Merch @ PAX!
We are super excited to let you know that after a mere 14 years on YouTube Folding Ideas finally has actual merch created with intent and we're bringing it to PAX West 2024.
Featuring art from the immensely talented Jackie Musto, Agata Pankowska, and Claudia Cangini we have two stickers and a greeting card. We've also teamed up with Catawampus Ink for a tee that will be available at the show. You will be able to find these all at the Film Joy/Folding Ideas joint table in Bandland.
The stickers, references to In Search of a Flat Earth and I Don't Know James Rolfe, are a matte finish permanent vinyl and will be available in 4" and 2" sizes. The greeting card, featured in This is Financial Advice, is 5" x 7" and says "keep on aiming for the moon" inside.
The tees will be available online at Catawampus.ink after the show (Mikey and Teara are still getting the shop back up and running after a big move). As for the paper products, I'm still working on those plans. Merch adds a significant logistical element to things, and I've seen many, many peers trip and stumble into a very deep pit by trying to do too much too fast. Fortunately there's a ton of options these days for channels our size, so if these are popular I do want to find a way to make them more accessible, just ask for a bit of patience while we figure out what's the best fit for us.

Long shot but will you be coming down to PAX Aus? Would be amazing to see you
Is here where I request an “I don’t know Dan Olson” T-shirt be made available to the general public? Makes me nostalgic for “this is not a fugazi t-shirt” t-shirts.
Can't wait to pick up some merch and for the show on Sun
Will you be posting a recording of your presentation?
Are you gonna be at PAX this year? You should cosplay as the beloved character Hat Dan. Edit: I am catching up. I see (seconds later) that you will in fact be at PAX west. :) disregard my stupid question. Edit again: do consider the cosplay idea though ;)
Would love to order a Serious Bear Country sticker and a t-shirt in Europe if that ever proves feasible. :)
And if I could attend PAX, I'd honestly just get one of everything. I love the allusions to the different videos.
Love the Serious Bear Country sticker.
I am not much of a T-shirt guy, but I’d buy the shit out of those stickers, they are gorgeous.
Agreed, and honestly if I can only get it in a shirt I'm still getting Serious Bear Country. But I'm a big fan of stickers - my laptop decorations could do with a refresh!
Will be very excited for the shirt when shirt time arrives!
Omg, give me US shippables immediately. I need those stickers inside me
Dan, that IDKJR sticker, holy shit.
I LOVE that one!
I am forced to wonder if you secured the rights to the likeness of James Rolfe's forehead
Very cool designs! Not at all what I was expecting, but pleasantly surprised! If you're planning for more... out there(?) merch ideas, a lot of creators I love went with DFTBA for their merch and everything I got from there was great quality and reliably shipped.
Hi yes, I request a t-shirt or sticker of ape/dan saying hit me.
These look dope!! I know you’re (rightly!) rolling it out slow, but if a gauge of interest is useful then I would definitely order a shirt or two if they were ever available in the UK :)
