be fair, I was 11. The shirt itself is long gone.

Also I had about 12 SP shirts at my peak and basically never wore any other shirts... for about 2 years.

Got mine in 96 from one of those mall record stores. I think it was called Camelot? I remember trying to hand wash it the first few times (or not wash it) because I didn't want the metallics to fade/come off. I don't have it anymore and don't know what happened to it.

I never had a Zero shirt, though I've got 7 or so other ones. My favorites are the Just Say Maybe (yeah, bought it on eBay around 2000) and Calling All Daemons.

The best SP shirt was the thin, black thermal with a little SP heart in silver over the sternum.

I actually never had one. I was in like fifth grade when the high schoolers started wearing them, and I thought they were badasses, though. That, and/or suicidal. I think I lumped them in the "goth" crowd in my mind.

I thought about getting one a few years back before SP2 but never got around to it... Regardless, they seem to be one of the shirts everyone, fan or not, remembers from the mid-90s.

I never had one. I agree, the heart on the sleeve is kinda lame. Even sillier are the short sleeves. If you're gonna get one, at least get long sleeves. Otherwise, it's just like a halloween costume (no pun intended).

yeah i have to laugh whenever i see someone wearing one. like the other month when i saw this young kid with one on. it just brought me back to 1996 when I got mine and I just wanted to tell him that he really missed out because, ya know, they were actually good back then.

Had a long sleeve black one in 97. Remember cutting the silver heart off the sleeve. Tragic. The the red, with black longsleeves in 2000. Friends and Enemies should have been black on white.
